These are $0.45 each right now and falling. $0.57 with your shipping :) C'mon you know you want to :)
I've always complained about GW value for money - gigantic prices for ugly models. Unfortunately, my friends play WH, so if I want to game it's got to be WH. Having said that, I quite like the way most of the Eldar look so it's not too big a trial.
Reaper have always been beautiful figures - although I didn't think much of their wargame rules thirty years ago (preferred Emerald Tablet). I look forward to receiving a giant box of plastic late in the year. Christmas presents for all my friends... Although the add ons look like good value I'll never get them painted so I'll pass on those.
Sadly, there'll be import tax to pay over here. :-(

Our club has drifted away from Warhammer with the last rulebook (£50) and the hike in prices. Its a shame because it provided some our most competitive games. I was a chaos demon fan. Tzeentch magic rocked.
Love Reaper. love the idea of 57p figures but I'll never paint them. No time for that when I'm too busy running DnD in my spare time. It is a fantastic marketing tool though and just shows how high Reaper's reputation is.
look forward to hearing how good they are when you get them chaps.
Cheers
I bit the bullet and jumped in myself. I, too, think I may be distributing some figurines at the holidays. :)
Now, I just need to find someone to pain them.
Sorry everyone.I lost my dot on the Gameplay thread. Catching up now and will slot back in when appropriate.
That's been happening to me in a few other threads -- or they stay dotted but don't tell me about new posts.

I am just happy you are still with us!
I want you all to know that I am not ignoring the map question. I realize that what we have is a working but barely solution. I do like big maps and the combats are going to be large and involved with so many players involved. I need a tool that is easy (I want to play too! Not just omake the map look pretty. And our current solution is fairly labor intensive.) and it also needs to be fairly inexpensive. To this end I am going to check out the ROLL20 VTT tonight. As I do that, I wonder if any of you have any experience with it.
Or you could use Greek Letters for everyone. I call Omega!
Might be worth pasting our avatar symbols in instead?
Also, is Taedric entangled -- I see that I'm in the area, but was he affected by the spell?
I didn't see any post on Friday from you. They sure can delete posts, but I've never seen it done for potty mouth...
I didn't see anything that I recall.
Me neither...
Apologies for the slow post. Work was stupid insane this week. Still here, I promise. :)
Those of you playing from work, does your business block Google Docs?
I'm thinking of starting a spreadsheet-style map more easily visible on, say, a phone or tablet, and it'll be clearer (but not as pretty) than the large-scale scenic maps.
So long as I'm at it, I'll throw in my Loot-tracking formula sheet.
My work blocks, but I access enough from home every night that it does not matter.
We use Google for work email and docs so I'm good to go with that :)
I hadn't considered that, but I'll see if I can access that to edit it.
Edit: I don't appear to be able to edit or add sheets at that url. I'll take a look again tomorrow and see if I can at least copy the document to a sheet in my own upload, and I'll look into making it edit-able publically.
Heck, if you're waiting for VTT from paizo, start with roll20.net or obsidianportal.com
It does, sadly, block google docs -- though I can usually use my tablet as a workaround.
Okay well I got called into work today, but I'll work on it as I have time. There's a lot of hurry up and wait here, so it might be up as early as tonight, we'll see.
Okay, you can find my compilation of data HERE.
You can all edit it with the link, so feel free to add NPCs and write down how many of an item you'd like to keep in your "Player Kept" column once there's any loot there. Every trip to town, I'll post the loot divisions here and reset the spreadsheet.
I'm a little unclear on where any current spell effects are, so, anyone with that information just add it as a blue text background in any pertinent squares.
Sorry about this, but I'm just going to mention a slightly different kickstarter
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shannagermain/geek-love-an-anthology-of -full-frontal-nerdity
My dear friend Janine is one of the editors of this work of fiction which has hit its stretch targets and is inventing new ones. Not everyone's cup of tea I'm sure, but almost by definition anyone contributing to a Paizo forum is a geek...
That link is broken on account of a space missing between "of" and "-full". Not sure if that was intentional to keep from hyperlinking, so I'm not going to [url] insert the amended link. If it wasn't intentional, you might consider doing so, though.
Oops. This seems to be because the whole line is too long for the text box and it automatically puts in a space. Well spotted - just delete the space when (if) you paste it into the address line.
Or, for your convenience, simply FOLLOW THIS LINK!

Aidan, Thank you for your work! I see you combined your map with Seneca's spreadsheet. I really appreciate both of your contributions!
As for the Kickstarter... Wow, Looks pretty cool and a RPG sessions with the lovely ladies there as one of the levels? I seriously need a 12 step program away from Kickstarter!
I hadn't noticed the option to role play with them. Mind, role playing with Janine is an experience hard to survive...I mean describe.
Sorry, for some reason I am not gettin a dot on this campaign anymore. I will update when I get home tonight.
Aidan twiddles his thumbs and might just make a daisy chain.
Speaking of languages, I'm a fan of using some basic analogues so you can tell if there's a theme. I.e. they keep saying the same word, or say someone's name, etc. Also, I think that inter-pc speech should be spoilered as the labeled language, but, everyone might as well read it, as metagame is worth not being bored as post after post of gibberish (to your character) flies by.
my group uses Irish as gnomish, Latin as thassilonian, Greek as Draconic, Welsh as Sylvan, Hungarian as halfling, German as dwarven, Russian as orcish, etc.
How about good old fashioned common?
Taedric, having lived through the goblin war, is a bit paranoid about being spied upon... and figured that Lizardfolk who could barely speak Common would likely not speak Gnomish at all.
Tell you what, everyone take a point in linguistics next time and we'll all learn Ulfen. Pretty safe bet that no one else will speak that. And just think how much fun the private lessons with Ellie would be...
