I wonder what the price is? If it is $125 dollars for only one faction, then I'm probably going to take my ball and go home

Who do you write $125 dollars? That's like saying one hundred and twenty five dollars-dollars. You only need the word or the dollar sign, not both. Also, expect one box. One big ol' box.

Again does anyone know what the prices are going to be?

Are we looking at +100 US dollars for single faction starter box?

I sure hope not.

Also, how does one apply to be a member of the Ultramodrines? Are harsh trials involved, ones that would test my faith as a wargamer and resolve as a geek?

We don't know. There haven't been reliable rumors of two starter boxes and the price will probably be the same as AoBR. This is my educated guess.

There is little chance a "starter box" will not have enough things in it to "start" playing. Like two factions.

and the where briefed. On two things. Yeah you guessed. 25.08. will be preorder date for the starter box. There will be a limited version with an Interrogator Chaplain. 08.09. will be the release date of CSM Codex.


Look! Pile-on rumors. I don't think I'll be counting pile-ons this time.

Cant wait till set is released so everyone who "knows" whats in the box will shut up and just enjoy it. Since so many people are obviously making crap up, i will do the same.. I hear all the models are going to be a combination of finecast and paper mache!

For those who are eager to find out the truth, just wait. Another week or two and we will see it in white dwarf and actual pictures posted online. Dont put to much stock in these forums as they are usually half wrong and full of bitter liars, whos inside source is another rumor monger. Gw will put the info out when it is time (though im not cool with delayed release info either).

pretre, that's the first thing I thought as well.

However, this 'source' is saying that CSM will actually be released Sept 8th, instead of starting pre-orders on that date.

Quite a change, if true (yes, I want it a week early lol)

I would TOTALLY go for the paper mache minis... especially for Dark Eldar! Then the models would truly represent the vehicles!

Kaimarion over at warseer says stores have started receiving their starter set boxes. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Edit: If true, as he says we should get pics soon

Or not, if stores want to keep their trade accounts.

It may just be so stores can get them ready for games and is not for public showing. I am also guessing if they want to keep their jobs, they must not say anything

The realism is eye-scorching.

Normaly, my local store does a pre-order pool at least 2 weeks before the pre-release date, and this time... nada. The employee who's in charge told me that we'd have to wait for White Dwarf to show it, because he "still doesn't know its coming out in September."

My guess is $115, that's a popular price for GW boxes these days.
