EDIT: for the record, I’ve been seen this take on Reddit or Twitter, where I’ve been lightly “engaging” and breaking down the value. I haven’t seen anyone around here saying that the box value is bad.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
Yeah, I think both sides of this are really effectively arguing different points that don't at all contradict each other.
It's a good value at $250 if you want what's in the set. Not everyone does. It's a steep buy-in. Consumers would've preferred more options. All true. All can probably be put to rest. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

The aesthetic is definitely not going to be good if mixing painted with unpainted on the battlefield. For me, chances are we'll likely exclusively play the new figures against each other only (still won't be a good aesthetic, but will be consistent at least), until they get painted, if ever. -insert signature here- |

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!
my group will definitely play some games before I get started painting & I figure I'll just prioritize the ones people like using the most. may look odd for some games but it is what it is
very intimidated by the blimp in particular though if I'm being honest crab? |

The idea that $250 is more than an individual might want to spend is a non sequitur since that's a subjective thing. I said that in the beginning of the post.

Given that the largest miniature wargame in the market today, 40k, penalizes players for unpainted miniatures by reducing their final score, I'm not sure how can strongly disagree with the first point. Many tournaments involving tabletop games require the figures to be painted to particiapte even for non-warhammer properties. Since that is the market that Heroscape wants to compete direclty with, I can imagine that the audience would still feel compelled to paint. I understand that your background isn't in tabletop minaiture wargaming so this may be surprising to you but I assure you my assumptions are based on how the current hobby is today. There is a reason why 24 hour paint sessions are a popular YouTube video format for tabletop wargaming and that is because people often stay up all night preparing for a tournament the next day. And I also take umbrage to the idea that objective facts exist in pricing of products. What something retails for and what it is worth often do not always neatly interset. This Haslab is repeatedly telling you and others who make these costs assesstments that no, this set is not worth the price you think its worth. There is a surplus of miniatures in this set and as such the value of the overal set is not going to be indictative 1:1 on the contents of the set. Imagine I sell you a car and I include 10 tires. You only need 4 so while the extra tires may have value in themselves, the price of the car can't be adjusted to include the costs of the extra tires unless I want to make the sale harder on the seller. That's what the issue is here. There is a surplus of product in this offering which begins to dilute the overall offering. |
