Krom's Great Company - be careful

Recommended Posts

Hi all, 

 

Just a quick one.  I contacted GWUK customer services yesterday to ask about transfers.  As I've got Stormclaw plus a few other units, I realised I'll need more iconography than that provided in the box.

 

GW "HAVE NO PLANS TO RELEASE MORE TRANSFERS AS STORMCLAW WAS A LIMITED EDITION"

 

I know there are 10 PA and 5 Termie transfers for Krom's Great Company on the Forgeworld Transfer sheet, but that could get very expensive very quickly!

 

Luckily, I've managed to get my grubby paws on a few additional sheets.  But, with ebay prices going stupidly high, I thought I'd better warn you all!

 

Cheers, 

 

Moogy

Elazar the glorified - I know - I mentioned that in the OP ;-)

 

tvih - historically, I've been the same but I want to make these 'kosher'

 

Leif Bearclaw - ok, my bad.  There are 20.  Plus the 5 Terminator ones, so 25 in total.  25 transfers for £12 (plus the, what, 12% postage?).  Sorry if I'm not jumping over with joy at the prospect of being forced to buy something else, all because GW lack foresight.  If they're releasing a box set, it really should have occured to someone over there that 'you know, maybe someone will want to do it like we have?'.  Think of all the noobs that will buy the box and stick with what GW say.  

 

Think of it this way.  I'm a noob.  I buy Stormclaw.  I play some games and I love the Space Wolves.  I decide they'll be my chapter!  I then see the new flyer.  WOW!  I get one.  Then I play more games.  Then the codex comes out.  I get that too.  I then look at all my army builds and decide to expand.  So I buy 2 Wolf Packs and some Thunderwolf Cavalry to give me a circa 1500 point army.  I get these new boxes home and build them up.  I paint them.  I then look at the transfer sheet.  What do I think then?

Fair point, I forget about FW postage, side effect of living in Nottingham I'm afraid.

Krom is up to 30+ on ebay. Bought one before it got too high because even though I have storm claw I want the bits for a ragnar conversion as he is looking more and more unlikely to get a mmodl, and he is my primary great company.

 

Damn it, stop making me want to buy a second box :P

Good luck in getting your hands on one now - fleabay has them BIN for £150!!!

My first one was used for Krom and the second (bought two sets) I used on a Erik Morkai conversion. If you can get'em, do. Comes in handy. By the way if you are interested in dressing up your chapter, head on over to Benthor 's Banners at eBay. Got all the banners he currently has for Wolves and love them. For all the non Vlka Fenryka, he also does several other chapters as well.
