Line 1: Line 1:
In tabletop games [[overcosted]] is a term used to refer to assets that are too difficult to deploy for the value they provide. Intentionally contrasted with "overpriced", which generally refers to the item's actual monetary price (though the two frequently overlap).

==Examples of Overcosted Things==
*[[Carnifex]]es in 5th ed.
*Any [[Magic]] card released in the [[Legends]] block that didn't utterly break the game..
*[[Abaddon|Every]] [[Mephiston|single]] [[Marneus Calgar|super]]-[[Kaldor Draigo|special]]-[[Commissar Yarrick|costs]]-[[Helbrecht|more]]-[[Logan Grimnar|than]]-[[Azrael|an-SM]]-[[Imotekh the Stormlord|land]]-[[Asdrubael Vect|raider]] [[Swarmlord|unit in]] [[Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka|Warhammer]] [[Ahriman|40,000]].
*Fully kitted out [[Veteran Squad|Vanguard Veterans]]. Giving a five man squad power weapons and jump packs brings them up to just below Terminator price,
*Dark Angel's [[Nephilim Jetfighter]], exemplifies this concept. Cost more than it has a right to, with weak options.
* Khador's Man-O-Wars. As if being the worst heavy infantry in all of [[WARMACHINE|WarmaHordes]] wasn't bad enough, to top it off they're also overpointed.
