Thinking about Kingdom Death again...

I keep going back to the Web page and almost ordering it...I wish I could find a used copy, but it seems like this is one of those things that folks aren't going to let go due to the miniatures and so forth.
Someone push me one way or the other. I need the Internet to help me decide.

If it had cardboard standees I would say get it.

It looks exceptional and very awesome. However, a huge bulk of the cost is in the true Hobby quality miniatures. They are good minis but some of the kits are extremely difficult to put together (Phoenix in particular).
I don't think you would get the value out of it and it's also something that you need to play as a campaign to really experience. We're talking 12+ sessions.
I think you would like the game but I imagine you'd get more play out of those Cthulhu Wars expansions which we're not sure what will hit retail.
I got it for $290 (no shipping, local) and felt sick spending that much on a game. I can't imagine spending nearly half a grand on it when you have so much else to play.
With that being said, when I eventually get to play it I'm sure I'll be on here raving about it.

So frustrating...because the game looks so interesting, but I just don't care to get into all the modeling. I keep thinking maybe I'll just deal with it or maybe even make my own stand-ups. Or use proxies. Like use one of those stupid Imperial Assault AT-STs for the Phoenix or something.
It does seem like a lot of the value comes from the modeling...if you're all up into painting, I can see the $400 price being not so punishing.

Next you'll be playing Dreamblade using wooden cubes.

I already started putting away money for them.

The Halloween "magazine" is fundamental to Psycho Raiders, and from what I've heard the art, color scheme, and typefaces are core aspects of Cave Evil. The miniatures are like that with KDM.

I figure you'd probably play it by yourself or maybe show it to a couple of interested friends. The campaign would obviously be easier (or faster) playing solo. You'd only need to assemble a few of the necessary figs, or use proxies. IF, big if, you're really smitten with the game, then it's a win for you. If not, you'll still have played your fill of it (1-2 campaigns might be plenty), and then get rid of it as you usually do, the resell value should be pretty steady. Or even eBay some sprues or all of them if you think you want to keep the rest of the game.
