I for one am convinced that no-one has ever retired with  HER private jet to the Bahamas on the back of screwing the last penny out of poor wargamers (


I feel the need to clarify this, as that is not quite correct.

It is rumured that  Miss Whiplash has managed to purchase a microlight based on her "sevices" to one of the Forum members.

Due to the need to be descrete I cannot mention the said persons name, but I think we all know who that is !!  ;)

Not perhaps a resident of a bridge related town ?  One that used to be in a cheese advert.....

Thanks for all the comments so far, we're very lucky to have such a great bunch of customers!  Several of you are slightly mad, but you have to take the rough with the smooth...  :D ;)

WHY????????

Because we're constantly making more vehicles for you, so it's time for someone else to get their wishes fulfilled...  :D :P

Couldn't you slot in some armoured horses for the Mongols in a lunch break or something...or are the words 'lunch break' too non-pc? :)

I do have those on the list to be done, but we've got Techno too busy already with all the Warband stuff at the moment.  Once those are done I'll try and fit them in for you.

I object! No-one on this forum is completely untainted by madness ... we're on the forum for goodness sake! I think we start at "barking" and go down (or up) from there.

Thanks for the background reasoning, makes economic sense really. Still some of the best sculpts out there.

Very interesting overview of the reasons for the price increase. Still very good value IMHO :)

That's your own fault, If you been more vocal in your support it might have made them appear even quicker.  ;)

It'd take me and Dr Emmel a (proper) lunchtime just to burr the detail  off just two or three figures and horses, before even slapping any greenstuff on the wee chaps !

Leon,
Thanks for the "State of the Pendraken" message - very informative. But -uh- is this sign "£" not the same as this sign $"?
I may be in trouble with the Missus if it is -like- different!!

The exchange rate isn't too bad at the moment, it's got a lot better since the back end of last year, so £1.00 is currently about $1.45 I think.
