hobgoblinclub Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 1 hour ago, wayniac said: Still seems pretty lackluster to me. Classic GW move, which is saddening as it appears they still haven't learned that if you only support a fraction of your armies with constant releases, those will of course be the top sellers, which results in you supporting them even more, rinse and repeat. On the flip side, if you support the ones that don't get any love with updated rules and boxes, maybe people will think you're supporting them and actually buy them. I sometimes think GW is too scared to take actual risks. To be fair to GW the factions mentioned are the most recent releases. Wait until next Christmas before you pass judgment. It could well be that we have 4 different factions from 2017 (although we'll probably have another stormcast chamber). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I'm okay with there not being any tempting boxes to tear my wallet asunder at this most financially-trying time of the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarbear Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Ironjawz definitely stands out to me as the most attractive set, pairs really well with the Start Collecting. Are we sure that's 10 Brutes, not 10 Ardboyz? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohojoe Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Ohhh that ironjawz set. Why do the good deals always happen when I am skint! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysandestolpe Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 does this mean that we will see a new giant model (or reworked at least) for the release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a repackaging of current kits with a funky battalion for Christmas. But with how cool GW has been this year, I'm happy to eat those words!

Spiky Norman Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 It's incredible how fast some people get used to getting deals from GW with huge savings - Only months back a deal like this would have been absolutely awesome :-) Personally I think it's cool with bigger army deals with all the new armies (except the poor Fyreslayers). I am considering picking one up myself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Alec Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Not saying this isn't a set of great deals. They clearly are. I was just hoping for some of the lesser-loved factions to get some joy. Seems like a Start Collecting box + one of these equals a really solid force though. Variety, troops and great savings. It's pretty easy to start a new force these days. (I just want a Fyreslayer bundle so I can start that army...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I have to agree, the process of getting an army has been streamlined a great deal and I have to give GW credit for that. Its so much more inviting when you can see an example army or a grouped set of models as a new player, rather than wading straight into army composition. I am really loving the evolution of GW as a company, embracing the community behind AoS and those who are completely green to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will not be getting it until I have finished painting all my ogors sometime around 2059 The Stormcast one looks like a very, very nice saving too> 10 liberators (not the monopose), venator/azyros, Celestant Prime, 2 Dracothian Guard, 5 Paladins that I can see. That's a must have for anyone even just looking for dracoths and the prime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dez Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 100 pounds sterling. Ironjawz one looks really good...but I only need 1 box of Brutes and a Megaboss. I could sell off the rest...or get Blood Bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobgoblinclub Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 These boxes are fantastic value. I'm really tempted by the Sylvaneth one and two Start Collecting boxes. That's a 2000 point army for £150! Shame one of my main opponents is getting them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
