Holy crap, those blood knights work out at £90 for 5 figures. That's £18 a pop, have they sold *any* at that price?!

Sadly the toilet roll of cash is just better value.

Think it was part of the jest.
I HOPE it was part of the jest. It's so hard to tell with GW and there is always some one to tell you that it has to be that much cos it's a niche market and the quality and if you don't wanna play the game cos you are too impoverished etc etc!

If you're too impverished, then play one of the other, cheaper wargames out there. Such as skirmish games. =p

That would be my response to that lol

the "Related Products" catagory used to be useful, ie if I was looking at a chaplain with jump pack, they'd show the assault squad and the vanguard squad. THAT is helpful. Showing other things within the price range with similar names is NOT helpful.

No, he was using the Australian prices. The UK price is "only" 50 pounds. And now you know why Maelstrom and Waylander are so popular among Australians.

Agreed. They took something that was genuinely useful, and replaced it with this waste of space.

Good grief, that's criminal!
oops! Wrong turn of phrase when talking to an Aussie!

Isn't that a metaphor for basically everything GW does?

Anyone else noticed the "Games Workshop Recommends" panel that's now towards the top of the Recent Orders page when they sign in? I'm not sure white criteria it goes off of, except maybe what they want to sell. It was just pushing WFB Battalions at me, so it clearly doesn't look at order history, since every one except the latest is 40K stuff.

Bitch please, I was joking. You can't argue it isn't expensive anyhow... Doesn't mean I won't buy it though.
