A coworker of mine is selling an Empire army for $300. It is assembled but not primed or painted.
My thoughts on this are as follows -
Pros -
price isn't bad (it's about $150-$200 less than it would be retail)
it's assembled and ready to play but I don't have to fix any bad paint jobs
Cons-
I'm not done painting or playing my Dark Elves
I don't have a heck of a lot of painting or playing time
I'd have to store them
Pros-
I'd have an unpainted army that I could easily throw in a box for travel without worrying about damage
I'd have a spare army for friends to play when they came out to visit
Cons-
It's $300 and I just did Christmas presents and travel
So, my small number of readers, what do you think? Its especially relevant since you might be the beneficiary of such a purchase.
Even if you're not all the way done with the Druchii, is the Empire something you're actually likely to play around with?
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't dispute that it'd be rad to have an army just hanging around for guests to use... but that's an outlier. If you're likely to play a few games with the Empire: I'd say do it. If all they're going to do is hang around, waiting for an East-Coaster, I'd say pass.
