Dont get your order in. Dont waste your money. The more you order from GW now means they win and can keep putting prices up when they like, if you dont order now and dont pay the stupid new price then theyll be screwed.
Well I'm ordering form an independant stockist that already ahs the stuff in stock. Still a price increase of this much just after they announce WoTR which is a game based on large armies is a bit much. But never mind. My recomendation get out while you can. Though he did say now is a good time to get out the hobby as well.
I kid you not. Oakley, CA. Did he really say getting outta the hobby was a good thing? Looks like the LotR blisters may be going down slightly.
Currently a blister of 3 is 15 USD and the new Elf gurds re 3 for Check out my blog Wargaming Shenanigans. What ha said on the letter, is if you are planning on leaving the hobby then it is your choice, though if you are your gonna get a good deal on what you sell. He also said if your leaving the GW hobby then take a look at other other wargames companies which shocked me more than out else. The blister reduction is a sneaky way to get away with the boxes going up clearly.
This is rediculous, i think GW is going to get one hell of a shock to the system when these prices stand, The thing is people will begin to order stuff now while it is cheaper and even then GW will make money at unbelievable rates.
To be fair if your ordering now your falling into there trap and doing what they want, your still filling there pockets, more fool you im sorry to say peeps. FW prices have went up but not by much, some items are down though.
You need to check with there new catalogue and webpage. Ahh ok well i love the forgeworld models far too much to give them up , but what i really am hoping is that this price increase will really show why constant price increases will hurt the business, and that people will understand that not buying from them or their products will mean they will have to lower prices to get their customers back. Lmao price decrease. If they do that thyell still not get many people back.
Its to late for some of us who have been in this hobby a long time, a lot of the vets are sick of the way they treat there customers and yet proclaim there high and mighty and above and beyond anyone. A FW guard army is cheaper thana GW plastic one. Good luck to those who stick with GW , youll need it.
All that means is i get my Chaos codex back yeah the good one and as id be playing mates wed all be good and lets face it if thats the best rules GW can come up with then anyone could make rules. Good luck GW will need it. Walk softly, and carry a big gun. Well if I like playing and want to play what choice do I have? Can I get 40k alternative models elsewhere? Even privateer press put warmachine prices up recently. There a tonne of alternative models that you could use.
Look around and you will find something. As for Privateer Press in some places they have raised prices though in some places theyve also dropped them. Each company has benefits over the other but thats a different thread. It's deja Vu all over again, Yogi. GW raises thier prices at least every other quarter. Sometimes significantly, sometimes, not. Good thing I have enough to last me awhile. My only real gripe with them is that they sell squads in groups of 10 now, instead of the boxes of Oh well.
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. I didn't realize how this effected vet players and didn't mean to Stoke a fire it was just an observation from a new players perspective.
The prices were high to start with fir me so I'm just going to suck it up and carry on enjoying my hobby. Chino Hills, CA. If they keep raising prices, won't there be a point where the prices will be too high for people to stay interested, and they'll be forced to reduce?
Some people play to win, some people play for fun. I play to kill toy soldiers. Shuttler- Its GW who have stoked the fire. Fair play to you if you wanna continue. By all means its a good hobby. The prices ruin it as does some of the mediocre rules.
For fluff GW is far and beyond anyone. Fluff isnt enough in the end though. Been playing GW and only GW for 14 plus years now. These new prices are beyond a joke is the only problem. All theyd do is put thm up again, but on a serious note they have to hope they survive to get to then.
RIP GW? Nah Cryonic I think your right they will probably do it till even the most dedicated stop buying and then they will have no choice but to lower prices, but even if they did then it would be too late no one would trust them, we just got to hope they dont do it anymore. We really have to take a moment to talk about Games Workshop. This recent bullshit by them is inexcusable and it's time for action.
I tried to write a more eloquent article. Turns out I have a lot to say about this, but writing all that out again isn't worth the "uh, nuh uhs" I'd get from monkey-brain mendicants. This is draft three Let's get some conceits regarding this malediction of society down before we begin.
Post a Comment What do you think about that? Pages Wargaming Roleplaying Campaigner. I feel personally aggrieved by Games Workshop's actions since I do not care how you feel in the slightest, and defending GW is a one way ticket to the mendicant's aisle.
To anyone thinking "it's just a game" - you're a fucking half-wit. Go to mendicant's aisle and contemplate this. If you have no idea why I'm angry, kindly pay attention to GW's actions.
I am not going to do a list of these grievances because it's super obvious to anyone that's not a complete and total moron - which is to say every single shill and newb defending GW.
This has nothing to do with money, but GW really thinks highly of their unworked plastic. Too much, methinks.
This has to do entirely with the way NU-GW has reversed the policies of the company they co-opted. So much potential wasted, so much goodwill squandered. I hold GW personally responsible for the gradual decline of the local groups, which used to be a gigantic pool for our part of the country. We were the pride spot, and now a guy I know had to drive miles out of state to get a tourney.
I feel this is all disgusting and anyone supporting GW's current endeavors is either a shill, a rube or just a fucking asshole. You can't change my mind because you have access to all the facts and honestly as a human being you should feel the same way I do. Unlike most of the rubes I happen to actually know what I'm talking about here and I don't have to prove it to you. Read a fucking book. GW thought it was a good idea to cancel Warhammer Fantasy. Age of Sigmar is fucking stupid.
Float around in your stupid bubbles as you circle my turd drain. I'm starting to get worked up, so let's get on with it before I fucking wolf out and have to delete all this again. Warhammer Belongs to Us. Not any more, chums. All this only makes sense if the basic business model is changing. I'm not with it anyway. Damn mainstreamers are making 40k hopeful again with their idiot primaris retcon and tech-up.
They're like all the other sci-fi supersoldiers now, which is what the mendicants wanted. Nice flavor. Much unique? Well, fuck Games Workshop. No longer am I able to support this vile company's practices. This time, we're not abandoning OUR game.
GW gave it to us a long time ago. We made up our own stories instead of following an "official" storyline. We could do everything and anything we wanted because GW was chock full of badass talent and gave us the tools. Updates were a cool 4 years apart for a long, long time - and new editions were generally better. The legitimate creators of 40k shared it with us and we made it big. We literally made worlds with our hands, and told stories of OUR guys.
