Welcome back, Mike. I laughed at that one. Are you making the trip down to Salute on Saturday?
ReplyDeletecertainly am, although I'll be in the 'didn't prepay' queue. Look for the blue Peterborough Wargames Club shirt and the grey hair.
DeleteMike, I shall certainly watch out for you. I'll be dropping by Ray's (One Lover Ray's) meet up about 1pm - his blog's got details. Hope to hook up with you somewhere as a fellow refugee from Hull :)
DeleteAye, received the same email this morning - the cynic in me says Amazon probably can get the book from Warlord, but not selling it at the £20 price mark.
ReplyDeleteI remember a comment from Paul or someone at Warlord on their forum saying Amazon were "cheeky buggers," putting products up that they hadn't yet got the rights to sell.
Still, from all the rumours and previews, it looks like a good set of rules, so I'll still be picking it up (just at full price though!)
