Yeah, I don't get THAT much corner-cutting. That IS corner-cutting, NOT corner-rounding. Corner-rounding is an art form while that's just mutilation.
Then again, it's their game, so they can do to it as they will.

Wow, that's fugly. I don't think an Oregon Laminations clipper did that as they tend to round the corners more and those are straight across.

Apparently those really bad cuts were done with the C4 Cutter

I'm gonna stick with my trusty OL.
The C4 Cutter did include this information in the ad for Barthheart:
Why Clip Counters?
Wargames don't come ready-to-play. So, consider the analogy of a plastic model: You remove the parts from the sprue (punch counters from the frame) and then trim any flashing off the parts (clip the ragged corners off the counters) before you begin assembly (setting up the game). To which somebody once said that wargames aren't models. Of course they are; they model historical situations. So, who would be crazy enough to build a model without trimming the flashing?

That is unnecessarily extreme clipping of the worst kind.

Well, if you're playing a game of stop signs, that's your clipper I think.
