GWR Small Prairies out

Re: GWR Small Prairies out
If I could add my two pence worth, this is a brilliant pack, and I would rather buy in bulk (like Pete has described above) than buying lots of seperate addons, for instance, a pack at £11.99 with a specific colour of loco and a few carridges, I'd rather just buy all liverys and wagons (if any included) for one price. The pack is really worth it and I have recommended it, and I'd like to see Victory Works stay selling this way in the future, definatley the best way to sell DLC in my opinion!
Re: GWR Small Prairies out
I'd just like to agree that the locos produced by Pete/ Karma99/ Victory Works are always a high standard and clearly a labour of love.
The £17.99 price for this package is good value and Victory Works deserve to be repaid for the effort that has gone into it. Hopefully the Steam/DTG sale (and changes to VAT regulations which DTG have mentioned elsewhere) won't discourage him/them from creating similar DLC in future.
I have been waiting for this release and have already bought / downloaded it but would happily have paid the full price, and would be happy to do so for any future products.
Thanks, Pete, for this and the 14xx Auto package.

Re: GWR Small Prairies out
Yes, I agree with most (all?) the previous posters. I'd happily pay full price for this collection, but thank you, anyway, for the discount. This is typical Victory quality; please keep them coming. How about the large prairie next? Happy memories in working on these 45XX in days gone by.

Re: GWR Small Prairies out
Oh, if not the large prairie, how about the Grange or the Saint (curved frame), perhaps the finest 2-cyl locos of their respective generations.

Or not much glamour but much work: The GWR Mogul. But first I enjoy the wounderful Small Prairie in the next weeks.

Re: GWR Small Prairies out
Wow just wow read the manual people the amount of user customisation on the wagons alone is utter bonkers. I can't wait till the weekend so I can have a play around with them.

Re: GWR Small Prairies out
Hi
Payday for me is the 20th Dec,already over spent on Christmas presents and food,so will have to miss the 33% discount,but looking at these and some of the DTG stuff, I know what I would prefer to pay £18.00 for these, they are well worth the money.
They will be the first item to buy on payday,they would cost far more if you just bought 1 loco and some coaches like the KA@£11.99,and then pay a further £ 3.99 for each reskin in market place.

Re: GWR Small Prairies out
Just got the small prairies. This collection (this pack is so much more than just a single engine/livery…) is worth every penny and would be a bargain even at full price! Victory Works has now given us the 56xx, 14xx/48xx and the small prairie set, so what next from Swindon…?
With the forthcoming 28xx from SSS we have almost all the more numerous GWR classes that survived in some numbers until the last years of steam. In fact, I think that the only ‘big’ classes still missing are the 43xx, the 2-8-0T/2-8-2T and ‘Grange’ classes. Like other posters the GWR Mogul now tops my wishlist, but for now I just want to do some trips to Falmouth!
