Eldar are cool. It is not wise to fuck an eldar, because you will find that the larger half are men

Out of all the 40K races, the only one I would consider having sex
with would be the eldar, as they are proven to have females. I don't
know about you but I find 1000+ men all living together in a chapter
house rather suspect.
BTW, I am still not sure the the SOBs are female. If they are I doubt
they are hetero (see space marine arguement above)

I'd have to agree with you on this MadMaxx. It seems RuNe has gone back to
his devious, moronic ways. Not as if it were unexpected, but it's pretty
pathetic. Thank god I don't seem to get any of his posts though, cause
even without reading them, they still reek like crap. Then again, from the
mouth of RuNe spews unbelievable bullcrap.

<========Signature of the WulfGott Heim========>
Life is only what you choose to
make it,.............So choose wisely.
They say that knowledge is power.
If this is true, then those whom control
the knowledge have the "power" and are
therefore the masters.
Yet those who seek the "power" are the
warriors. And these warriors strive to
bring down the "masters".
However those who are "masters" were
once "warriors", and those who are
"warriors" will become the "masters",
and the "masters" will become once
again the "warriors".
I am one of them, but I am not always
sure which one.
There is a third class, known as the
Fool. Perhaps I am the "fool" believing
falsley that I am the "master", without
ever having been the "warrior".
Which one are you???
Think carefully before answering this question.

Well, the SoB's don't receive the rank of 'Seraphim' until puberty,
since that would be the 'period' of time that they need the new "Power

PLEASE tell me that you didn't just admit to eating Eldar! *ewww*
(There are more . . . subtle ways to go about it - like saying you got
to 'third base' or something like that.) ;)
WulfGott
Hell YA! Me and my wolves have eaten Eldar. But not the way you were thinking. If we did that, we would remove our power armour, and
Virus bomb ourselves.
We first tie'm to a large BBQ spit. Then we start a huge bon-fire. Followed by a slow roasting of them (baste-every 20-30 minutes with
ork juice).
after about an hour, they are done. but you have to be careful of those little sharp disks. occasionally there are a few left on the
bodies. and the Mesh armour makes a nice crunching sound when stripped off of the wings.
Eldar Mmmm Good.

As the Commander of a company of rather well proportioned and firm
buttocked Ultramarines, I can assure you that everything is above board.
Which is to say that there are no need for suspicions, as the Brothers are
very open about their relationships with each other. And, my company does
include a squad of female Assault troops, named Squad Ellis, after a good
dyke friend of mine.
And even if the Imperium were homophobic (which i doubt, as same sex
couples have little chance of child production, which must be a plus in a
very overpopulated Imperium), I think Daemonic Possesion, Tyranid Invasion
and Paying Tax are far more important considerations.
Who says that politics and wargaming don't mix ;-)

generate)
PS And yes, the Eldar women are very cute. We bisexuals have so much fun ;-)

I think she was referring to MadMaxx; he _does_ end his posts with "hee
hee", or rather, "heheh". It's easy to get confused with these long
threads.
It's ironic, really; Rage posts a message about how he hates seeing all of
these posts about Eldar, and ends up starting one himself. I love the
net...
BTW, I'm actually with you on this one, Rage. I'm getting sick of half the
newsgroup being Eldar threads. Of course, I don't like it when half the
newsgroup is "Space Wolf" threads, or "GW Sucks" threads, or "Avatar and
Lascannon" threads, or even "Rage Sucks" threads. But I also don't expect
it to stop anytime soon. After all, the bandwagon is so comfy, and
everyone we know is there...
Besides, if we didn't bitch, there'd be no newsgroup. :}
PS - I wouldn't take the "mere child" comment too seriously. He was being
facetious to go along with the "Huhuhuhuh, Space Marines having sex, huhuh,
cool" motif.

She wasn't talking about you; read the thread. There was another post
from MadMaxx that ended with "hehe...".
> Geez please lets drop this before it

And as for having the whole thing blow up, you might have thought of
that before you posted that worthless, inflamatory, rude post that
started this thread.

If you are "quite mature", you might think about ramifications and
repercussions before you hit that "Send" button.

