The LAF Games Workshop Discussion Thread

Some of the dice designs of late are a bit much though, having two pictured sides (1 and 6) is difficult enough, but searching for the particular pattern of irregularly sized pips, nah.

Surely the lumps and bumps adversely affect the way the dice fall, preventing an even chance on each side?

It would be pretty typical for a goblin to cheat.

Not sure if this has been noted elsewhere, but the 40K Conquest partwork for this week has the Munitorium Container.

Certainly cheaper than buying the box set from GW, and about the same as some online vendors.

If there are any left....

That is a big IF

Well I picked up another one today.

[Lost Egg]

Round my way, if the issue has a good gift then someone seems to buy them all up; some issues there are loads left and others seem to sell out in an instant.

[Brummie]

I have subscription so got this month's 4 issues. Some good stuff for quite the discount. There is a lot more terrain pieces to come which is quite cool.

Also get a lot of paints and inks for discount and many of them I didn't have.

This is generally good for people that need an army.

Otherwise terrain and unique models will disappear instantly as they are of interest to everyone

I would buy space marine taking his sword myself

 Been getting the Conquest magazine.Been good so far.Art book in the next Subscription.

[mcfonz]

Art book isn't free though. Some people may be caught out by it. It's an additional £15, which for an art book, isn't too bad. But it's worth noting it's in addition to the subscription fee. Not only that, they can auto send you out another folder at the cost of £8 when they feel the first is getting full up.

I might well be cancelling mine soon.

[Lost Egg]

That does sound a little cheeky.

[mcfonz]

I mean it is and it isn't - they have included a letter about it in the latest 'drop' but you have to contact them to opt out.

Now, I have called them a couple of times just to clarify when to expect the delivery and right at the beginning of the process. Their call center is in South Africa, and the line/connection is damned awful.

But personally if I have to call to cancel the artbook, I'll cancel the lot. Why go through the effort? Seems a bit of a risky move to me.

[Lost Egg]

Yeah, still seems a bit cheeky. I have heard that some customers have had difficulty cancelling their subscription though internet rumour always has to be taken with a pinch of salt.

It does sound risky but presumably they have done this kinda thing before and it works, whether that's through customer lethargy or desire I don't know.

Is it GW or the magazine distributor that you are contacting?

[waitwhat]

Yeah, still seems a bit cheeky. I have heard that some customers have had difficulty cancelling their subscription though internet rumour always has to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Not great difficulty but I had an awkward call centre call which seemed to work but then a letter a few weeks later demanding direct debit info for the next batch - an email sorted that out but one has to worry about the internal mechanisms.

I can only imagine the publisher is taking a huge hit on this one.

[mcfonz]

As I am in the UK, GW is in the same country as me.

This is all the Hachette who publish the mags.

[mcfonz]

Well bad news upon the horizon which means should you be planning to spend money on GW sets and/or paints, do so in the next month!
