Reply To: Why do all our wargames rules have to cost the bomb?

Honestly I think it actually depends on what you are looking for. I can point you in the direction of rule sets that don’t cost the earth. Look at the Osprey rules… ( Gas lands of Billion Suns) They are well made and cost between £10-£15 thats the equivalent of the chespo rulesets back in the day.. There’s also still lots if companies that produce rule sets that follow the traditional formats. However like all things inflation plays a part. If you look at the average hardback ruleset from my view it’s around £25-£30 for most of them, however I am happy to pay that as a rule set because it’s the price of printing etc and they are competing with an online content. My current favourite set of Rules is Mortem et Glorium, which I actually spent £50 on the compendium which included dice and tickets a bag and also Quick reference sheets. The rules in their own as re about £25 it’s a great set of rules and all the 600 plus army lists are available on line for free which in my view is the correct way to do it.
