PraetorDragoon Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 I didn't expect that spearhead box to show up already, but I don't mind it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no, no book IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolf Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Maybe rules are covered in the Core book? didn't the rules are modules article that came as part of first rules teases talk about it in that way? ie spearhead just using the core module Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Fire & Jade book is a nice one stop with all spearhead warscrolls and the core rules. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ejecutor Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Do we think that they are not releasing it because of all the supply problems? Or as it comes from China, it is purely a GW decision? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrimDork Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Am I right in thinking that the bulk of the fire and jade book is just all the spearhead box stats bound into book format? If so, to me it seems a bit redundant anyway. Even tho I've ordered Skaventide, I will use the downloads for the stats. I'll probably print & laminate them to make my own warscroll cards for playing rather than flicking back and forth in a book. They've probably left the book out of the gaming pack as any future spearhead gaming packs will not come with a book either, as there would be no need as it would just be the same book again with a different name. I'd imagine future gaming packs will match the contents of this one; board, scenery, battle tactic decks, twist decks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it would be cool if Spearhead leads to more and more varied terrain, even if it is just one sprue. Edited July 1 by Ejecutor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of these seem like a complete waste of time! We know SC & Skaven will be getting a tome soon, at which point these cards will be invalidated. Again, I'll be cracking out the laminator!

This happened also in 40k. Those with more content were more expensive. Also, the problem is not only those factions receiving a tome soon, like SCE or Skavens, but that is very likely that most of the cards will be wrong. This happened with the 40k to the point that GW accepted returns/ refunds and they removed them from sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just scanning eBay, all the spearhead content PLUS the fire and jade book is going for £40ish, plus or minus a few quid here and there.

I suppose that's true, although most ppl probably prefer to just Download and print the free pdf for their army, unless you have a lot of the boxes a single book doesn't seem too much value...

Grungnisson Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Not directly AoS related, but Man Reviews New Talisman Edition, and let's be honest, for so many of us this has been the gateway drug to Warhammer and the hobby in general. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the order of the faction symbols suggest a release schedule? 🤔 Stormcast and Skaven are the first ones respectively, which could be a clue. 🤷🏻♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
