ORIGINAL: wodin Looks like SSG is going down the lines of HPS. Same game different theatre full price. The expansion pack looks dead as far as wargames go. Wodin that is such a disappointing approach to this game and our hobby and in fact, it surprises me that you still bring it up after the huge debate during the release of Battles In Normandy. There is simply no logic to arguing this tact. When Trivial Pursuit releases with a new board and cards or card alone, prices are basically par. Each ASL module likewise - forget we paid $80 for the rules alone! Now, if you argue that digital download should provide savings over physical distribution you're onto something. But even now, Matrix has shown that point to be moot. Not every Matrix title releases at $50USD - and physical options are more expensive. No, I'm now happy with this model. When will people get over this "expansion pack" mentality? Show me how BiI even closely follows the feel and interface of KP. Which brings me to Benpark's statement: quote:
ORIGINAL: Benpark One thing that I would like to see done is, for a smaller fee once every new game is out, is to retrofit the previous versions with the new features. It would keep the old ones fresh, and really draw those on the fence to the series. Yes, agree. However, if the programming need is vast, I'd pay for it. Yet, like the Tiller series, I hope one day that SSG's DB series may easily and regularly be retrofit. That would add the value that a premium price demands. quote:
ORIGINAL: HercMighty I have a real hard time going back to Korsun just because of the changes that have been made. Yep, totally agree. Adam.