I have a hard time imagining any insults that wouldn't be taken

You might want to pay attention to exactly who wrote what. I know, that
might be a stretch, but it was the guy BEFORE MadMaxx, that MadMaxx was
referring too, which also incidently wasn't you. And it's probably a good
idea to stop posting anything along the lines of "I hate *******" in the
future, cause it will get out of hand. Coupled with the bad spelling and
punctuation, it's just a poster child for hate mail. And people will take
it personal to an extent. Personal in the fact that it's stupid to post
stuff like this (and you'll will get that sort of responce). So, what you
might want to do Mr. Mature, is think before you post, and then show
people that you're smarter than you've proven yourself to be. That's the
end of that.

Noooo kidding - only someone who is ignorant or wants to cause some
friction will post something like "Wolves are CHEEZY" or something like
that.

But Brian, don't you understand? The entire world revolves around me -
it begins with me and ends with me! Anything you say that differs from
what I think means that _you're_ the one with the problem - not me!
Gawd, I know all there is to know - why are you trying to bore me with
your foolish opinions?

Why is it that all your posts/threads seem to turn out this way? I just
can't do it, myself, and I would like to know why you think it's so fun.
What other reason could there be? Just use less inflamatory language,
don't insult people if you can possibly help it, and things will turn out
fine. And you might make a small effort to correct your spelling and
grammar. It's not a life or death thing, but if you sound smart, people
might start to think you're smart. As long as you try to improve, I have
no problem, because that's all any of us can do.

'Tis a noble effort, Nick, but futile - trying to use reason has been
extremely ineffective so far, so it's best just to ignore it. Don't
waste your breath (and bandwidth) on those kinds of posts. Just a
little friendly advice.

Where did he say he was a fat middle aged man? Hey Kirk, are
you? He never schooled you in the correct use of vocabulary, although
it would certainly be good for someone to. All he did was point out
that you need to think before you act. Odd, friendly advice doesn't
seem to be taken nicely anymore. Also, I find it very ironic that you
tell him to grow up. That's really the pot calling the kettle black.
And we do have better to do.

Actually, according to the theory of relativity, everyone can

I hope you read this post RuNe, cause you've got a lot to learn about the
world. I snipped everything except your posts for a reason, to show you
why people have a problem with you. See? You say one thing, then you say
something that totally contradicts what you wrote earlier. You make like
you want thinks to settle down, and then you totally go off when someone
even remotedly remarks about you. That is not a sign of maturity or
stating your mind, it's a sign of stupidity and immaturity. Now, I for one
feel that you may honestly be above that, but time and again I've been
proven wrong. So, hopefully you will take a moment to think about this,
think about your posting, and just let the crap go on by. You want things
to end RuNe? This is how you stop it, and it's also how you grow up.

Yeah, D! Just for that, I fully expect you to write out a New Strategy

Cute D, almost make a guy feel like he's the most important thing on the

*koff* 'It' _doesn't_ care - over these past few weeks, it's become
totally obvious that whozits only cares about getting attention and
acknowledgement - which 'it' won't be getting from me (if I can help

This all depends on what you think being a pain is. And you know what? It
really doesn't matter, cause this is other individuals opinions of you,
and they'll respond in said manner. If you want to stop being considered a
pain, don't post this sort of thing in the future. I think people have
tried to be more than fair with you RuNe, but you're going out of your way
to be a bit of trouble. If you're having a bad day, don't post. It tends
to cut down on the crap you face in a week or so. If you need to post,
then wait an hour until you actually post the message, and read it before
you post it. That will cut down on problem as well. Like I said before,
I'm just trying to be helpful. but you have to do the work, not me.

Hehe, now it's the "cute" thing. Sometimes it sucks being called cute :)
Oh, the new handle is just for kicks really. I felt like changing it, and
I finally figured out what to change it to. I get bored with the same old
handle eventually, so I play around with it from time to time.

