Hi!
Its all a sign of the current fad. Epic is GW's new "flavor of the
month" so the once "good" deals you could get have pretty much shriveled
up and gone.
On the positive side, at least there is an attempt from GW to keep
producing the game and making new miniatures. we all benefit from this.
I just keep my fingers crossed that epic has enough "steam" to get a
good amount of releases out. Of course a release schedule measured in
years doesnt help.......
