Was any of it blue?

I looked at that, it is clearly a reaction to your decision. It's a pretty pricy program and it isn't clear how big a qualifying order is. You could end up with a lot of free stuff that you have no use for.

You'll all be disappointed now...
Lead - Black Tree Design Germans for that 28mm WW2 project I was never ever going to do...
Cardboard - Twilight Struggle boardgame. Two player. I have no one to play with... It can join the pile. But it was a BARGAIN!!!
Resin - little things ans littler things for Ayton. You'll have to wait...
MDF - bigger things...
Paper - for wet palette... Going to try and use one...again...
Books - novels. About Fallschirmjaeger... just for background reading for that project I was never doing...

As W2D says. Normal...

A

PS. No blue...

I see they’re giving an M8 away with March purchases. But there’s do decals, no assembly instructions, it doesn’t even come in a box. Agreed on ending up with stuff you can’t use and struggle to sell

Sheesh, you can get 20% off a warlord shop just by buying elsewhere online, I just did on strontium dog bits. So there 10% seems a bit measly.

I think Warlords customer service is fab, they sent me a free mortar as I'd lost one and a free resin tank when I complained about a plastic kit.

But £50 though!? With dubious benefits!! Sounds a bit desperate.

I also think Warlords customer service is excellent. I like quite a few of their figures and the fact that they’re a one stop shop. They took a lot of my money on their various sales between November and January.

An M8 would be nice, instead of putting a scratch along the car of people who park in the disabled places without a sticker, I could just squash them. And drill a 37mm hole in the engine block.
