Thank you.  That’s a big help.  I’m in a Gloomhaven campaign right now (on hold due to The Rona) and I’d have to say its a very different game and not really comparable.  But perhaps that’s just me.

Its $400 which is currently £311, (Assuming the price is American dollars.  The site doesn’t say and the cost is the same when shipping from Australia who also use dollars) but that’s before shipping etc so that could take the price up, once its all back in stock.  No idea how much that’ll cost and if Customs will get involved and demand their share.

I’ve a metric I use to help me justify spending too much money on toy soldiers and board games.  If I go to the cinema I’d be willing to spend about £10 on about 2 hours of entertainment (Its gone up since I started doing this).  So if I get more than 1 hours enjoyment out of something for every £5 it costs then its earned its cost.  That’d be 80 hours for KD:M.  If we assume 2 hours a game thats 40 fights.  It sounds like that’d be playing through the campaign 1-2 times, which sounds normal for those who enjoy it, and it definitely sounds like you’ve got double value from your copy and still love it.

I’m in the process of buying a house and once I’m done I hope to have space to leave a game set up indefinitely and still have another table for other games and work, so time to play a campaign hopefully won’t be an issue for me.  Money might be.  I don’t know for sure how much I’m going to have left after the purchase, but I should have more than enough for this, but I should probably spend it on DIY, but we all need to enjoy life and not just only invest in the future.  There’s always more future, and very little present.  I really wish the solicitors would pull their fingers out and do something.

Sounds like if I want to buy it on Black Friday I need to make that decision before looking at the price and click buy before getting out of bed that day.

 

I’m interested in other opinions too please.
