@BuddaHotPopcorn don't buy a 2000pt army in one go. Play smaller games, have some self controll and buy a box a month instead of three. i can name a few.
@johnkerry7 That is what I do, and it does work. Once you have saved money enough pluck up the courage to buy together the rulebook, the army bok, a batallion and the cheapest general to have the core, then plan carefully your army and build it very very slowly with a more gradual expense.
@ilania95 yup, i gather enough to buy another vampire battalion box, havent purchased a GW thing since early last month, and im still painting the box set. I really really want some dragon princes to make into blood dragons, however im waiting till i gather enough money to not make the purchase hurt my other duties. Self control, you and i have it, some people need to learn it.
@johnkerry7 In the same way, I bought WH starter set (Island of blood) in February, then I added in spring a hero and a small regiment to the (alredy working) skaven army in it, and now I'll use a relatively small part of the big amount of money I have saved to buy the batallion and some other stuff. So I have built a more or less 2000 points army, but in a 5 months period and. I hope our exemple has taught someone else how good self control is:-)
As helpful as this is, without the verbal description of what he's making reference too its a tad hard to follow if your not an avid player. However I still find it interesting
My biggest complaint is the PRICES i still don't get how you guys can justify price increases, in aus it coes $50 dollars for a core unit box set $50!!! are you guys just going to keep increasing the prices until a box set costs $100? or $6 for your paint i can't get the SAME PAINT for $3, its flat out robbery.
The templates seem interesting but this whole set of *Gaming Aids* is sadly another release from GW in attempts to make money off useless crap. The combat resolution counter has to be one of the dumbest game tools I have ever seen but it did make me laugh thinking about someone being dumb enough to use it.
I guess there sold out in different parts of the world, they had so many copy's dedicated to different places, i think the UK still has copy's left, but the U.S. of A. is out of both, still have the Engineer's set, but the dice are gone.
This stuff is a load of fancy shit that will just hinder the game GW profit whoring at work! If you buy this stuff then you have more money then sense!
Right. How dare someone pay for something frivolous that they enjoy.
While These are obviously gimmicks and fancier versions of what is already out their. What is wrong with spending an extra 30- 80 bucks on a game that already cost 400+ just to have a competitive army. By your logic, Sense would mean not buying anything from GW at all. At the end of the day, you have physical models on a shelf that you put together, painted, and ultimately created.
That blast template is kind of stupid. It's just going to create arguments whether something is being touched by then 5" template, or whether its just under the fancy spikes and all that crap on the outside. And hard rulers are terribly awkward to use on the tabletop.
And at the end of the day, this is just painted plastic that looks like it's on the verge of breaking at any moment. The prices are outrageous.
@4rkadi in what way? in that you cant buy a 2000pt army in one go? maybe, but then again nobody is forcing you to play "competitive" tournaments. GW after all produces games that are meant at its core to be played for fun with friends...i.e spend $150 or so and play a 1000pt game and be happy.
All this stuff quite useless, exept the Engineer's Ranging Set, and very expensive too. Rules comes so dissapointed. Almost all of my friend leave warhammer for another gaming system. Great thinking GW, if you want to destroy fantasy battles you going just right.
I don't Think they will go under, they sold out of both the gamers and collectors editions in under 3 days. The Collectors edition netted them about 2Mill alone.
If the Gamers edition had just as many copies, i say that's at least another 1.5 mill. that's over 1 million dollars a day for 3 days. I really doubt they are destroying their game of warhammer.
@papanurgle25 Everyone is commenting that, but i really dont belive they read any comments.... it's sad, because their profit would maybe double in a short time period if they did lower the costs. ITS ALOT of people whom LOVE pc/console games that would absolutely LOVE wwarhammer, but why would thye bother? 50 euros for a Brand new game and maybe 500 euros for an army + paints to get going. Not quite comparable, and kids can forget to have enough money. Really sad to see this franchise die out.
@Anilithun no they wouldnt. PC gamers, most, play those games BECAUSE they dont like tabletop games. Also, keep in mind, GW is unlike ANY other table top game in that they have retail stores etc etc. Not to mention, the cost of living has increased so the price of stuff has gone up for almost EVERYTHING. It is not GWs fault if companies that employ people dont increase wages. And another thing, if GW lowered there prices they would suffer what people like to call shortag.
@Anilithun PP expereinces this almost every day. If all of a sudden a land raider was retailed at $30, they would not be able to stock the amount needed to keep up with demand. They would either have to keep the supply low, or they would have to increase production that would in turn increase the price again to cover the production price. So, you have a choice, you can either wait weeks upon weeks for your brand new models and rules
@Anilithun (if prices lowerd and supply ran out), or bugdet your life base upon what YOUR job pays you. Again, it is unfair to bash GW and suggest that they are doing anything OTHER the running a company. Remember econ 101, as cost of living goes up, the ones hit hardest are older people (Social security or something similar in your nation) and minimum wage earners, simply because there wages dont usually go up as fast to keep up with COL.
@johnkerry7 its just that now, ove ther past 15 years or so, the table top gamers (who i might suggest the majority of work at lower end wage jobs) are finally seeing the reality of cost of living against wages.
@fear432 I like them, the decoration looks great. Especially that little 'line of sight' arrow isn't reduddant, clears a lot of issues when gaming. :)
Of course they are things people already own, although it is nice to have some pretty shiny stuff. Why else, for instance, renew the model range? I like the decorated templates etc, and it gives a bit of a in-universe feeling. And personally I just think it looks cool. :D
sure but they'll charge a fortune for them and generally it's the newer players who buy into GWs gimmicky items, such as this one. Of course, some of those items are pretty neat, but honestly all or most of them can be found in high school level geometry sets
The way the demonstrator rolled some dice before charging his models in at around 1:24 looks like it could be one of the changes in the new rules like rolling for the distance of charge like war of the ring?
Great-looking stuff, but I'm sure about 90% of the price will be for the Citadel brand rather than actual utility: Just wait for some clones to get cracked out ;)
they look very nice but aren't 100% necessary, it isn't difficult to work out combat resolution. and what is wrong with a tape measure? Saying that I will still probably get them :P
some might be useful but most can be made for a fraction of the cost. For example the corner thing to test arch of sight....folt a pice of paper at a 90 degre agle and there you are.
