skeletoro Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 The new kit, yes. Pre-orders: yes with some retailers, but not until Saturday (I think?) through games workshop. I ordered it through a USA ebay seller who posts to NZ at a reasonable price. Worked out to maybe a 35% discount or so, even after including shipping in the cost (before shipping it was more like 50% off the NZ price. ROFL) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293384-space-wolves-ork-starter-box/page/6/#findComment-3740579 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere near a regular, but occasionally pop down ELG on a wednesday night, or sometimes head down games hub.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I also just preordered one of these sets off an ebay seller I use frequently. Got it for about 15 US dollars off listed price too!! If the rumors are correct and we see a new codex this month, it would make for the best birthday ever!!

skeletoro Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Man, I'm pretty hyped for a new codex. Here's hoping we see some leaked pics of new SW releases (white dwarf 25) within a week or so Looks like i'll be able to trade my orks from the box set for some more space wolf models (possibly more TDAWGs)... so I'm keen to see if we get any special HQ TDAWGs (command squad kinda thing) or a unit that is otherwise 'TDAWG-plus.' Also whether Krom enables a Loaning-type FOC or buff to wolf guard. I haven't build my TDAWGs yet but after the trade I might have about 16 plus 5 cataphractii to build... I'm thinking maybe Krom might favour the use of a Spartan...

Down at ELG most weeks drop me a message if you're heading down at somepoint games hub is good, open til 10 pretty much every night of the week, nice snacks, about 8ish decent size tables, and about 150+ boardgames of all shapes and sizes to play if you dont wanna play 40k etc. Anywhoo...back on topic... where are folk ordering from?

Baulder Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Local GW posted on FB: "So we have been hinting about something quite special the fast few days so here goes...as you all know the new White Dwarf is released tomorrow. Dominating the front cover this week is Krom Dragongaze, a brand new plastic Wolflord and the warrior destined to stop Grukk Face-Rippa and Red Waaagh! So what's this Stormclaw all about I hear you ask? Well it's a new boxed set containing both Orks and Space Wolves! I don't want to spoil the surprise too much but be here tonight at 7pm to advance order your copy of this Available While Stocks Last box or of course anytime this weekend." Looks like the chatter of limited release may be true.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I am pretty sure that has been confirmed for a day or two, Baulder. But after the rumor mill tossing around all kinds of different release dates, it's good to hear an official GW shop posting about preorders!! Side Question: When are the White Dwarfs released now?? Is it every Friday, or every Saturday??

Okay now wookieman, what can you tell us? Don't be stingy :) I'm particularly interested in Wyrmclaw, Krom's Relic Frost Axe.

wookieman Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 No rules for the characters in White Dwarf and I cant zoom in to check out the datasheets. Someone with a paper copy might be able to provide more info. fluff wise-Krom is left to lead the rear-guard because of his foul temper and Logan leads the main assault, however Krom decides to go on a rescue mission when he hears Grukk is in the vicinity.

Someone with a paper copy might be able to provide more info. No problem. I knew none of us could see the snapshot pic from a few days ago, but was hoping you could with your official copy. Maybe someone with 20/15 eyesight will be able to help us out in a day or so with an actual paper copy. Anything new in there that you can tell us about that we don't already know?

wookieman Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 model wise krom can be converted, his left shoulder part is separate and his right hand attaches at the wrist so you can change weapons, his head can be swapped with the heads from the Thunderwolf cavalry box. Three scenarios are played in the white dwarf using figures from the box, Fierce Eyes finest have a special ability to concentrate fire on a single target is mentioned.

wookieman Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Fierce Eyes Finest rule - when one unit in the formation has shot at or charged an enemy, successive units inn the formation who choose the same target re roll failed attempts.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I just talked with the guy at my 'local' GW and this is basically what he told me about this box: I will be available for purchase next Saturday (July 19th) It is not a small release, but will not be reissued. Ever. He said not to expect it to sell out the first day, or within the first month. When asked about a possible upcoming wolf release, he only said "Maybe." with a menacing tone to his voice. I poked him further and he either wasn't letting any info go, or he genuinely did not know any more. He didn't know about any of the set's fine details; such as your inquiry, Val. It does indeed hold a paperback edition of the 7th edition rule set. I'm really excited about this release, so much that I have begun to assemble some power armored Wolf Guard!! I know, RIGHT??!!
