Battlefleet Gothic T-Shirt
« on: May 30, 2013, 12:41:50 AM »
Just thought I'd make sure everyone knows, there is a T-Shirt, presented by White Dwarf, available thru Black Library, with the Imperial Navy Battleship Divine Right.
$40 USD. Only available untill June 1st. What makes me angry is why are they making a T-Shirt endorsing a game they just killed.

IDK, I'm more pissed at the price personally. $40 for a silk screened tee? Criminal

Yeah. I really want it, but I am having alot of trouble justifying the cost, especially after buying so much BFG and several books lately.

I can get three Woot! shirts for $39....

/I'd rather get more BfG minis than a BfG shirt.

Why not sell it for $20. They would probably sell ALOT more and still make money.

Maybe we should insist they give us the T-Shirts with our orders that are taking FOREVER and/or not being filled.

You can make it fine for personal use. No copyright issues there.

ah, really? I thought that even usng GW copyrighted "designs" (the ship silhouette) could be infringement.
But that would be only for selling the shirt, i guess....

Hey, money talks. They really might have seen a massive spike in orders when word got around they cancelled the line, so they made a t-shirt. Granted, only a decade too late...

I bought one. If you want this game saved, the power of currency is the only way to do it.
