Hi Guys,
The price on the UK website is expensive, 50UK pounds equals over $120 Cdn. BUT I have been talking to the mail order trolls here in Canada, they are going to list the game for $85 Cdn.
If you consider how much you get, the cost per stand now is very reasonable. If you buy 6 sets, you get three full mountains, a small ruined city, lots of river terrain and if the unit costing is anything like warmaster, about 1500 points of elves, humans, dwarves as well as about 5000 points of goblins.
If you combine this with buying from a non-gw shop, you can negotiate a further 10% off (more depending upon how GW prices it)
So, you get enough units for a lot of different games for alot less than some comparable system.
I agree that the models are simplistic, but the models are well formed and since they are plastic, they are easy to modify. I have spent alot more on irregular miniatures and found that the quality was so bad that I will never buy from them again. (I have ended up storing the models for a few years and finally just gave them away because I would never use them in a game).
So, I would suggest that if you are going to buy the game, call Cdn mail order and preorder the game. But be quick, they did not know how nice the game was and only ordered 50 units and they will sell out quickly.
best regards
Dalton
