Isiah Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Yes apparently for us Dark Angels there is a Dark Vengeance Expansion set @ $136 approx. No UK or Euro costs as yet. It is to include a Ravenwing Command Squad, 5 Deathwing Knights and a Dark Talon.Supposedly released this week !!From here: http://natfka.blogspot.co.uk/2014/11/dark-vengeance-expansion-kits-this-week.html Could all be lies of course ...

JeffTibbetts Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Looks like a solid discount! Normally $185 for all that, by my calculations. You basically get the Ravenwing for free!

Isiah Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 If the rumour is true a good deal then. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298823-new-dark-vengeance-expansion-pack/#findComment-3852255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother dean Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Not quite as good a deal as Storm Claw but is close... $50 savings vs +/- $90 for Stormclaw depending on character costs. So not completely implausible. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298823-new-dark-vengeance-expansion-pack/#findComment-3852274 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I thought GW was out of the discount business. I'd love to see a unique fig in those sets. I mean it's a repacking so it should have something special in it. Regardless I'll probably be buying BOTH kits. Ugh. (if they exist) But if that rumour is accurate I like the DA one better than the CS set.

Bryan Blaire Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Meh, sadly I have all that I need of those kits, and unless the Chaos ones are updated, I'll pass on 15 year old models. I already have new Raptors. Sadly, it's extremely unlikely that these will have any unique figs with them.

Prot Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 You know I did have a thought though... seriously, and it doesn't involve food or alcohol. What IF they touched up the crappy Darktalon rules? That would instantly make that box a HUGE seller. I LOVE those flyer kits, but I only painted up a Nephifail. I have always wanted to do up the Darktalon but as it stands it probably won't see any air time as I've proxied it in games and it's terribad in today's air game. Otherwise, I don't what to do with the bikes since my original DA army was pure Ravenwing. However the Termies will fit in nicely. The Chaos box I have to admit I may skip on. I have a million terminators... I make my own cultists, but could always use more. The raptors are great, flexible kits I could use. But the savings may be worth the duplications. Definitely getting at least 1 DA box. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298823-new-dark-vengeance-expansion-pack/#findComment-3852674 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Lucifer Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Im probably in for a box. I need a RW command squad, extra knights and 2 nephilim/dark talon are greater than the sum of the parts.

johnyocum Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Only question for me is, Dark Angels or Guardians of the Covenant for the DA box? I run actual DeathWing, am working on a true RavenWing, and have about 1500 points in my GotC.

Isiah Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 Looks like UK cost is £85, Europe €110, US $140. Contains 9 models, so 5 DW Knights, 1 flyer, 3 bikers.

shandwen Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Its looking like ill be in for one of these as well. Hopefully the flyers get better costed next book, but they are a great looking kit.

aura_enchanted Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 hey im down for this box, imma use the saving to buy a second rwbk squad so then i can have a max size command squad. i always thought the rwcs was the most versatile of the three command squads offering a healthy balance between cc power, ranged damage, and the best mobility and statlines the dark talon is something that would be nice to have but i wont cry over not being able to build and paint the thing all at once the dwk's ill convert to dwt's using spare bits, daddy needs himself some more boys in beige Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298823-new-dark-vengeance-expansion-pack/#findComment-3853465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 You know what would make me buy a few of these? A new rules sheet for the Darktalon. That would seal the deal for me. As it stands I love the flier models, but we've been through this 3.5 billion times.... as a result I buy this box for aesthetic reasons only.... and I'm a sucker for a deal. Not sure how much CDN yet. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298823-new-dark-vengeance-expansion-pack/#findComment-3853503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 [Keeanu Reeves] Whoaaah, I just had a wild thought about these 2 box sets. [/Keeanu Reeves] What if the 'surprise' book coming out was indeed the Fallen? You could simply buy these two kits, and kitbash them and you'd have a heck of a start on the force for a pretty paltry sum. If it turned out they used the Helchicken, you just modify the flyer accordingly. Otherwise you'd be pretty set right there with these 2 boxes.

What I want in these kits is dv datasheets with a pre-order bonus of a bonus datasheet (that is otherwise wd exclusive) for seraphicus.

Gillyfish Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Interesting rumour, I would be tempted as it would give me what I need to round out my army too (second flier, third set of DWK and Black Knights). I do wonder how accurate it might be though - it seems a rather isolated release, unless they are aiming for the Christmas market? It might finally persuade me to pick up 7th!

lhg033 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I may be tempted by this. twice. I don't actually need any of it and in fact have 3 boxes of each black knights and Deathwing on top of my many other unfinished/unstarted projects but... shiney! and I don't have a nephilim and could do with 2...... why GW, why do this when Christmas is coming and my kids expect to get presents for themselves? best darth vader impression: Noooooooo!

HsojVvad Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Damn, $165 Canadian. Get so excited when I see US prices then I realize, they are US price, not the price I will be paying. :( Still a deal is a good deal. Thing is, do I really need all this now? Great for people who are starting though, so great for them.

Wraith776 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 $170 in Australia. Thats a pretty good deal if independents sell it at a further discount.
