      The prices are based on the costs of making the models.. the more a model is used and bought, the lower the relative costs of each of the molds.
      If a model is bought by a relative few, ganes workshop still has to make the molds which is really expansive - therefore the models that are more unique are more expansive and the bigger vehicles are less so in comparison because they are bought a few times by each army.

    "watch" isn't in reference to the time-telling device, but to the organization of the death watch itself. they're usually just called watch captains, but for some reason GW put deathwatch in front of it for the model's name
    >Warp Spider
    craftworld eldar units have names based on their culture's mythology and history. the name "warp spider" is taken from tiny little spiders that live in their craftworld and eat negative psychic energy, protecting the souls within from daemons.
    >Clamavus
    like most genestealer cult HQ choices, it is derived from latin. in this case, the verb "clamo/clamare/clamavi/clamatus", which means to proclaim or declare. this is fitting, considering that they're the cult's equivalent of evangelists
    >Keeper of Secrets
    its name comes from the fact that it knows your deepest desires, and how to tempt you with them to do its bidding (which is important, given that it's a big old daemon)

    "I dont want everyone to think im an alcoholic, it just helps me get thru the videos..." haha my mother used to say something similar " im not an alcoholic, it just helps me deal with you turds" all kidding aside she was fantastic. To be fair the pricing is outragoues, but the recent enthusiasm for the hobby from different companies may hopefully force gw to start pricing competitively. And the they are off on paint names. Course there is lore tied to the naming of both paints and minis i suppose. Oh and to any gw folks watching someone stole my cell and wrote that comment about pricing. No need to send the suits for a round of "reconfiguration"(aka lobotomy) and we definately should be paying $50 for a single standard space marine, your too good to us :).
