Not sure how much more the games can increase and stay within reason. We are already looking at either $80 (Saipan, Kursk North Flank) or $90 a pop ! (Fall of France).
Personally, I have never found games expensive when compared to say a meal out with the other half. The amount of time you get out of a game is immeasurable. Days and days of playing hours when all added up and yet a ,meal out is for 2 or 3 hours.
However, I DO see lots of gamers moan about prices on all the forums, and an increase from the prices above I just posted WILL turn the lesser inclined to hold fast I'm sure.
One question re cost of counters. You asserted Larry that they cost more than was expected (in fact said 'naturally', though why natural I can't imagine). If in the know, are these prices not agreed beforehand ?
