I love their concept for a game. Really nice minis. Higher than GW prices. With other cool old west skirmish games to choose from, in my area anyway, people keep commenting on how cool the game looks but no one is taking the plunge. So for the few people who are interested in wild west/old west/weird west skirmish gaming they all just go back to blackwater gulch, warhammer old west, Gut Shot!, etc. etc. with other minis and continue ignoring this one.

Again I hope these guys stay in business and do well enough they can start offering maybe some better bundle deals or something, maybe figure out how to lower their cost enough to lower their price point or something. But $13++ or more per infantry figure is a little too steep for my taste, even for a skirmish game. Yes they have been doing that $5 mini thing … which is a step in the right direction. They have army “bundles” ($264 bucks??). For a company like GW this sort of pricing is one thing. Say what one will about them (and I am no fan of GW these days) but they have a huge community around their games, in most major cities one can easily find people who play GW games, stores that support them, etc. there are many tournaments, etc. etc. For this game there is no product support really, unless your local game shop or game club happens to be really into it for whatever reason. At this point for this game it is buy it off the internet at pretty staggering prices and then maybe play with a few friends … at higher prices than one would pay for even GW minis. I’m sure anyone who participated in their kickstarter is singing their praises though … your bought in … its either dump your stuff on eBay or cross your fingers and hope it catches on. Best of luck to Wild West Exodus … again I like the theme and their hutzpah for doing something other than standard sci-fi, fantasy or basic steam/arcana punk.