Actually, I've been noticing the improvement in the quality of rage's
posts, both in content, and even in grammar (somewhat). So,
congratulations to you, rage, keep up the intelligent posts. Now, I'm
sure I'm not the only one who's noticed this and gained a little bit
of respect, so you don't have to post replies to us saying what a good
boy you've been. If anyone says anything negative about you, either
it's a joke, and you should laugh with it, or it's real criticism, in
which case you should take it seriously and do what it says, not post
back and argue with it. Now, note that I am not criticizing you at the
moment, kind of the opposite, so don't feel you have to write
something telling me I'm wrong. Just keep up the half-decent posting.

Well, I'm 41 (That's not middle-aged yet is it?) and I have lost some of
my Buff-days tone due to a motorcycle accident back injury but I'm not
fat, and I do have plenty to do beside picking on losers; but being a
father of 3 I have to tell "stupid" when it's being stupid or else it
will never know any better and will never learn the error of it's ways.
I don't want my kids to end up like "that".
I never corrected any grammar or vocabulary all I did was tell someone
to think before posting because the post in question was rude, obnoxious
and inflammatory. Now, someone is telling me to grow up? "Don't pick a
fight with someone who doesn't shut up"? Who needs to grow up here? On
the one hand, this person is whining about how everyone is picking on
him, and then on the other hand, he posts rude insults and then
threatens to continue being rude and flame anyone who has a problem with
his behavior. "Hey, rage, You're on fire! Better throw some more
gasoline on yourself!"
I used to think this person had some redeming qualities and even posted
some suggestions to help him get along with the newsgroup. Everytime I
tried to help, he turned on me and snapped back with a rude comment and
a whine about being picked on. This person is beyond help; you need to
want to learn in order to accept knowledge (or help). Or in the the
butchered words of Bruce Lee: If your glass is full, you can accept no
more. If you think you know everything, you can learn no more. PISS!
Well, I've got better thing to do. I'm going to spend some time painting
with my kids, going to try to stop my sone from kicking my O&G army's
butt with his Lizardmen. Going to cook a Christmas dinner for 11. Got to
string some more lights on the house and bake some sugar cookies with my
kids. Might even head up into the mountains for some sledding. See? I've
got a life! ;)

It's only a con if you are paying that price. If you already have the
box, what do you give a sh!t about how much it costs people now. If
you've already collected an army before the prices got too high, you
don't need to go on buying more stuff at the inflated prices.
Any when you've had enough of the game, you can sell your models for
somewhere between what you paid and what they now cost, giving the buyer
a good discount and making a profit.

Well, if you can't afford it, that's tough. Get a 2nd job. Get a 3rd
job. Do some chores around the house and maybe you'll get an allowance.
Make some money and stop your whining!
If you think I'm going to feel bad because I'm over 20 and pay these high
prices, you're wrong. I make a very good income and it supports my 40k
habit well.
But then again, I had a 2nd job when I was your age and went right into my
career after high school. It's called WORK. It's a fact of life. Get

Gee, I'm just SO glad that we've got such a saint here to remind us of
these things. Let's not talk about it, let's not discuss it, let's just
tell everyone to stop whining. I think it's a VERY valid point that he
made - the games ARE too expensive for most folks to get started on! Had
it ALWAYS been this way then maybe you would have a point - but the
massive price increasing didn't begin (at least in the US) until 1993.
Some of us are just lucky enough to have bought most of our stuff BEFORE
that date.
And if you don't like his whining, that's tough. Get off the newsgroup.
Go find your own newsgroup. Find some people who think the way you do
and maybe you'll find someone who agrees with you.
Not a very nice tone when it's directed back at you, is it? Smiley or no

Thank you again for being exactly the target market that GW wants for
justifying its pricing shenanigans
And if you think I feel bad about jumping your case, well, you're wrong.

