Globulus the Glutton Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Hey all, I'm fairly sure most of you will of seen this already but for those of you haven't Warhammer Community have made a post previewing some of their Christmas bundles. Here's a web link to the original article. This year it looks like its going to be five 40K Battleforces and five AoS Battleforces which is pretty damn cool! And one of the first boxes to be previewed is a Death Guard one... Which being a new player myself I'm very interested in. Got some great units in there! Does anyone have an inkling as to the price point for these boxes?

Commander Dawnstar Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 If last year is anything to go by, I believe it'll clock in at $170/£100. You're essentially saving a third on the RRP.

Panzer Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 2016 I've paid 130€ for a T'au Battleforce box and got models worth ~220€. 2017 it was about the same iirc. The exact amount you'd be saving of course varies between each box and the T'au box was one of the better ones but each of them are a great deal!

Decimus Felix Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I've got the Dark Imperium half, and I'm building up with Conquest, so I fully plan on building up my Death Guard with this. Mainly to honour my cat, Nurgle, who died this week.

Prot Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Yea the DG one is definitely on my must have list. The last time I bought something like this it was the Deathwatch Watchblade Force boxset. I recall it was a significant deal.

Globulus the Glutton Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 Might buy myself a couple of these bad boys if they RRP £100 as with a decent 15-20% discount that's £80!

happyslugger Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 If they are £80 I will grab one. I would just keep the PBC and terminators and sell the rest on. Would need to get £20 for the rest on eBay to make it worthwhile though Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350860-christmas-preview-death-guard-battleforce/#findComment-5181464 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 It's a really nice set of models for the price. Lovely core to a force of you buy a few or have DI.

Cleon Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I've got about a 1200-1500 points of Death Guard from various places - this looks like exactly the customisable core dudes I need to actually make it work.

CMDR_Welles Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I would totally get this if I wasnt poor, unemployed, and disabled... Was denied Disability and Social Security for the 4th year again, so I wont be having much of a Christmas again this year. Last years was a welcome change with the unexpected christmas gifts. Dont think that will happen this year though.

Conine Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Going to get this either way because I can use just about all the models in this and the surgeon was something I was going to collect at some point anyway. As a thought though now that the other boxes have been released and each included a HQ slot character, any chance that the Plague Surgeon moves to the HQ slot in CA? They could just be trying to get rid of stock or didn't want to make a new sprue for one of the Dark Imperium HQs so it might mean nothing. The only non-generic HQ release solo is Typhus, and they might not have wanted to add him in the box since he is a named character. Just a thought. If they did move his slot I could see myself taking him more as its easier to fit in an HQ to my usual detachments than an elite, and he's cheaper than a PA Chaos Lord in current points.

CMDR_Welles Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Cmdr are you in the UK? Nope, USA. Sorry, just now seeing your query. Not been online much lately as I've been dealing with my medications... New/changed doses tend to do strange things lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350860-christmas-preview-death-guard-battleforce/#findComment-5186127 Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyslugger Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 No worries cmdr. Unfortunately I know nothing about the American system so can't help you with the claims etc on that side of the pond.

Unfortunately I know nothing about the American system so can't help you with the claims etc on that side of the pond. Thanks, and yeah, its a right mess here... It took my sister 9 years to finally get hers, and she is worse off physically than I am. I'm applying under Mental Health reasons, which is the hardest to be approved for. I can at least appeal this time. They sent me for a physical, not for mental review, so I can appeal on that. It's just a long frustrating process.

Reyner Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 If they are £80 I will grab one. I would just keep the PBC and terminators and sell the rest on. Would need to get £20 for the rest on eBay to make it worthwhile though I'd be up for that if you get one.

Would need to get £20 for the rest on eBay to make it worthwhile though They will most likely be £100 again. Which isn't bad because it has models worth £150 in it still. Not as good a deal as some of the other boxes but still great.

Not as good a deal as some of the other boxes but still great. I would keep the PBC and B.Lords (have one of each already) and then just sell the rest on ebay. You can grab the PBC and B.Lords for around £60 from independents, so would selling the PMs, Surgeon and Drone raise the difference? It would be tight and might mean I just buy the two units I need instead. Will have to see when they are released. But off to the newsagents later to pick up my 2 copies of conquest issue 10. 2 MBH for the price of 1 almost. Happy days.
