People have a good reason to be annoyed at the rises.

Now, as the peer brothers work for
GW their sculpting is just as good if not better, the castings are marginally better than
GW.
If you buy the historical minatures, not only can they be used for empire/bretonnians but you can also make a historical army too, 3 armies in one.
If someone said to you do you want 16 figures for £20 or 40 for £18 and you get spend the other £2 on a chocolate bar or ice cream, what would you go for?
Now To the On topic bit. I will listen carefully to any whinger, as a lot of them have valid points. if they say ''Instead of paying stupidly high prices for some models you can only really use in one system, go on this website and you can get 3 times the models at the same quality and can be used for more than one system for £18'' i may just take up their advice.
Now a whinger who moans about the prices while still buying
gw gets ignored, as does someone who tells me to buy
GW.
i really do not understand why people will buy
GW stuff when there is cheaper stuff that's just as good.
I would love to buy
GW models, but whilst they are 3 times the money of other manufactures and have less benefits I doont see why I should. even if i did have the money, i wouldnt buy them.
