Title: Heresy Massive Stateside order!!
Post by: joshuaslater on September 11, 2008, 11:35:14 AM
Post what you want from Heresy here.  Be sure to look at everything on their site, fantasy and sci-fi, as Thom's been busy statting out models from them for his game engine.  I recommend lots of cultists and giant slugs, the new Blight Demons, the Cyclops and just about anything Andy has.  By going large, we save 20%, get free shipping, and help Andy Foster while his casting machine is down.  I will handle the order with Andy and make sure it all gets done.  Be sure to indicate what bases you want and head sprues, as Heresy is a modeller's company, with lots of options.

If someone in Europe wants to handle things over there, contact me!!  I will take care of the States and Canada.

Thom will be posting the stats over time, and the order will take time as Andy is low on stock and unable to spin, so patience is all I'm asking.

My transparent ulterior motive is simply to be able to put these great models on the board!!

Go Heresy!!

I'd consider going in as well. But would it be possible to get some idea of the models that are potentially being worked in to the game engines?

That being the case, his Demon range has huge potential for Devout, and yes I'm biased. lol

Some of the ones that particularly catch my eye:

B'Hakoth the Destroyer (Demon Wing Champion/Personality?)

Hellbeasts *drool* (love those)

Blights

Minor Fallen One

Azaroth the Fallen One (Tim Curry, anyone?)

Hellhounds (Any Warped Lord worth his salt would love to have a pack of these babies running around)

If you buy them, Thom will stat them.   We've been having a laugh at that lately.  Before this whole thread started Thom's already statted virtually the whole range of fantasy minis from Heresy.

After I get done shooting him at the paintball game today, I'll get from him the same answer I just posted, but hopefully he will chime in and give everyone the yellow print.   

I'm excited about all the evilly good pewter from Heresy for our game engine.  Of course they will be perfectly compatible with the games previously published and using the same engine.

Glad to have you aboard!!

Don't forget the Deathbowl figs as possible conversions for Deathseeeker Trolls.

Excellent. Count me in then.

Jason (et. al).

Nearly all their models will be statted up for use in the games.  I will try and sit down tonight and post up the unit sizes so you can at least know who is an individual and/ or what size a warband may be.  Some of the stats will be posted on these boards in advance of the new site.

Cheers!

 ;)  I've stolen enough thunder for one day.  I'll just let Thom post the details.
Title: Re: Heresy Massive Stateside order!!
Post by: joshuaslater on September 25, 2008, 08:58:57 AM
Details are now posted under 'A Call to Rally" by T Prime.  Let's get an order together.

I was talking to Topkick about the exchange rate last night, which may only worsen with current affairs.  If you're going in, err on the side of caution, and figure a British pound to be about two American dollars.  Take advantage of the offers in the store where a model going for 3.50 pounds will be reduced to 3.00 pounds if you buy more than one at that price.  Also, virtually all the models offer a discount if you buy more than one, so please post what you want, we can all team up, and see what savings we'll get.  We'll get the %20 off price discount for a large order and free shipping.

Yours truly will take care of the shipping here in the States.  You can buy me a cheesesteak or death fries at Talamania if you are inclined, but I don't think it will be that much.  So far, we've only a few interested parties.  Anything Brand X and crew want I'll just mail them with an order anyway, so it's really no big deal.

For starters, I'm interested in a Tunnel Dweller, and maybe one other big, bad, demon.  That's a quarter of the order total right there.  Don't break yourselves trying to buy figs at EE prices, as those are a thing of the past.  If you can throw a little in, cool.

Edit: I'll need a unit of Blights and a few of the Demoic Cyclopes, so I'll have to nix the big demon, but I may go for it anyway.  Thom and I agree that this bailout stuff and the unpredictable economy will make helping Andy tougher.  Sigh.

When is the closing date on your offer?
Title: Re: Heresy Massive Stateside order!!
Post by: joshuaslater on September 30, 2008, 09:21:33 AM
Haven't decided on it yet, as no one knows if the economy is gonna tank!!  In all seriousness, I'm waiting for Thomas and Brand X to post what they're after, hear back from Thom on his choices, and hash it all out on this thread.   Let's just say October 22nd I'll post the order. 

If we get this sorted before then, I'll give a week's notice before putting the order in for any stragglers.

Now we're cookin'!!  Because I'm gettin' a Tunnel Dweller, a couple bucks'll be knocked off for buying two.  I'll consult Thom to see what he's getting, and then we'll start crunching numbers. 

Cheers.

Wish I could afford to get in on this one.  However, the Mrs. and I bought a house last month to turn into a rental, and we have dropped a lot of assets into the project.  The good news is that it should be rented soon, and then I can return to a life of indolence and impulse purchasing.   

So....anyone need to rent a house in Denver?   I can tell you ALL about the work we've put into it! :)

11 days to go.  I'm a little saddened that the turbulent economic times have made things tough for all of us.  Sigh.

I just need an answer from MadBrad. Can't spend money on minis if he can find me a redhead in Denver to spend my money. Priorities baby, priorities  ;D

Hmmm...gotta look for ya, Hal.   See if there are any of the Latvians out here with red hair, and no baggage.

As for the job, look at Comcast.com .    We are always hiring.

Jason is in!!  He's gettin' some Hellhounds and a Demon.  I'm going to post the deadline of Thursday the 23rd and send the order in then.  Thanks all.  I may be sending out some frantic pms to get everything straight, so bear with me if it takes another day or two.

Cheers.
