NO

...uh, not yet.

It's tempting. All of the Tide of Iron games there are about $400 with shipping normally; this sale with shipping would be $165.

I'm thinking of asking for this to be my Christmas present but I probably should just try the 2nd ed core set and not all of it.

Man, that is hard to pass up at those prices.

[BanzaiCat]

It's moot really for me...I don't have the money, especially not after that order.

[mirth]

I don't really either, but it's so tempting...

[BanzaiCat]

Yeah it is. I'm behind on my son's tuition though...hell, he can get a GED right, even though it's his senior year?  >:D

Never owned any of the Tide of Iron games...I remember the first edition at one of the conventions I was at in the mid-2000s; it was one of those giant box games. This second edition looks much more compact and I really like the expansions I'm seeing.

I ended up punting on it due to the shipping and exchange rates.  I know a store here has the 2nd ed base game and one expansion.  They're having a Black Friday sale next week.  If it's still on the shelf when I get there after work, I'll pick it up.

VPG has a 10% off sale on it's own offering via Amazon.


Not a terribly big sale, but figured I'd mention it since some of us have Prime & don't pay extra for shipping.

Has anyone tried Tide of Iron?  I am thinking of picking up a copy but I've never tried it.  Any good?

Man, if only someone had published a review of the game on the front page of our site!

[Staggerwing]

Front Page?

[BanzaiCat]

Front Page?

Of this site?

.... if such a place existed.

And I lost all my cheese slices....

[Bison]

Oh for crying out loud.  Just go buy a bag of army men and some rubber bands.  It'll cost you $3...you are in Canada...so $6.  :D

[BanzaiCat]

Price of Army men: $3

Price of shipping Army men to Canadiastan: $64,565,342,745.08

Level of Barth's anger: priceless

[Barthheart]

Well I do have a US address for shipping stuff within the US... but someone would actually have to ship me something to know that.....  :-"
