Secrets Revealed 8: Pricing
In EiR, one of the most hotly debated and theory-crafted sections is that of pricing. As I'm sure you all know, we are going to have a period of unit-balance purely to get the pricing as balanced and fair as possible. That being said, here is a section of the pricing containing the British infantry:
