It is with a heavy heart that I am announcing the shutdown of Battleroadhobbies.com. This was not a decision I came to easily and has to do with family issues as well as not having the time to work on the Katana Miniatures games project. Based on these factors as well as a few others I have decided that the best course of action is to shut down Battleroad Games and Hobbies LLC and focus my energy on Katana War of the Oni as well as my family. Sadly their is not another company willing to take up the mantel of ownership so it's just best to shut it all down.
Based on all of this I have decided it's best to conduct a 40% off sale of all items in stock on the webstore. When checking out use the code closeoutsale and that will give you the 40% off. It has been a great few years operating BRGH and meeting many of you personally. I look forward to bringing our community my teams Katana miniatures game in 2014 and would like to thank all of those who have supported and shopped with us over these past few years. We will be officially shutting down Dec 31st 2013 at 1159pm so the sale will run until then.

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! |

Correct I have always ate the extra costs. Marcus I knew what he meant but if you type it in you get the same result.

First of all I would like to say thank you to everyone who posted and emailed their well wishes. The compliments on the our level of service are very appriciated. To that end we will be open for 11 more days so make sure to take advantage of the sale as a lot is still available. Once the website goes down that's it for us.

Sorry for the delay in response as I honestly have been swamped lately. Their are no perry kits left as one customer bought out of remaining stock of Perry, Warlord, and Victrix so since they got cleared out I just removed them from the store.
We still have tons of bits left and only 6 days until we close so jump in and get what you can at insane prices while time lasts.

Why? The reason for closing is for family issues and to work on the Katana minis project.

Mine, too. I'd email via website but am concerned that things have gone wonky. Please let us know how to resolve? I've gotten 20+ emails in the last 24hours after the one order. All are autoemails...
ETA - last email was at 8:58PM Eastern time.

Maybe set the store's e-mail to auto archive/goto a different folder and skip the inbox?
