$5 for miniature paint is on the cheap end. Miniature games are expensive anymore. Take a peak at Warhammer 40k. $50 for 5 or 10 dudes is the standard.
Yes, great comment, this is something to consider. However, that's not a standard I'm buying into. I already don't play Warhammer for that reason; too expensive and I'm not spending my time to paint - I wanna game, not be a painting artist. Economy is way dumpstered rn for me to spend $65 on a figure
Thanks for covering this, because you are absolutely right, and even some of the biggest fans of the game are hoping this new, overpriced stuff fails hard.
@@aiRCoft I am one of the biggest fans 💪🏻 3D printing seems like it's the future of wargaming if these prices are what's going to be presented. At least for me, if nobody else. I'll be fucking proxying everything.
@@unhingedmanchild Hell yeah, I'm glad to hear that! (I tried to post a link to a Reddit post from yesterday that you may enjoy in my original comment, however, RUclips doesn't allow links apparently, but the post is in the HeroScape subreddit, and it's called 'HeroScape: Renegade's Rebuke', with full lyrics in the first/oldest comment.)
@@aiRCoft I'll have to check it out 😆 I enjoy a good corporate hate post. Have you heard of Arena of the Planeswalkers (AotP)? It's literally Heroscape (figures, 3D terrain, army cards, hexes, same move + attack systems, etc) but also has a spell deck, and set in the world of MTG; many recognizable cards and faces. You can still find ENTIRE AotP sets on eBay and such for $25 + shipping! If you want a game similar to Heroscape that's actually affordable, jump in. My channel covers AotP heavily, we have a whole community working on customs and playing games online! You can find links to the discords and subreddit in the description of this video.
@@unhingedmanchild Oh yeah, I actually have all three of the _Arena of the Planeswalkers_ games, because there were rumored custom C3V/SoV units that used them, which never came to fruition... I haven't actually played them, but I only paid like $5-$10 for each of them, years ago. And hey, thanks for the info! :D
@@aiRCoftDamn you never played AotP?!?!? Many of us who play AotP find that it's absolutely an upgrade in strategic options over regular heroscape. It's 75% the same rules. If you have a good understanding of heroscape, you can be taught AotP *very quickly*. I'm honestly shocked at the general hatred of AotP that comes from the heroscape community (not talking about you specifically here, ofc) when many of them never even learned how to play. I've been in bouts with the heroscape sub bc I WILL promote AotP and they come back saying things like "AotP is bad bc reason XYZ" and I can immediately debunk it bc their reasoning is literally illegal by the rules; they were playing the game wrong. Dawg, if you ever want to play AotP online (or if you'd like to play heroscape against AotP online) hit me up, I'd be happy to get a game in! I appreciate you spending your time here!

I can agree with that. I just bought into a 3D printer to save money for wargamming.
@@maxwelladragonslayer346 exactly, 3d printing IMO is the consumer-friendly option for wargaming
