Now see aff you could have pm'd me and believe it or not it was profread and spun through spell check and so forth yadda yadda. I am not going to go into all of this here as it seems some of you have made your mind and thats fine. If you have any statements or questions pm me and I will answer as oppossed to derailing and such. I find it funny that some of you waited until the last week to start your trolling and I should take that as a god send I guess. My business is not new and many of you are customers with me. I give some of the best damn prices on the web in regards to bits and we are an ever expanding business. We are pushing into our own products and that's what the initial stuff is that we are posting out there, but we namely sell GW bits and such.

Listen, my children, as I pass onto you the truth behind Willy Wonka and his factory. For every wonka bar ever created in existance, Mr. Wonka sacraficed a single Oompa Loompa to the god of chocolate, Hearshys. Then, he drank the blood of the fallen orange men because he fed them a constant supply of sugary chocolate so they all became diabetic and had creamy, sweet-tasting blood that willy could put into each and every Wonka bar. That is the REAL story behind willy wonka's Slaughter House! |

1) Just because you run it through Microsoft Word's spellchecker does not mean it's free from mistakes. The spell-check feature is 30 years old, and most people are unable to spell basic words like separate, necessary, and others without the use of spell-check or some auto-correct feature. It takes two to three pairs of good human eyes to catch most of this stuff.
2) We're not derailing the thread, we're discussing the kickstarter as it pertains to us, like with GeekPlug's kickstarter and the Tentacle Bento kickstater, we're discussing the points of the project that we feel could be improved or should remain the same because they're good.
3)I would like to point out that I am rarely in the News and Rumors Section, so I missed everything until this price increase shenanigans and Tentacle Bento stuff began. And like I said, I wish you luck with this project I'm not going to back it because it doesn't suit me. I don't really play 40k anymore, so I don't need custom heads. I was just trying to help you out in the future.

Hey just shot you 10. But you should take some of the mostly constructive criticism in the previous posts. I am starting my own miniature company and I have had my fair share of brutally honest criticism...... but it is still constructive. Remember that every person who tells you what they think is a possible customer and you should at least listen to what they have to say.
And never reply negatively to any post ever. It is unprofessional. If you are really that peeved about what someone writes you are much better off ignoring it.

Without discussing the merit of your post, it is not on topic to the thread. If you have issues to address I would invite you to take them up via PM first before anything. MT11

The contact us was supposed to be fix on our website but it never was. I am not going to get into that though as it would be placing blame on somone and I don't feel the need to start that road. If you would like you can PM me and we will take care of this but posts such as you just did don't help solicite peacefull interaction on either side.

I felt that it was necessary for me to clear my name of being called a troll. I understood why you said that, since there was a misunderstanding. But I wanted to ensure that others reading this thread realized that I was not a troll, but that our wires got crossed. If you had maybe PM-ed me after my first post to ask what was up before you called me a troll in the thread, it wouldn't have been necessary for me to post the lengthy documentation of my communication to show that I wasn't a troll, and that it was only a misunderstanding.
With all that behind us, I am sending you a PM directly to "Empchild" for further inquires.

Alright everyone, please take it down a notch and stick strictly to discussing the topic at hand and not bleeding over to either personal insults, inflammatory statements or over-defensive reactions.
It is ok to discuss Battleroad itself, but let's try to keep the comments geared towards the new products and the attempt to launch them. If there is a burning need to discuss anything else, I would first invite you to PM Empchild. If this is something that 'needs' to be hashed out publicly, it can be done in another thread dedicated to doing so, not in News and Rumors.
Cmon boys support is not mandatory, civility and staying on topic are though.

This was unneccesary, especially considering the above MT11
No way would I want to invest in someone who is so rude to his potential customers.

I don't understand how this, a kickstarter thread got so vile, so quickly.
As to the heads, are there going to be more then those shown?

At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money. |

Other companys started trolling but it ok. We do have more heads in production as we speak as well as some accessories for 15mm models and wings and bases. Lots of stuff some of it bever really seen on the market yet.
