Because this is a federation . 50 states . Not just two . You think two states would look out for the other 48 ? No , they ' d say FUCK THOSE REDNECK ASSHOLES just like they ' re saying right now . The purpose of the federal government is not to optimize the outcome for two states , even if those two states have a large population . Its to manage all 50 states . Which is why someone has to have the support of the majority of those states to get elected . Weird system . I know what we need ! A CalNyExit ! Then they would be able to manage their own circumstances completely . I am confident that this totally novel idea would work out the best for everyone involved . <| sep |> A lot of people here are suggesting selling off the miniatures , which is certainly a viable option . However , I think there ' s a lot to be said about having actual miniatures on the board , and if you want to go that route , I have a few tipsFirst , if you don ' t want to paint , then don ' t . The models still look fantastic unpainted . Personally speaking , I ' m never going to paint mine . Second , you don ' t have to build everything at once . This game is played as a campaign that will likely take weeks or even months to get through depending on your pace . That gives you plenty of time to build between sessions . For the first session , build the 4 starting survivors , the lion , and the antelope , which are all fairly simple models . Before your next session , all you ' ll need to build is the butcher . After that , its just the Kingsman , then just the Phoenix you won ' t want to fight him as soon as he ' s available , then the Hand , then finally the Watcher . Breaking it up this way gives you a lot of time to build at your own pace . Finally , you can build custom survivors with the armor and weapons you have , but if you ' d rather keep building to a minimum , there ' s nothing wrong with sticking to the 4 starting survivors for your player characters . Takes away a lot of the work and you can always go back and build them at your leisure . I think I speak for a lot of people here when I say this game is utterly fantastic and worth the $ 250 price point . I lucked into getting it at $ 100 in the original Kickstarter , but looking back , I ' d still pay $ 250 for it . No other game in my collection even comes close to the amount of playtime I ' ve gotten out of Kingdom Death . It is a hell of an experience . And if you can justify the purchase , now is the time to get it before it potentially goes back to a higher price point .
