....wut? Dude miniature market does one of these huge sales every 6 months like clockwork. Very few things are discounted past 40%, and considering that DGI and Miniature Market both used to sell at 30% off regularly that's not a huge deal. Game isn't dying, posts like this don't help anyone out. If you've got some concerns shoot me a PM and I'll do my best to rectify them. It's not just this, there's been a pattern for almost a year now. There comes a point when you're losing players because you're losing players. That is a good way for games to die, especially when the company won't even admit there's a problem. I have to drive 45 minutes each way to get one game and when I do, there are literally more 40K players there on what used to be the WM/H night. Our last two tourneys didn't fire, though there were the holidays and the weather. I can rarely tolerate playing on Vassal, so I rarely play at all. I already struggled with simply playing enough to not lose even more skill when this game is so demanding. I felt like I was finally figuring it all out and maybe I could not throw perfectly winnable games so often, but now I can hardly get games at all... and it just doesn't feel worth it anymore. I considered going to a store tonight but they're doing the JML, which is terrible, so I might just be making terrain... for a game I'm not sure I'll still be playing in six months... I considered playing Khador in the League but I'm sure as hell not adding a second faction now. Regardless, my plan is to trade away the little bit of Khador that I have and instead get some models for Path to Glory because we have a Warhammer Store here now and they're running it. Maybe even a budget Magic deck if I'm feeling masochistic. I will keep an eye on what's going on with WM/H. I don't intend to sell my trolls or switch outright but I could stand to get some perspective and play other games for a while. Seriously, you are burning out. If you try to force yourself to stick around you will grow to resent it, which will really burn any possibility of fun completely. You need a nice long break, both from the game and anything having to do with the game. And if it turns out you never come back because you are happier with something else, great! If you start missing it then the game will still be here for you. One thing is sure: if you continue clinging to something you don't enjoy for your leisure time, you will grow to hate it and all things associated with it and then you will still end up leaving, but not before engendering a lot of ill will on both sides. And then you won't be back, but not because you found something better but because you are upset, and that's not how you want things to end, trust me. So just take a break, swear off WMH games and media for a while. It will do wonders for you. Its important to spot this kind of fun rot before it really takes hold, and it's better to choose to take a break before you need to take one, you know?

Steelhead box was 20+ available, now out of stock (not surprising at $15). Their metal versions are going for $27 and $27.50, and still have about 10 as I am writing this.
I really wish I had my tax return come in right when this hit...

The good news is that by the time I get home, so much will be sold out. Think how much money I will save by not buying!

You clearly then do not have enough Winterguards. I ordered both WGI (third) and my second unit of Bombers cause nothing says Boom like double bombers with Butcher 1 ;-)

Getting away from inlaws to play unbound = good.
