[QUOTE="Ranger REG, post: 792541, member: 533"] Well, I can basically handle a product that is $40 or less (sales tax not included). Unless it is a computer software (game or application, but haven't really bought a lot of those), I won't spend more than the aforementioned amount. There is only one time I did but I took advantage of the low preorder price deal and it was [i]T20: The Traveller's Handbook[/i] (retail price $44.95). Ordered direct from the publisher for about $40 including shipping + handling. So, I will have to do some smart shopping, without a plastic. May have to wait until there is a sale. BTW, the $32 [i]MnM[/i] despite the low page count is chock full of game information, complete enough to play the game. So it is worth the $32 price tag. Loved it. The combat is fast-paced as far as wargames go. But what they excel in that, they have yet to find the right RPG ruleset. I could be wrong. I don't mind being wrong about this one. Like I said, GOO is known for producing Anima/Manga-based games. It doesn't mean I don't like it, I do. I may want to use [i]d20 Mecha[/i] to revive my [i]Robotech[/i] games (which BTW, no one has claim license to that famous IP, that or [i]Macross[/i]). It is just one group of the mecha genre spectrum. (Like [i]Star Trek[/i] and [i]Star Wars[/i] occupying the spectrum of the science fiction genre, despite both having thematic differences.) [/QUOTE]
