KingBrodd Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 £120 is the price of a Mega Gargant, you're telling me for the same price of a Mega I can get that entire box set?! On the other hand that's another Mega... 4 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clan's Cynic Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 At least the one-per customer will hopefully deter as many scalpers, so GW at least seem consciously aware it's at risk of selling out. Way I'm looking at it is... I'd like one, but it's not a limited edition product, so I'll be able to get one eventually and I've enough of a backlog to paint through that it improves my skills so there's less chance of me messing up the Cursed City models. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I want it now! Anyway, thanks for the advice everyone. I'll see if I can snag a copy on Saturday, but if I can't I know it's not the end of the world. The way I look at it, if I manage to preorder from GW directly, I'll get my copy early, and if not I'll take the 10% third party discount. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I think I'm going to have to hold off on it now too. As long as its not a limited run box, I'd be happy to wait a little longer until the full army is out and just splurge out then.

MarkK Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Still have a decent amount left to finish in my backlog, so probably will be waiting to buy later in the year. Looks pretty good though, nicer mix of miniatures than Blackstone fortress. Price is a little more than what I was hoping for, but not much I can do about that!

robinlvalentine Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Yeah I think I'm going to wait too. Really love this set but it'd just be another huge project I don't have time for right now! Does seem like it should stick around for a while, though I'm a bit worried about the expansions considering how fast those came and went with BSF - I don't want to feel like I have to snap those up or miss out forever... Price-wise I've pretty much been predicting £120 from the start. It seems more than fair to me, and I'm glad GW stuck to that rather than massively jumping up in price like they have with a few other boxed games recently. For the amount you get in the box it's good value IMO. Cheaper than a unit of Lumineth Bladelords at least! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreddships Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 The books alone, even if we say they're £10 each - so 3 of those means we're clocking in £90 for the 50 models inside Cursed City without including the game pieces - or just shy of £1.80 a model, and considering we know GW would be more than happy to sell the twelve character models alone for £20 a piece, I'd say that's a bargain. The £120/£125 price, imo, is definitely worth it with Cursed City like it was with Indomitus. Alchemist Workshop seemed to confirm we're looking at 30 initially to independent retailers, so it might sell out on pre-order quickly if anyone wants it immediately.

Black_Templar_Lad Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I'm proper guttered haha, it's literally the backlog stopping me from getting the set. That and I really want to game again with Gravelords but guess that can't happen anytime soon anyway. Gravelords are definitely going to be my first major purchase though, im so exciiiitteeeeed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SorryLizard Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 The box is an easy pass for me. The only time I'd play it is when at the wargame club and if I'm there then I'd rather be playing a full blown wargame. Which means it's down to the miniatures and...I don't want most of them. I'll pick up some proper fancy Vampires once the Gravelords are available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwyn chan 'r Gwyll Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Has anyone seen a CAD price floated? I know just running the conversion rate isn't always accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the same price as Indomitus in the UK and EU so probably $239. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jefferson Skarsnik Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Have we only officially seen 2/8 objective markers to this point? Keycritter and helpful skeleton I had started to assume they were multiples of the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandlemad Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Objective marker or some other kind of mission-relevant critter seems likely based on the cards. Probably some sort of little dark magic entity or one of the necromancer's cobbled-together creations. With the big head, lantern jaw and pot belly, he has sort of a Mike Mignola feel, like the little devils flitting around in Hellboy in Hell. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for the first few months, I think you're relegated to eBay. It'd be super surprising for GW to have them available outside the core box. Also, I think they're still just gonna release all the heroes in one box separately down the line like (I think?) they did with Blackstone Fortress. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Badruk Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 (edited) Does anyone think we might eventually see a new Arkhan model more in line with the bonereapers aesthetic after the events of Teclis?

Vasshpit Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 @Captain Badruk This seems to be a popular theory. •I can't see Gdubs getting too much more $$ from that existing Mortarch kit. •Its in a start collecting that's soon to be removed, I'd wager. •Mortarchs are pretty important characters so going forward it would seem better for those three to get their own sculpts. •In fitting with the OBR lore, I could see him being fused with his mount Razarak into the same bone construct body. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn that would be amazing! really excited for a potential second wave of the bonereapers, my favorite aesthetic and lore in the whole setting by a good ways 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
