I only buy CH items that interest me and is not being produced elsewhere. The last CH item I purchased was Utah Beach and Rarities 3 (German captured ordnance.)
I think you'll find that there are maybe 20 "new" items in that period, made available in 100 different formats (and all of them bad).I stopped buying CH stuff around 4 years ago and saved myself in excess of $14,000 he has released over500 items in that time .
I only care if :Oddly, this page popped up in google when I was doing a search for something related to ASL, so here I am...5 years late.
Anyway, why do people care how other's spend their money? Go buy all the ASL stuff you want, as long as you get enjoyment from it. I find it a strange phenomenon.
And yes, I've bought some CH stuff, never at retail, either off Ebay or using a 30% off code.
You're prepared to complain about it, but not spend any time thinking about why it's even a thing? The general negative reaction to CH products is not "knee-jerk", it's based on decades of actual experience.the knee jerk anti reaction to CH which has been going on for years
I am not going to discuss whether all of CH's (recent) products are rubbish, because that's not the issue. Plus, since I have bought none in, at the very least, the last 15 years, I don't have any first-hand experience.Are you seriously suggesting that they are ALL rubbish? Statistically unlikely isn't it? But dogma deems them to be so.
You should not participate in an argument if you don't understand what words mean.No, it is knee jerk. Let me explain.
They seem to be cranking out counter sets at the moment. The numbers of products is still high but nothing I've seen recently has made me go "oh! I must have that!"Speaking of CH they have been pretty quiet for a while now. No huge influx of new releases.
I will not comment on this judgement.All I can say is buyer beware.
The bestbof CH! is very very good but their production rate is so high that you might get 20 scenarios of which 2 are great, 3 are decent, 10 are meh and the rest unplayable.So how is then the scenario quality in general from CH? I have (so far) played 47 scenarios published by CH. Most of them have been fun and well balanced, one or two have been dogs. The disadvantage is the lack of proofing so I am in contact with Ray from time to time. He always responds in a friendly way. The advantage is that with CH you get an enhanced experience of what ASL can offer. A lot of HASL, Korea (long before MMP), Middle East 1948, Algeria 1958, Ethiopia 1936, a bunch of dessert scenarios etc. But due to the dollar, the US Post ridiculous pricing and the pricing from CH itself I buy very few items from CH nowadays.