Well, many of us here, myself included, are ALSO over 20 AND work for a
living AND paid for our own college educations (my parents did not pay
one red cent of my undergraduate and graduate tuition OR room & board)
and STILL think the prices are crap, whether or not we have the money to
pay them. It's called GOUGING THE CUSTOMER, and fact of life or not it's
still bulls**t. I suppose a smiley face is all I'm missing here, so here

To all
David Dollarhide and Tom Beliech are two sides of the same coin. ON
the one side, we have well-heeled gamers who can afford to indulge in
armies of their choice, in the quantity of their choice. You don't like
the price? Too bad. Get a real job like mine and maybe you can afford
GW's stuff. As for me, I have no problem with GW and their prices or the
way they arrange increases. I feel this just keeps the riff-raff out.
Then there are the guys who think that the prices are outrageous
regardless of the gamer's income. They love the game, but despise the
knick-knacky supplements and the periodic appearance of half-baked
expansions to the game. Really, the Sisters of Battle would have been a
lot better if they had been something more than a spur-of-the-moment
sales gimmick to appeal to the vanishingly small number of women players
out there. And why should I be required to pay US$36 for a Leman Russ
tank when the entire thing isn't worth two bucks in plastic and
cardboard. Money really isn't the point, though. Where do Warhammer
players get off telling the rest of us what we can and cannot put on the
table to represent an Imperial Chimera? Why do I have to paint
everything just so to play in a "real" tournament?
These viewpoints are by no means the only ones. But they are the ones
I see out here the most. I presented myself as willing to help
interested parties install electronic special effects in their WH40K
vehicles. My reason for doing so was because I hated to spend so much
money on a single model, paint it well, and then just have it...sit
there. Unfortunately, the replies have been few and far between.
Those who are interested come in three flavors - some are invariably
consumed by wild visions of electronic marvels which do everything but
dig graves for the defeated foe's miniatures. The talk is almost never
followed up by action. The second type is interested, but hasn't the
time or money to actually perform any work. The last type is intent on
having effects, but know nothing whatever about electronics. I guess I
am supposed to teach them, but I don't see how. They are supposed to pay
for their own changes, but with the prices of the original models
skyrocketing, I don't see how. No wonder no one can really indulge in
this sort of thing.
My reason for dragging my feet on the eight squads of Imperial Guard
troops was because I could not paint them to my liking. A class down at
Discordia Games with Mike McGrath solved that problem for all time. To
think I've not been able to properly drybrush all these years!

Drybrushing is a good starting point, but if you want really good
looking models, you'll need to learn highlighting. After drybrushing
for awhile, you'll be able to see (without drybrushing) where
highlighting should be and why it looks so much better. Have fun.

Drybrushing is a technique, usually used to give the effect of
highlighting.
I suspect he's already highlighting.

Fuck a duck! I've seen some self interested, holier than thou posts on this
ng but this one really deserves a prize for "I deserve to be purged from the
gene pool". I assume by saying that GW's continuing extortion "keeps the
riff raff out", you lump any serious gamer who may not have an infinite cash
flow into this category.
For example, I have been playing Warhammer and Warhammer 40K since 1989. I
am now 22, and earn over $33K a year. I should be able to buy GW without a
qualm? WRONG. I have a new child and a fiancee to support on that wage,
and with my spare money every week I cannot waste it on figures that have
tripled in price in the last four years.
I used to play Warhammer based on my pocket money. My weekly wage is about
15 times more than that, and I had to give up buying from GW. Why? Because
they are ripping people off.
> Then there are the guys who think that the prices are outrageous

No shit, I think people have a right to claim prices are outrageous when
Terminators used to cost $10 Aus for a packet of two, and now cost $15 a
piece. Not to mention the massive increase in the price of vehicles such as
Rhinos. And $18Aus for a 24 page Codex (Assassins)? You can get a complete
rules system for only a dollar or two more (Stargrunt).
Really, the Sisters of Battle would have been a

I think youll find that most players really don't give a damn what you put
on the table, as long as it is close enough to not be a major stretch of the
imagination to remember what it is being a proxy for. Fair enough if you
have a 1/35th scale M1, use it as a Rhino, but don't put down a gretchin and
claim it is an Ogryn. I know someone who uses the Land Raider datafax to
represent it on the table, its pretty close to the right area and has the
picture of the vehicle on it. Apart from the height, its good enough.
GW tournaments are run to showcase their games and attract new players, and
I can respect that. If you have a problem with that, do what everyone else
does and go to another Con.

The way I see it, it would be brilliant to have a remote controlled land
raider with authentic flashing headlights and lascannon, but that is just
making an expensive model even more of a financial drain - especially if you
fuck up.

