Who is listed in the rulebook?
Could you drop us a brief?
More from curiosity: Am I listed? (Hope not)

ditto
well done
it's a nice feeling to have your name published in a set of rules for all to see
Says Jimbo whose "real" name has been mentioned in too many rule sets and magazines to mention in polite company.

Jimbo and gang,
Thanks for the congrats!

I agree. I have been "forgotten" in too many books!
The shock for me comes from not being in JJ's inner circle. I sent him some E-mails and did a lot of work and playtesting, but I didn't think I'd ever get acknowledged. There was always someone sceaming over me and I'm not much for that.
I have say that even with all the decisions I disagree with, I'm glad it's JJ in charge and not someone else. He's a decent guy underneath all and that's the kind of boss I like.

I really like your stuff, Jimbo.
Know where I can get a copy of "Fuchs Zwei?"
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

I was screaming about this for awhile! Anyone remember? Epic used to be a pretty affordable game to play. Now Land Raiders are a luxury item. I would try and use your older stuff for the time being.
Geez, I know the new ones are better, but can you imagine back in the day playing AT/SM with 4 Land Raiders costing as much as they do now? I know the new ones are metal, but they aren't making plastic ones. I can remember playing games with 30 Land Raiders on the table among other things. I think those days are gone. And six plastic Warlords for $30 versus $30 for a one metal one now. Nice.
BTW, I found some old minis of mine of the first generation AT/SM Predators. Anyone remember those? Haha as minis, the quality really SUCKED! I really didn't like the MkII or III versions but absolutely love the IV versions. Anyway, it surprises me how crappy some of GW minis were at the time, yet how much we loved them. There is just no comparison compared to today.

But back to the point of the thread, yes the costs for the stuff can be quite steep.
