Which is why it makes sense to have a pack of standing command to go with your standing troops, and a pack of marching command to go with your marching troops...
Regarding the price issue - if sold in packs command figures are always more expensive anyhow...
As RTL writes, the Perrys spoil us, Command are the same price as ORs and they do figures to match their poses.
Giles, its even more fundamental than variant command packs. WHY OH WHY don't manufacturers finish the bloody range off? How many times do you have to make do with other bodged bits and pieces to finish off an army?
Sure I understand that launching a new period or army is a big thing, risky too given I suspect that the majority of manufacturers don't do any market research to see whether anyone would buy them (aside from a handful of vocal nerdy types who pledge themselves to buy the French Ancilliary Troops of the 6 Hour War of 1822).
I know a lot of you hate them, but OG have got it right, they TEND to finish ranges and you can buy their command packs in packs of 20 figures, a nice range of poses with only some duplicate figures.
Oh, dear... oh, I mean, seriously....
Call that a rant?!
'It's officially ( what was the word...?) SILLY!'?
You don't hold anything back, do you?
What's happened to us? We used to be fucking disGRACEful! Now we're sitting wearing checked slippers and Man-at-C&A Actionslacks with easi-fit waistbands, calling people 'silly' while our mugs of ovaltine cool down.
ENOUGH, I tell you!
We are no mere poltroons, to be trifled with at the whim of the global miniature-producing mega-corporations!
ATTENTION BICORNE:
Giles wants runny commanders - Giles GETS runny commanders.
Or we'll grease up the diseased lab-monkeys and stuff 'em through your letterbox while you sleep!
I'm with Norman on this one. For too long manufacturers have seen as as greying, portly geezers incapable of doing more than whining.
Unfortunately, they're correct in this estimation.
However, never too late!
Rally at Hyde's Corner tomorrow at 11 00. Bring your walking frames & a flask of Horlicks.

yes that's correct Donald, ET has the worst case of fulminating testicular hyperhydrogonadalepidydematohaemorroidosis that I have ever seen, and that along with the fact that his eyes are too far apart, his left leg is shorther than his right arm and that there is very little between his ears renders him unfit for the planned demonstrations
And, evidently, ET's a serial killer as well.
Excused duty (said with a smile).

Err a typo I think, he's actually quite harmless - the secret files were meant to read "cereal killer" on account of the no of packs of Special K he gets through a week (special k for special needs you see :) )
You haven't seen me opening the boxes with an axe . (said with a manic glint in eye ....)