If you want it spelled out in a language you will understand: anybody,
regardless of income, age, modelling or tactical skill, has a right to be
pissed off at GW for price gouging. If you don't like it, make noise! Look
at Bob Yager, he's pissed off and he'll tell you. If only the suits at GW
had a spark of decency rather than being marketing or management types the
hobby wouldn't be the monetary sinkhole it now is.

I think you misunderstood when I spoke in the "voice" of the well-to-do
player. I don't feel that way, and never have - I have met players who
do, though. Basically, they are of the opinion that if you can't afford
to play with the big boys, don't complain about the prices. After all,
as one of them said to me, "there are plenty of games out there for you
to play. No one makes you pay the prices or play GW games. This isn't
Little League."
This is the same mindset I have encountered time and again with the
Magci players. This is why I don't play with most of them anymore. It
is littley use to complain about cheese - what's the use of having money
if you cannot buy abn advantage with it? THus, the expensive power
cards. And the expensive miniatures. I do a lot of trading for my WH
models. I've been assembling my army for almost two years, and am
deathly afraid that the damned things will be obsolete by the time I
finally get to field them. And from what I've seen, it just possible
this could happen.
If I bitch about the prices, GW won't care. Thousands find the money
and time to pay. They are the ones driving the demand for the product,
not dweebs like me. No one forces me to play, or makes me spend my rent
money on the latest miniatures. I'm just one more peon who doesn't want
GW to make its well-earned coin. Piss on me for being a whiner.
If I sell off my miniatures and forswear the game forever, GW still
won't care. For each guy like me, there's a thousand fourteen-year-olds
just coming of age this year, eager to spend Mom and Dad's hush money on
the latest gaming equipment and win the race to be cool at the shop
tables. It's just no use.
Sending letters to the GW people might get me a polite laugh, but mostl
likely they have no time to even consider another letter bitching about
their source of income. After so many years scraping by, they are now
one of the hottest games on the market, and they are going to milk it for
all it's worth. How are we going to get attention? By banding together.
But therein lies a danger.
GW is used to dealing with malcontents. They simply ignore the
individuals, and create "trouble" for anyone larger. Shops want nothing
to do with anything remotely like rocking the boat - after all, this is
their bread and butter, and who wants to get cut off?
I guess this newsgroup is the only place left to complain. Too bad it
doesn't do more good...

O.k, Tom, I will admit I came on strong and I don't like flaming so I will tone
it down.
I have been reading this newsgroup for about a month now. I have learned some
new things and also been fairly entertained.
However, the whining is getting ridiculous and cluttering up this newsgroup with
jibberish. Of course, this is only my opinion.
What I'm saying is it's no fun, or enlightening, or entertaining to read these
"too expensive" and "too cheesy" and "too this" and "too that" articles. They
waste my time. The writers sound like babies! Discussing is one thing. So are
constuctive suggestions. But this crying.....it's ridiculous!
I hope you better understand where I'm at and where this came from. I'd be
happy to hear your feedback. If "turnabout" was you only intention, I'd rather
not hear from you. (I don't think this is the case but it's hard to tell with
that last sentace in your e-mail.)

this newsgroup has been stuffed with this sort of thread. people just
don't seem to get the point that GW is a company with shareholders, and
a requirement to make as much money as possible from their business.
It's not a couple of mates making figures in a garden shed and selling
them for the cost of the metal. If you don't like the price of the
minis, use something else; if you don't want to pay for the rules, play
another game. However I don't expect reality to have any impact on those
here who have made it their life's work to try to get people not to buy
from GW.

