I dont play the tabletop but and I have asked our local tcg/comic/minature store why they dont carry Warhammer and his response had to do with the cost of it. So if this is true (and someone that plays the tabletop could confirm) look at this CE. Your getting a mini which if there are only 60k made could be concidered a rare or uncommon mini? How much would one of thoes cost to buy as a single? Now add an artbook and a graphic novel. I bet thoes 3 alone make up the assumed 30$ extra the CE will be. Everyone complaining about the IG items stop, please just stop. In no game have thoes ever been a large advantage. If you really think items, cosmetic or otherwise that will only effect you for the first few levels really gives me an advantage over you in a game..............you really REALLY need to question yourself as a gamer. I'm sorry but feeling someone else has "paid" there way to an advantage for the first couple levels is ludacris. Its a great CE and it is the first I will have ever ordered. |

Originally posted by xenogias Speaking as both a warhammer player and a hobby shop (that deals in after market minis) my experience shows that the "limited run" minis are not really worth much as collectables, more for bragging rights. Warhammer players are notoriously cheap (understandable given the prices for the minis) so the demand for a rare mini that is "just a guy" on the table is rather low. Now if GW releases some special character rules for him then the value goes up some. Finally, seeing as you have to assemble and paint the limited ED mini many of them are going to get "gunked up" meaning if you did find it in the secondary market you would have to strip the paint, an annoying task at the best of times.

Originally posted by Terranah I think they are saying that 60K will stand out above the potential Million(s) of players versus each of the 60K will be a truly unique 'head'.
To your later post: A lot of females play but they tend to be younger folk. I do know a fair number of ladies in the 35-40 bracket (my own) who play but the numbers are a heck of a lot smaller than the teen and early 20s crowd of femme MMO players. |

To all the people QQ ing about the xp bonus saying it's going to "buy people's way to a high level" you are wrong. If you read the actual description of the tome of insight it clearly states that you get 3 uses out of it and each is 60 minutes of 10% xp gain. So basically you get 3 hours of extra xp which is nothing...maybe ONE level higher than anyone if you play it right. I personally am VERY impressed with the CE. It's got things I actually WANT to have, so I preordered it. I had the WoW CE and it was a worthless waste of money. I got a dvd of cinemas I already had, a game dvd, an art book, and a stupid in game pet that did nothing. At least in WAR I will be able to choose a badass looking face, and do some extra quests plus have 10% xp for 3 hours. The sleeper awakes...and rides his dirtbike to the mall. |

Originally posted by Arioch2 Yes, and the link to Play.com was offered on Warhammer-Alliance also. I have preordered my CE. One thing though... I am not a model maker, and the orc model is self assemble and paint :( Now then, I am sure I can put the thing together without messing it up too badly but paint it as well? i have my doubts that any model I paint will look like it should (as advertised) Why couldn't they have it pre-assembled and painted for people like me? ______________ Mark E.
