Kramig Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I read 160€, it is too much for me I will wait the separate rule book for catacombs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracovski Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 (edited) Hmm Spikeybits reports it will be 210 American dollar, so that would be about 160 pound or 180 euro..... Quite a bit more expensive than I was hoping for, so guess I'll skip it. Edited October 20, 2020 by Dracovski 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosa Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I will definitely and happily skip this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayul Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I'll skip this as well. I hope GW will relaease a Catacombs-only set in the future. I really liked Kill Team Arena and Warcry already has additional gameboards for different settings. Wouldn't this expansion be much cooler if the included gameboards weren't the usual size but smaller tiles so you could build a modular dungeon? With pitfalls and traps and cursed tombs... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably it won't look like a dungeoncrawler. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played silver tower and look forward to the next one. but that’s because you play with a couple of friends against a system. Whereas Warcry could be 1vs1 but dungeon crawler style.

RedRowan Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Was very much looking forward to this but if the price rumours are true I think I’ll be giving this a miss unfortunately. Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that's an effective enough divide to feel fresh for both groups. Hopefully the next Quest brings back & adds more solo options/system A.I as now the AoS RPG has the dungeon master focus covered which is what Shadows over Hammerhal heavily leaned into.

PiotrW Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I'm not giving up! Hopefully, the price won't be very outrageous back here and I'll be able to get enough money! At worst, I'll split the box with someone interested in getting the Scions... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Klatz Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Noice. The Shadow Well and Ember King Halls sound like the warbands starting places. Seed of Agony sounds like a good place for Sylvaneth to get involved with the narrative too. Surprised only one DreadHold in a sub-realm teeming with them but maybe that's because it's the only one that extends that deep down to the subterranean levels? Two other notes from Facebook. This won't be a limited release and the Set-up cards are in the catacombs tome. "FYI, Setup cards are apparently in the Catacombs book - I saw this question asked and answered by GW team in Facebook. So while not separate, it sounds like they do have them." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaukler Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I really like the map. Is it the first one that shows the underground of a realm? I think it shows us how huge those realms are and how many lost and unimaginable places are scattered across the realms. Really want to read more about those palces and see more maps like this. Do you think the lower edge is the other side of the realm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiotrW Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Hey guys, the box up for pre-order. And the price is 125 GBP, if you're interested I told ya so! Let's go and buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuy... (throws money at GW) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I wish I could but between Warcaster and Reaper Bones KS (reaper ending its pledge manager) and the new DoK and Slaanesh boxed set in November I just can't get Catacombs. I think I'll be ending up waiting for either split kits for the DoK on ebay or GW putting them on individual sale. Then again FB comments suggest that GW is making Catacombs a longer term box so if it sticks around long enough I might get in on it.

Groomy Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Sadly I'm in the same boat. Durgin's KS is running this month and I've been eyeing the new LOTR book both of which make me feel warm and fuzzy inside so I'll just wait for your guys overwhelmingly positive reviews and be happy for ya'll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my salt will need to wash a way for a few more days i'm afraid 😂 But after that i'm there with you converting and painting stuff up before I probably finally succumb and buy it anyway.... probably around the time the next one is announced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

someone2040 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I'm going to be passing on this for now. I always play Warcry at a friends house currently. Which as someone who has the original set, means that basically all my terrain is still in box (although I am looking to build and paint it sometime). Even if I didn't, what does it actually offer someone who already has the original set? Basically just dungeon terrain and 2 warbands and some rules which shouldn't realistically add up anywhere near to $350 AUD. It's a shame, if this is supposed to be the current way to get into the game (which, there's just literally no other good way to get into it), it's been far overpriced. I'd have snagged it (regardless of having unbuilt original terrain!) if it was $100AUD cheaper, but it just leaves a bad taste knowing that there's less value in the set and yet it costs more than the original set. I'm going to be waiting for set splits or the warbands to come out separately so I can grab the Scions of the Flame (I like the Shadowstalkers also, but they're one of those warbands that scares me to start painting them). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabbi Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Me too. As curious as I can be in regards of the new rules, the box is too expensive to me. Especially considering the terrain included: half of the content is stuff I already own (sure, the more the merrier, but new stuff would be preferable) the other half is made of doors (not the greatest and useful only in Catacombs games) or scatter. Adding the fact that one of the many aspects I love in Warcry is that it's played in three dimensions (and you loose the vertical aspect in Catacombs), I really cannot justify the price. With the same money (or slightly less) I can get two warbands and one terrain set. Which is preferable, to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith01 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I bought it. Did the math on how much it'll probably cost to buy the half I don't already own and it'll cost about the same as the boxed set. Looking forward to building the Shadowstalkers! and checking out the Catacomb rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramer Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I'm still trying to convince myself on this set and warcry in general. So i'm playing a game on sunday with some of my own armies. As I understand Stormcast are a bit much I decided on DoK vs KO. Seems like a nice match up. But I'd be happy to change things around if people advice something else for a test game or two. Lists KO: Gunnery Sergeant, Skywarden with pike, Thunderer with flamethrower, Thunderer with cannon, Arkanaut with Gatling Gun, Arkanaut with pike, 3 arkanauts. DoK: SoS champ, 2x SoS, 2 Khinerai, 5 witches with two knifes. Again just aiming for a fun game. So if this is super skewed, I'd love to hear.