Way to go, Kurt, I can see I am finally getting thru to some of you on
this issue. I was a bit over the top in my response to that Dollarhide
ninnny, but what the fuck, eh? I have been there. Making the same money,
new wife and kid, very little pocket money, it is tough and the last thing
you want to deal with is some asshole company fucking up a perfectly good
time hobby. I won't embarass myself and others by bragging about what I
make, but to say the least, it is sufficent to support a GW habit if I
still wanted to.
It has been and still remains my major concern over this GW pricing crap
is the price gouging, the unmitigated profiteering and downright arrogance
of Games Workshop and its supporters like Mr. Dollarhide. Hell, where do
you think he hides his money? I bet under his mattress in a smelly olf
sock. Remember,
BOYCOTT GAMES WORKSHOP PRODUCTS!!!!! til their pricing is competetive.

shop managers, and the rent on the shops, and the wages of the mail
order people, and the accounts staff, and the delivery people, and the
personnel people, and the office cleaners, and the tax man, and all the
other expenses of a major organisation. Anyway, it's easy to check; GW
is a public company with published, audited accounts. If they were
making astronomical profits, as some here seem to think, then their
annual accounts would show it. But they don't. They make a good steady
profit, not bad, but not unusual for a company their size. That's all
they are, a normal company which has created a nice little market niche
and is pricing its products according to what the market will bear.

All of which applies to every other gaming company out there:
Demonblade, Ral Partha, WOTC/TSR, Enigma, Ground Zero Games, Steve
Jackson Games, Palladium, etc.
But of all the companies I know, GW's prices are by far the highest.
What horrible expenses do they have that these other, more
customer-friendly game companies don't? Does GW have to pay off the
Chaos Gods each month to prevent the Apocalypse? What's so costly about
keeping GW in business compared to other game companies?

But VERY unusual for a Gaming company of ANY size. I'm not begrudging
gamemakers their profits and wages, but when profit becomes more
important that quality, then the company deserves no pity from its
customer base. Why should be applaud someone who would bleed us dry if
they could, with no remorse? Why should I argue for their side of things
when their only appreciation would be to jack up prices again and pick
my pockets some more?

GW, though, has zero sense of the long-term market, though. They'll
share TSR's fate if they don't watch themselves - there are already a
number of entreprenuering companies that are beginning to get into GW's
pockets, and it's NEVER a healthy thing when your long-time customers
are the ones that hate you the MOST! Right now, GW is still coasting on
the success of WHFB and 40K, but if they screw up the next edition of
40K and piss off their existing customers, they'll find that they aren't
as invulnerable as they thought. Ask youself this - why is 40K the only
GW game that hasn't been completely redone in 5 years? Because it's
their most "stable" moneymaker, and they know that 40K's business can
make or break them.

own shares in them, should accept lower wages or lower returns than they
would from other companies, because.....? Why? The examples you are fond
of mentioning are all MUCH smaller, and I suspect that they make little
if any money and are largely run for the fun of it. Good luck to them,
I'd like to do something like that myself, but I can't afford it, and
nor can most people. I would guess that GW employ more people than all
their competitors combined, and those people are entitled to expect to
be paid the going rate, just like all the rest of us in salary-land. GW
is not a cottage industry, so they don't behave like one. I think that

"normal" companies DO run everything - or at least most of the things
that make the modern world what it is. If it wasn't for companies such
as Microsoft, IBM and Intel we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Most of the changes in the world happen because someone thinks of an
idea and wants to make money out of it. Other methods have been tried
and shown not to work. So as far as I am concerned, GW are entitled to
charge what they like. In return, I am entitled to choose whether to buy
from them or not. That's called the free market.

There is a difference between "people who work in Gaming companies" and
"people who own shares in them", at least in my reckoning. I think the
people who actually write the rules, edit them, publish them, test the
games, sculpt the minis, and make the GAME work should be well paid. As
for the people who do nothing more than own shares - honestly, I
couldn't care less. If a company puts profit before customer
satisfaction, that's fine, that's their choice. But if they make that
choice, then I have the right to tell them to bugger off. Maybe the
company wants to please its stockholders, but as a customer, if pleasing
the stockholders (i.e. the people who play NO part in designing the
games, but still make money off them) means that I have to pay higher
prices, then I say they can bugger off.
In short - people who actually WORK to make the products should be
entitled to good compensation. The rest (the suits and extraneous
corporate parasites) mean nothing to me. I've got no problems with game
companies turning a profit, but when they become like GW and don't even
have a sense of TACT in profit-seeking, am I supposed to CONGRATULATE
them for acting like Ferengi? Companies work hard enough to promote
themselves; why should I help if I don't care for their approach? At
least a little subtlety should be in order!

