Thanks for the heads-up about Warbay. I have an order with them but I am glad I got some from News Stand just in case as it looks like I wouldn't be getting them otherwise.

 

I hope to see all these Wraithhosts on the table soon. :confused:

Did anyone order issue 39 from buymagsdirect.co.im and had it delivered or dispatched email ?

 

or has anyone actually used them before ?

 

thanks

 

I've used them in the past with no issues but I can't speak to issue 39 specifically as I didn't order from them.

I had ordered issue 40 from Buy Mags Direct but have not had any updates on delivery etc - are they quite slow on posting?

 

This seemed to be the only place you could order what I imagine is a very in demand issue due to the discount offered!

not sure, Not received any updates on issue 39 yet, hoping they ship it this week.

The release dates shown by Buy Mags Direct seem to be one week after the date they're available in shops/from Hachette, so yeah normally you get them 7-10 days "late" (similar for Newstand - I only got my 39 from them last Friday, despite it having been released to shops the week before that)

 

That said, as far as I can tell Combat Patrol is completely gone from Buy Mags Direct for new orders so who knows what's going on there.

My latest subscription bundle arrived today so I can confirm that:

40 = 5 chaos terminators

41 = 1 ork warboss in mega-armour

42 = coelia greenshade and calgar blue

43 = 10 ork Boyz

44 = administratum grey, astrogranite and a texture spreader 

No info on further character series miniatures, like the Varro Tigurius one?

I just got an email from Warbay informing me that my order was shipping. Fingers crossed! 

Just in case any of my fellow Smurf Fans haven't got him, the special Tigurius issue has been listed on the Hachette Website for £14.99: https://hachettepartworks.com/en-en/warhammer-40000-combat-patrol/chief-librarian-tigurius/ saving £13.01 over retail, or £7.41 compared to buying from an FLGS with a 20% discount.

I picked up the latest magazine and it had the leaflet in for the Nachmund terrain bundle for £80. Nothing to suggest it was subscriber only however the QR code didnt work and a quick google only comes up with the same link as the start of this thread from March  (subscriber only, £75)
Terrain Special

Interesting the leaflet is a different price so I wonder if we can expect to see this come up soon for 'general' release.

Do we know if any other characters will be coming out like this?

Combat Patrol is 3 months behind when Hachette *usually* releases for Oz, so I emailed them if the even plan to release it here. 

Their response?

At this point in time it is just available in the UK, Unfortunately we do not have plans currently to release this collection in any other counties, but please keep your eyes peeled on our online store for any future updates.

 

:cry:

I hadnt thought about it before but....

 

I have Prophecy of the Wolf squirreled away in the loft/attic which has 3x mega armoured orks in there 'untouched'...


I am wondered whether to get another issue 41 as a body to use with the Mek parts

 

Has anyone tried similar using meganobz parts with this to know if the scale works ok?

When they split a three sprue kit across 2 issues do they normally put two in the first issue? 

I'm wondering whether to buy 3 of issue 47 to give me 6 koptas?

Or is that too big a risk?

The issue may be the bases may only be in the issue with one sprue. They did similar with the gaunts and terminator issues. 

Yeah they do tend to front load the two sprues in the first issue, but then put the bases for all the models in the second as @lhg033 says. Obviously you can always buy loose bases from eBay if you're just looking for raw number of models but once you've done that the saving of buying 3x 2-model issues will be reduced versus just buying 2x2-model and 2x1-model.

 

Another thing to consider is that the specific Deffkopta with the big bomb (as opposed to the rockets) might be the one on its own in issue 48, so if you bought 3x issue 47 you potentially wouldn't get that loadout. Not sure if that presents a problem rules-wise this edition.

My Warbay order has just arrived safe and sound. :thumbsup:

The terrain kit is available on the hachette site
Terrain Pack
£80, free delivery (on orders over £30) for the Sector Fronteris set

 

Out of interest there are still some imperium issues showing as available too 

 

looks like i got in on Issue 40 at Buymagsdirect in time - finally arrived today

 

Also managed to accidentally order 2 copies of the Ork Warboss Issue 41 from Forbidden planet - damn the forward order planning!

Buymagsdirect got back to me saying they couldn’t get stock of 39 so they’re cancelling my order :(

I was wondering what had happened to their Combat Patrol listing. Between them and Warbay it seems like allocations got messed up. Hopefully it'll get resolved and they start listing it again.

If anyone ordered this did you receive a confirmation email? I haven't received anything but my money has been taken. I swore I wouldn't use hachette directly after the last cluster-shambles I had with dealing with them. I hope it's not going to be a repeat.
