Dalmyth Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 For anyone in the US that has done any of the other 40k or AoS ones how much does it average per month usually?

It was $66.52 when I did Imperium. Mind you this is without the premium or the quarterly gift issues. I did a calc based off my receipt from the pre-order. Including S&H plus tax a basic sub should be ~$74 per month.

I can't see a reason not to go for the premium, but also I think I'm less interested overall in this one compared to the last.

Still not bad overall.

macradam_hue Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I've just subscribed (UK) from issue 19. Seems like a good value run up until issue 40 or so, especially if I can manage to find duplicates of key issues (Wraithlord, Chaos Terminators, Wraithguard) in the wild Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384128-hachette-partworks-combat-patrol-summary-thread/page/4/#findComment-6092763 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxom Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 It looks like there is no way to get individual issues for the US release? Subscribing just for the first batch seems like a good way to get the two characters.

In the past there wasn't a way to get individual issues in the US unless you managed to stumble upon early issues that were used as bait in stores. They also wouldn't let you skip any part, you had to be subbed from day 1 to the end, and if you ended it early, no way to re-subscribe later on. jaxom 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384128-hachette-partworks-combat-patrol-summary-thread/page/4/#findComment-6093112 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's kinda weird that the subscription service is just so much worse in the US despite it being the same product. There's plenty of history of subscription services in the US for this exact type of thing (Older Frater might remember Columbia House or the various "Subscribe for this CD!" services), but GW doesn't seem to feel the need to expand it's availability that much.

Think the reason is that in the case of the US they have a decent foothold here and the magazines are made to get people into the hobby. It's why the first dozen or so issues in the UK and EU are at newstands while here in the states we're lucky to get the first two or three in the GW stores. It's a different customer base these days. That or Hachette just doesn't have the infrastructure on this side of the pond to support us yanks as well as they do on the other side of the Atlantic DemonGSides 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384128-hachette-partworks-combat-patrol-summary-thread/page/4/#findComment-6093260 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like starter sets don't exist in both places. Hachette just isn't that kind of brand over here.

Focslain Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Just glad my sister is also doing this, so we have been planning a few exchanges to get what we need more of. the one I really wanted off the bat was the leapers, that way I'll have enough to make the vanguard CP after this. Next major exchange is with the GSC, which I should get to looking at those alternate bikers soonish.

Dalmyth Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 (edited) Has anyone else had issues with trying to pay for the subscription? It doesn't seem to like Paypal all that much. Edit: Turns out it went through, so that was a bit odd.

TheArtilleryman Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 (edited) Just picked up a copy of the Wraithlord issue in my local Morrisons for £5 and a £5 More card voucher Edited March 5 by TheArtilleryman ZeroWolf, Rusted Boltgun, Zoatibix and 3 others 5 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384128-hachette-partworks-combat-patrol-summary-thread/page/4/#findComment-6098474 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen them in my (not so) local Morrisons or any other supermarket near me actually. A few had the original Conquest magazine run and the equivalent fantasy run but I havent seen any since then. Despite not collecting Eldar since the start collecting boxes were £40.... I picked up two Wraithlords from FP in London - lots on the shelves when I was in yesterday for those who care. These will likely just be a distraction project for me to paint something a bit different however I am tempted to pick up some jetbikes too and ideally some wraithguard but I have a feeling both these sets will be harder to get Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384128-hachette-partworks-combat-patrol-summary-thread/page/4/#findComment-6098555 Share on other sites More sharing options...

A staff member told me there's a guy who waits for it to go on the shelf on a Wednesday. He only ever leaves paint behind. I'll be picking up later copies via Newsstand again, fingers crossed.

There are several Morrisons stores near me and they all only get one copy per week so you have to be very quick to get the good ones. I managed to get the Parasite that way and now the Wraithlord, but other than that all the good ones have been gone before I got a chance. The termagants and paint issues tend to sit there for most of the week. Strangely, in one shop today they still had the second half of the guardians on the shelf from two weeks ago.

Especially sad as you know nobody is ever going to field 5 of that infernus sergeant model and it’s blatantly for resale. I’d maybe forgive someone if they took 4 lots of jetbikes or something cos you could do something with that in an army. I’d be sporting enough to just take one though. Just gonna say for clarification I only got one copy and it was for me, not to resell lol Edited March 6 by TheArtilleryman firestorm40k and LameBeard 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384128-hachette-partworks-combat-patrol-summary-thread/page/4/#findComment-6098618 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Still nothing from Warbay. I pre-ordered both the Farseer and Wraithlord issues from them and they have let me down both times. I won't be bothering with them again (I need to check if they charged my card). Any suggestions for somewhere more reliable?