Yes, but if, say, Demonblade and GW pays its sculptors the same going
rate, where are all the profits from GW's higher prices going?

Do you consider Steve Jackson Games, Ral Partha or White Wolf to be
"cottage indiustries"? They're not, and they have much more customer
satisfaction that GW does. What I hanker for is for somebody to
demonstrate to GW the flip side of business - real competition.

So does that mean I should bow down and worship Billy Gates, and
nominate him for the humanitarian of the year award?
Going back to GW - if it weren't for the old customers like me, who
supported GW back when they were a "cottage industry", they wouldn't
have SURVIVED to become this giant that they now think they are. But
their first order of business upon becoming a major "success" was to
start alienating all their old customers in favor of the kiddie set. I
don't care if it's good business strategy, I don't care if it's allowed
them to set up all over the globe.
The gist of my position is this: I am well aware of the basic principles
of Economics, and I am also aware of the vagaries of businesses, both
big and small. But I am not a stockholder, and I am not some corporate
suit, I am one of those little things called customers. Since GW has
proven that I and my values are of no concern to them, I extend to them
the same lack of compassion that they show me and their other customers.
Can you give me a reason why I should APPLAUD them for trying to gouge
the customer? No other game company seems to have GW's knack for doing
this right now.
> Most of the changes in the world happen because someone thinks of an
> idea and wants to make money out of it.
No, that's how those "cottage industries", to use your words, get
started. The crap begins when some bastich in a suit sees that the small
entrepreneur is making money, and wants in on the deal: "I see your idea
is working, and I want a piece of it, so I'll play organizer for you in
exchange for the lion's share of the profits. Unless, of course, you
WANT to stay small forever - we can make sure you stay THAT way, too."
The person who actually "thought of the idea" in the first place
eventually becomes inconsequential in terms of the money-making engine.
That's why I have a lot of respect for Jon Tuffley and Ground Zero Games
- their first priority is the game! He actually LISTENS to his customers
and lets them contribute - the Full Thrust supplement More Thrust is
HEAVILY based on the contributions of playtesters outside GZG. They have
their own lines of miniatures, but don't try to get in your face about
using only their stuff. They also charge reasonable prices for their
games, and best of all, the rules not only WORK but are very easy to
customize. So you see, I have nothing against game companies in general
- only the one that has become a bloated giant that believes nothing but
its own press.

But GW doesn't believe in the free market. Ask Aaron Overton of
Demonblade and Denis Lavigne of Enigma about their experiences with GW.
Heck, ask some of the retailers, like Tim Steed (aka "Tim and Mary") who
post here regularly. I daresay that I'm more in favor of fair wages for
game makers and sellers than GW is!
The problem is not just GW charging what it likes, but they are also
trying to bully their competition out of the market. Should I laud them
for doing their best to get around anti-trust laws?
And since you mentioned Microsoft as a "normal" company like GW, do you
think Bill Gates wants a free market if it won't serve his interests?
Didn't you read about their recent legal case, and about their
shenanigans that would have gotten anyone else penalized for contempt of
court?

company can charge what they like. Now, I will apply those principles to
this newsgroup.
1. Anybody here can say what they bloody well please.
2. If they feel GW is a piratical, unprincipled business, they can say so.
3. If I want to bitch, moan, groan or otherwise complain about GW pricing
policy,
I have that right.
4. If I want to call you a self-righteous arrogant bastard, guess what?

Well, to keep up the sense of fairness, these people have as much right
to post as anyone else, as even Mr. Yager has said. It's just that we
have the right to call them on it.

I believe that anyone has the right to post what they want to post, as
long as it's relevant to the topic or is not a simple ad hominem attack.

Aw! Tom, you're out to ruin this group, aren't you? I mean, what's the point
of even participating if all you're gonna do is talk about some silly little toy
doll games? ; )

The Daemon has many forms. You must know them all. You must tell the
Daemon from his disguises and root him out from the hidden places.
Trust no-one. Trust not even yourself. It is better to die in vain than
to live an abomination. The zealous martyr is praised for his valour:
the craven and the unready are justly abhorred.

I'm not quite sure where it came from myself, but as Ammon said in CLASH
