Title: Battlefleet Gothic T-Shirt
Post by: Gothmog Lord of Balrogs 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.

Post by: Gothmog Lord of Balrogs on May 30, 2013, 01:13:04 AM: 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'd rather get more BfG minis than a BfG shirt.

Post by: Gothmog Lord of Balrogs on May 30, 2013, 02:08:16 AM: Why not sell it for $20. They would probably sell ALOT more and still make money.

Post by: Jimmy Zimms on May 31, 2013, 02:43:12 PM: You can make it fine for personal use. No copyright issues there.

Post by: Neferhet on May 31, 2013, 04:28:16 PM: 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....

Post by: Zhukov on June 01, 2013, 03:18:21 PM: 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.

Post by: unseelied on June 02, 2013, 03:33:41 PM: yeah, I bought one too. I've always wanted a BFG shirt. I've only seen one other, a german version that said something like bottle flotte that was released when the game was originally. I am mad at GW for dropping Specialist games but I also am an addict so I keep giving them my money. Its troublesome.

Post by: Gothmog Lord of Balrogs on June 03, 2013, 09:31:08 PM: Can you still buy it? The GW page said June 1st, but the link still works to it. I may still cave and get it it you can.
