Noting the easily available Living Rule Book, I realized that I didn't have to troll ebay to get into the game. Besides, I think that for the going rate ($100+) I could probably come up with something good myself, right? I checked my garage and I found a 2x3' static grass mat. So I could hit the hardware store and get a blue foam board and some round head brads for less than $10. I also have foam core and cereal boxes available for dugouts, scoreboards and whatnot. So, I'll soon have a pitch for $10.
Now I just have to get a couple of teams. I'm a fan of Skaven, Humans, Skeletons and Dwarves. I have seen some teams for $100, and they are beautiful... and that is a bit out of my price range. I guess my question is this:
Who makes decently sculpted teams for a reasonable price? Also, is there someone distributing them in the USA so that I don't have to pay for overseas shipping?
Maybe someday I'll get the fancy teams, but for now since I am starting out I'd like to keep the costs down. Any advice would be appreciated.
See you on the pitch!
