No savings on if you bought the SC (£50) Skull Crushers (£60) and Blood Warriors (£37.50) individually, but you do get a free art print if that's your thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least this one is compatible with itself, which wasn't always the case (some flavour of space marines had upgrade kits in it that wouldn't fit the models it came with). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we're getting Khorne/Slaanesh Soup 😂 I refer sir to the original Realm of Chaos Books for 3rd edition fantasy. Vol 1 : Slaves to Darkness which was a Khorne and Slaanesh book, Vol 2 : Lost and the Damned which was a Tzeentch and Nurgle book. Loads of amazing content and lore explaining the hatred of these two factions with each other and how they and their champions saw the world and their place in it. Amazeballs reading Highlights: Khorne got 40k technology as chaos gifts and chaos dwarfs in their list. All of the awesome sir, all of the awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Arthur Hotep Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I struggle to understand who these bundles are supposed to be for. You need to be pretty plugged in to the AoS sphere to even hear about them, but if you are, you are probably knowledgable enough to know that they are not good deals. Bundles without a discount are a worse than buying models individually, not better. The art print you get with them is not worth committing to such a big miniature purchase unless you were already going to buy all the minis individually, anyway. And that seems like a really unlikely situation most of the time, in my opinion. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a pretty bad deal. the last gloomspite gitz bundle, just had a picture for free. add the cost of every other unit in the bundle, and you would have paid the same amount of money, as if you would just purchase everything seperate. Now I’m not sure if this is the case wirh the newest bundles, haven’t had the chance yet to calculate the cost of the separate boxes.

I maths'd the Khorne one with UK prices and the individual costs add up to the same as the bundle. You just get the free picture. Edit: we'll have to see if the bundle prices go up with the general price rises in a few days time. Edited March 1, 2022 by EntMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJetski Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Okay but all we care about is seeing if/how they changed High Tide and Forgotten Nightmares 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucentia Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I was gonna say, suspiciously avoiding the round 3 bonus there I see! Making rituals more limited in timing but more impactful in effect is a good change though, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beliman Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) So, it seems that Tides of Death have 2 abilities for each turn. One of them is passive and the other needs an Isharan unit on the table. I don't understand why WC talks about "choosing a ritual", it seems that there is no choise. Maybe I'm missing something? Edit: yep, I'm a ******. Only one ritual in the first turn. Thx @Kadetonand @Flippy Edited March 1, 2022 by Beliman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, you choose which ritual you're going to do at the start of the first turn - so basically which of your turns you'll get the Ritual ability. On the other turns, you just get the standard effect. If you've got a Tidecaster, you get to pick two Ritual turns. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm missing something? There is a choice - at the start of the first battle round you apparently get to choose one ritual (or two, if you have a Tidecaster). So you can effectively choose one / two rounds in which the Tides of Death get power-up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsumy Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 yes again other change to be hyped for the tome!! i was hoping for a propper ritual table like every army prayers.... and they got even worse, wo change 5 chances of doing a ritual for only 1 rutual in whole game, and the effect is minimun, it should be a gamechanging effect like orc waghs since it is only once per game. and yes, of course they only showed the 2 effects who noone cares,since im sure cover in turn1 and atack first will dissapear. i lost hope on tome when saw the index and didnt see anything new, no new pics, no new enclaves, no prayer or ritual page etc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nighthaunt Noob Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Seems like the coin of the month is probably a good indicator of how far behind GW is right now. March coin is Necromunda Ash Wastes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jator Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) This is from Bob, the guy at War of Sigmar when asked why does he think the Chaos Tome will be Khorne instead of glorious Skaven: Quote Good remark, from what i know, skavens are on the line with a few rejuvenated kits (not a lot but a few). Khorne should only have 2 new characters (valkia and a rider). I was told recently that 2022 will have very low number of kits for AOS ( no more than 10) . Considering they teased Valkia wings this week it probably mean that the chaos secret book is Khorne. But maybe skaven will be this summer and Khorne in fall but i would be surprised Summer or not, we may get Clan Eshin updated this year!

AngryPanda Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) I’ll be pretty excited if we get a Khorne release, my two main armies are both Khorne Bloodbound (Khorne mortals), and Hedonites of Slaanesh (also exclusively Mortal, aside from summoning). I’ve been meaning to shift my focus from painting/basing to more scenery building. If there’s a Khorne book coming along, would give me plenty of time this summer to build a a display table to have the God’s two rival mortal armies be pitted against one another.

yukishiro1 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) I'm shocked they kept the Tides (and even kept the exact same effects for T2 and T4), though I am 99% sure they will have changed High Tide. Ironically it's not even such a big deal any more in a meta where so many armies rely on ranged damage and games are decided so quickly that T3 now feels like the old T4, i.e. the late game, where bonuses are less important - now you pretty much have to reverse the tides to get it to be game-changing. But I'm still sure they'll change it, one thing GW is super reliable about is nerfing the hell out of whatever was a problem 1.5 years ago.
