Chikout Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 7 minutes ago, Jagged Red Lines said: Was dominion a limited run that they massively over produced? Or was it an ongoing product that they continued to make throughout the edition? Perhaps they could be moving to the latter model for Ruination, particularly as it seems to also fulfill a dual role as a starter box for spearhead. It was the former. Their strategy is to make a big launch box for the experienced players, and then switch to three smaller boxes to entice new players. The largest box starter box contains scenery. They’ve done this for 40k 8-10th editions. With AoS third edition was the first time they sold a box with plastic scenery. I wonder if the smart move would be to scrap the larger starter box and make the launch box an ongoing product with a much smaller initial print run, then intrudce the two smaller boxes later on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that the Warbringer and Warmaster are also on here as they weren't in the Sunday article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the same and I usually do it with stuff like the CoS spearhead where I bought the box and sold half of it. In Spain most of the comments I saw are that people treat you as a scalper anyway. I'm Spanish and I agree with you that it is scalping. 😆 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the one I looked at the most but just simply because I don't get what's going on on the lower side. i had an idea like that for FEC but thought it was unplayable.

Snarff Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 1 hour ago, Grungnisson said: Well, that's the thing, isn't it? It could be just about any reason. And to be honest, I don't even care about 'why'. All I'm asking for is 'when'. The same thing keeps happening with Warcry (Vulkyn Flameseekers, Monster-Killaz) and it's really getting to a point that friends of mine are tired of waiting and interest is waning. Pyre and Flood was revealed 2 months ago, yet there's still not even a pre-order announcement in sight. Guess that's what happens when GWs resources are spread too thin over too many games.

I can't say the interest is waning, in my case. Only played a game last Friday, having a full-dwarf CoS Warband, and had a blast. It's not as much about the game stagnating, as far as I'm concerned. But, just as I outlined it there, if I'm going to drop £90 in one go, I do need to budget ahead for it. And at the end of the day, what have they got to lose?

I actually find it interesting that the 4th ed hype cycle is already starting even though the Dawnbringers hype cycle is not yet finished. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem in my case is that people got very excited by the reveals (Nighthaunt/Lumineth players and people who just really liked the models), were ready to try Warcry, and then more than 2 months of nothing happened. No pre-order, no pre-order announcement even, no communication at all. Same thing happened before with the KB and for me with the FS warband. If the warband that really catches your eye takes months upon months to even get an announcement that it will be available for pre-order, it's difficult to keep the initial excitement up with week after week of disappointments. Especially with the Pyregheists being in DB5 and being used in promotional pictures, but still no announcements 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Dawnbringers should have been started earlier? All I know is I want 4th edition now! It really feels like that was the plan. The Cities hype cycle was also unusually long. It feels like the refresh was supposed to drop before the start of the campaign, not right in the middle of it. So I would definitely suspect things to still be behind schedule. Crazy to think about, given that BR: Kragnos was ALSO behind. We have been dealing with delays the whole of 3rd edition at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must say that currently the Idoneth and the Fyreslayers are the only factions of the order that I like so I look forward to them receiving a second wave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grabbed some of the marines for less than half of what they cost when they came out as solo boxes. Biologis was £8, Lt with combi was £6 and it was £18 for a squad of Sternguard.
