Riddle of Steel

June Price hike

It does appear it is that time of the year again for Games Workshop to raise its prices. OK whatever, what I am confused about are two of the most recently releases. The Empire Steam Tank and Empire Greatswords. As of right now a lizardmen Stegadon is $40 US but the new Steamtank is $60. Secondly a box of Graveguard or Temple Guards are around $25 but the 10 man Empire Box is almost $50…..???
