They do this from tiome to time. Put in the reference for the miniature and because they didnt install an option to read 'miniature not avaialble' they just put a string of 9's in the price.

The only thing that would be better than that price are his rules.

The skulltaker must wound any model in base to base contact four times, before a fifth and final wound is counted to kill the model(s) in question. Which is than removed with normal victory points applying.

Yeah, I think I sort of thought the same thing the first time I saw him. Sub-Zero would own the Skulltaker, though.


And Raven1, are those really the rules for Skulltaker?


Skulltaker is such a cheesy name anyway. Every time I read it I think of Soultaker. At least the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode was funny!

Ahhhh, stealth change!

I love me some multi-meltas - particularly the INQ-scale one I'm trying so hard to find - but for those not in the know, my above search yielded a couple listings for graphics from the website. $9999 for segments of the online store ...

Well fixed, Mr. Curren

Did someone realiced that the search machine says "found four models" but only shows 2? Is this the new GW buy 4 get 2 policy to increase revenues?
