Yes it is, but if you were sane you would not be here in the first place  :)

Just taking a horse & musket army, £100 will get you 25 packs. That's 750 figures.

Which means I'll still have to throw in another £100 or so if I want to something really big! ;D

May I change my mind? (Shecky's fault!)

I think I'd have to go early WWI. French infantry in red trousers, Uhlans and Tommies. Seems fitting for 2014.

Can I change my mind again?

Could I denote my £100 to everyone at Pendraken, for a few drinks and nibbles in gratitude to them maintaining this last tenuous grasp I have on something approaching sanity?

Since I'm never going to win there's no point in counting my chickens. However, if by some miracle I did win I suspect that Das Reich and 5th Guards Tank would come in for yet more bods and ironmongery, or maybe 14th Army, or the 1866 Prussian 2nd Division, or the Saxon Reiter Division, or maybe something entirely new.....
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

Ypu could send each of us a centurion   :D

I'm with Hertsblue in feeling that any idea of my winning this is pure fantasy but since it's fantasy I'll say I'd trade the £100 back to Leon in exchange for bumping the Goliath up a couple of rungs on the production schedule ladder :)

.. or failing that I'd get a Late Roman WMA army or maybe get back into ACW or try ECW as it's a period I've always had an interest in but never really gamed or maybe I'll branch out from WW2 Eastern Front to the Pacific (USMC vs Japanese at Guadalcanal maybe) or ... or ... or maybe it's just as well I won't win since clearly I'll never use it because I'll be torn so many ways on what to buy  ;D ;D ;D
