I think if you pose such a question on a main site such as this, you will always get the response to buy it. Else why would people be on this forum?
Trying to think in an unbiased nature though, I have seen the miniatures are they look really nice, despite the restic they are using, they are miles ahead of other companies that have been using this medium for years. I have not read any of the fluff yet, but I hear good things regarding the storyline. The rulebook certainly looks excellent with plenty of artwork and fluff. It does lack pictures of painted miniatures and offers no insight to the hobby aspect of gaming. I only had a quick flick through the rule book, so I could have missed something. It would be good if people could pick me up on this as I dont want to give the wrong impression. I am dyslexic, so reading the fluff online isnt really that great for me, so im waiting until I get my package on Monday.
CMoN support is very worrying imho. I am a very patient person with a lot of things (in my opinion ofc) and I can live with setbacks and errors made due to miscalculations etc. I do have a hard time with CMoN though due to the complete disregard to communicate with people. Almost GW like, but at least GW are enthusiastic about their product. At present, im not sure CMoN personnel turn up for work tbh. No news about anything that is on their to do list, no enquires to customer on how they view their product, no hype, excitement nor enthusiasm at all. If they arent interested on creating a custom need for their product, then why do we need it if they arent interested themselves?
I would like to think that the leadership that is somewhere within the company, I hope, would get a grip of things before things just drop off and end up a small collection of models people dont ever use anymore.
My suggestion would be to wait until things start moving and see if you appreciate how CMoN run things. Some people dont have buckets of cash to throw around on every new toy on the market and require an engaging and exciting company to help keep their game alive and maintain the NEED for the product. Ofc I really want things to improve and some people may disagree with my latter part of my review. I would hope these people could explain any differences in an unbias standing though, as suggesting everything is awesome because you like your new shiney toys can get a bit tedious and boring tbh. This by no means I insist people should agree with me either, as nothing improves with stress testing, including peoples perceptions.
I have tried to be as unbias as possible here. I would hope I am proved VERY wrong in some aspects I have mentioned above.
I forgot to cancel my pledge and thought "Oh Crap!" When I realised this too late, lol. I did however, pick up all the additional boxes of units etc afterwards, as I thought I might as well try and be positive with my accidental purchase. Hehe. I wait in hope that a more upbeat and productive environment evolves from the silence we are going through at present.
