My quick write up; Mierce Miniatures Born from the ashes of Maelstrom Games, an online miniatures retailer that, when faced with financial hardship and eventual bankruptcy, conducted sales at obscene discount and continually taking orders on items that were no longer in stock, with no intention of reimbursement (see: phoenixing), Mierce Miniatures is a specialist miniatures company that uses kickstarter to a very large extent, to make finely detailed resin crack. Many of their kickstarters, while several years old, are still in the process of fulfilment… Notable Games Darklands, Darkholds(?) Boneheaded Moves As mentioned above, the company arose from a process known as phoenixing (a process common to the UK, due to it not being illegal at the time (may still be legal in the UK?)). As one can imagine; having your money taken, expecting jewel like objects of wonder in return, only to be told it is gone and never to be seen again, breeds no end of ill will. Mierce has been blighted from its very inception. Further, their kickstarters, while communicative, have run for many years after their initial fulfilment promise. That is not to say they have stopped entirely, only that, this poo poo should have been done with by now. Irate Tree fucked around with this message at 06:11 on Jun 23, 2017 |

Atlas Hugged posted:These guys seem especially scummy. Quite true. Their behaviour since then though, so far, has been better. If only they'd give kickstarter a rest for a few years.

Hey man, we all have hobbies. For instance; divorcing oneself from the financial investment in the game one plays, to see said game from a whole new light! It's fun for everyone! What will one find in this rabbit hole of discovery? Something good? Something bad? Who knows! Either way, you may soon realise - you have spent entirely too much on tiny plastic/resin/metal mans.

Cover in 8th is useless, except for infantry and even then, they're going to be facing no end of tanks and super heavies because now, the only restriction is points and not slots. No, being able to wound one of five tanks on sixes with small arms is not a counter argument. Shooting all weapons from ANYWHERE on the hull is loving dumb as hell. Oh and codexes are coming back, guys! Codexes are coming back! Prepare to pay 20% more for those fuckers, like the big, dumb, consumer whores you are!

It's weird that people expected free rules, being told they'd be free and yet, still ended up paying for them. New GW is good, y'all!
