One shirt: $25.Shipping to Germany: $45.Crazy. Absolutely crazy. :-[
On the bright side of things, you'll have bragging rights as one of the few people in Germany who has one. :thumbsup:
I'd have to reread the section to see if it fits, but the Cave Lion from Era Digest Dark Age is 75 tons, 5/8 XL engine, and 4x MPLs. Also it'd need new owners. The Sea Foxes helped upgrade Nova Cat factories in exchange for some of the production run.
That reminds me. I have been meaning to point you towards the Minsk 2 for your urban renewal Star.
It's also nice to have a list of official early-Clan refits.
You know, I rather like the Molniya-class WarShip. I’d personally prefer some things be a little different, but overall, I rather like it.Ruger
I am really proud of the team on TRO:GC. A lot of effort was put in to make units that could conceivably be obsolete yet still be viable in the modern era.For example with the Omnifighters you can see a tech progression from the Issedone to the Avar as they go from Omni but inferior to regular ASF, to superior. Yet the survivors in 3150 are still viable. Well done guys.
My thing on the fighters were how many of them had single heat sinks.Ruger
But I bailed out. :(Shipping a t-shirt from Germany to worldwide (with DHL) would cost 9€. That's $10.60! Plus packaging and handling, let it be $15. He**, even $20 would be acceptable. But $45?CGL does everything to discourage non-US customers to buy their (non digital) goods. The business must be really good that they don't want these additional customers.
Alas, as has been said before, CGL have very little, if any, say over the shipping costs. It's a perpetual issue but the US-based distribution centre is the one that doesn't seem to care.
What are people's thoughts on the Minsk 2 (or the Slowerki, as I've taken to calling it)?
While this has been said several times, I cease to accept that CGL can do nothing about it. In this case CGL is the customer and should have leverage with the distribution center.
IIRC a short while ago Ray wrote somewhere here in the forums, that the DC doesn't offer/use the cheapest possible shipping method.Personally i'd rather wait some weeks more for *not* expedited shipping for reduced costs.
You're a customer too. How much leverage do you feel you have?Catalyst is not a large company, and I doubt any shipping concerns are quaking in their boots at the thought of losing Catalyst as a client.
Doing work at a shipping counter, all I can say internationally shipping rates can be weird for various stupid reasons. Shipping from Germany to the US via DHL is very different than shipping from US to Germany via UPS or FedEx (DHL still has a presence in the US but they lost allot of footing during the recession) Amazon built it's own shipping fleet just so they can have more control over their own shipping rates.
So Honor's Gauntlet was slated for a July release and it is now August 1st...
icons of war and rock of the republic were due in june. there's been a delay on the fiction end all summer
This is why I'd like them to go back to just Surprising us with new releases. ::)"Hey, this is available today! Feel free to buy it or not!"
