Looks like Games Workshop is starting to roll back some of those sky-high prices, and they’re starting with Warhammer Fantasy!
Are you having a hard time keeping up? It seems like over the past year and a half GW has been ramping up their releases, along with their prices.
But now it looks like there may be a different trend forming,
If you remember back in early January there was rumors of codex and army books being re-printed in soft cover. and sold for less.
Brass Scorpion over at SpikeyBits Forum says this:
“Some of you astute GW customers out there may have noticed that the Tomb Kings army book has been out of print for a few months. This is because it is moving to paperback! The new price will also be significantly cheaper too. Instead of the $49.50 US hardback Army book price it will be about $37 US and change. Perhaps we can presume this shift to cheaper paperbacks will be seen in other Army and Codex books over time. We’ll just have to wait and see.”
And checkout what appeared on Games Workshop’s site on Friday;
This 96-page full-colour softback Warhammer Army book contains all the rules you need to field a Tomb Kings army, as well as detailed background information, bestiary, accompanying artwork and miniatures showcase.
Have those prices peaked? What other changes would YOU like to see Games Workshop make?
