Hence why I said Magic has the potential to make tabletop Warhammer look cheap. I know that you can easily play Magic on a budget, but it's so easy to spend tons on Magic.

Of course that being said, I think Magic is much cheaper to get into.

My tone wasn't conveyed very well. I was just being the devil on Req's shoulder. You know how it starts. Just this one deck. But you'd also like to try that other deck. And you got to upgrade you older deck with the new cards that came out.

I had the fortune to be able to borrow a LOT of the expensive cards I needed for my BW deck before Innistrad rotated out. Dual lands/Lilliana of the Veil being two of the most notable borrows.

So a friend texted me if he wants me to pick up game cube controllers for $13 so i can play smash. Hmmmm. I'd have to get the game too but he has a copy.


Why is this even a decision? The answer is yes

edit: as long as they're the first party GC controllers, which are running out of stock, and afaik they're not making more

I guess my question is, do you mean first party as in original nintendo controllers vs. some knock-off like http://www.amazon.com/Gamecube-Black-Controller/dp/B000ARPXU0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1400002890&sr=8-2&keywords=game cube remotes
and is it worth it to get the original if they're better etc.

Also I'm glad the true believers have risen up to silence these nasty Coke drinkers. Stuff isn't half as refreshing as Pepsi.


yes, original Nintendo, the white ones are on Amazon for $50 atm

they were going for $15 a while ago, I grabbed mine at ~$25

if you can find a first party GC controller for $13, it's a snap buy, and I might ask you to grab me one and ship it to me lol

How serious are you right now.

v What do? k. that's better


Super cereal.

But really, it depends on whether or not you want a fully functioning, high quality controller. Non-first party ones are pretty crap.

I mean like should I get one for you


Oh, yeah totally. If you can get a first party for $13, I will gladly pay you back + shipping

The dream is dead they weren't first party. Andddddd he bought them for me despite my explicit if then statement >.<

Ha, how many points do you have now? Also, hella hype for 7th edition.

Just quickly plugging in what I have into an army builder, if I took double FOC and normal upgrades I could easily field upwards of 4k points.

The only things I would consider adding to my current force are Spyders. I could conceivably get some Wraiths to run a Destroyer Lord star, but I actually don't like the Wraith models that much. Unfortunately, Spyders are bloody $33 each - which is pretty standard for a MC I suppose, but they're relatively small compared to like Tyranid or Daemon MCs.

After that... I'd work on my Scions force. Could grab another Taurox and a Valkyrie. But honestly I think the Scions I have are just going to be set pieces, dunno if I'll ever run them.


Also yeah tentatively excited about 7th. Psychic Phase doesn't affect me that much (woo no Psykers!), but new Allies chart seems interesting and I'm curious about Unbound.

This is only 1/10 of the necessary number of points.

33$? That's theft. They weren't more than 25€ (I think 20€ but I couldn't swear on it) when I bought one 7 years ago, and I already thought they were pretty freaking expensive.

Is it the same model? I thought this Spyder model was relatively new:

Well I say relatively, but I mean within the past few years.

According to google, 20€ is about $27, and 25€ is about $34 so its not that out of wack. Plus its super ez to get 10% off. In either case that is a bizarrely expensive model. Probably finecast .

Nah, plastic. The only Finecast I have are my characters (Zahndrekh, Obyron, and Orikan) and one Cryptek. I converted my Lords and other Crytpeks out of the Lychguard/Praetorian box.

Orikan was kind of an impulse buy but now I really want to try a Tremor C'Tan list.

Huh, that's just weird. I'm looking at my Plague Drones and see a better looking model that's about the same size for $20 a pop. Might just be Necrons being an old codex so they don't get updated boxes. I know that happened with Nids and Tyrant Guard.

Oh. Oh, yeah, it's a different model. When I looked at it through google the first results were showing me the (finecast) models that were available when I bought. Also was 25€ really 34€ 7 years ago? I didn't remember the difference beng so big. Oo
(Videogames editors were def. spitting at Europe applying a conversion of 1$ = 1€ for their pricing though. >>)

Well, it's not like all of GW's decisions are the most logical.

I'll probably hold off on them for now, but once I get them I likely won't buy anything else for my Cron force for a long time. Unless I wanted to write a tourney list, in which case I'd need a few more Scythes
