After Stormclaw and Dark Vengeance, what should the next two army boxed set be? I read somewhere that these are going to happen every few months. I am including a poll, but it won't have Chaos Space Marines/Chaos Cultists, Dark Angels, Space Wolves, or Orks as choices. Let me know if I missed an option in the poll.

EDIT: The poll obviously allows you to check every option, but as the boxed set only contains two armies (or does it ), try to only select two different options.

Give me sanctuary 101 damn it!

Well, I'd opt for SoB and Nids. Epic battle.

Necrons vs Blood Angels as they are probably the last two codices.
And it's just a coincidence I play both xD

Necrons vs Sisters in a rematch of Sanctuary 101 get my vote.

Necrons and Tyranids

Black Templars versus Chaos because I need te models for both of my armies...

I went for Guard/Tau.
>It should give us a decent range of models.
>Some Tank on Tank action would be different.
I had thought Sisters, but None of the other choices seemed right to me for them.

They can't fight each other, they're buddies. They team up to defeat evil, remember? I'm surprised they aren't battle brothers...

I like it! Never happen...

Adeptus Mechanicus vs Dark Eldar

Eldar vs. Slaneesh Daemons would be cool, I'd think.

Sisters vs new GK

I hope theyll make them permanent, the LE sells too fast for anyone not die-hard to get.

I'm missing an option to vote for Space Marines vs Space Marines.

That would be the ultimate Space Marine army builder.

Since we got some vehicles in the last two boxed sets, I could definitely see some vehicles making it into the boxed set. Ideally, the Imperial Guard would have some sort of tank. The Eldar could have a few jetbikes or a viper jetbike. Dark Eldar could have Reavers or something. Tau could have a Crisis Battlesuit or three or maybe a Piranha. Necrons could have a barge or whatnot. Tyranids...something big? I could see the generic Space Marines coming with somethijg like a TFC or a dreadnought.

IG vs. SoB!

I voted for 3 Options, because its the main armies that my family collects. IG, Elder,and Tyranids. Any combination of those 3 armies would be great by me.

I won't be surprised if future box sets will contain some SM/AM-alliance or perhaps even some strange unbound list...

Sisters vs Necrons

Warhammer 40,000: Sanctuary 101.

It's even got a good name for a boxed set. Implies much, has a hint of grimness to it (even if you don't know anything about either army) and the fluff to it is a good way to show off both armies.

I think they would make a killing if they did Praetorian Guard vs Orks in a Zulu movie style set up like they did in an old white dwarf.

A good excuse for an interesting scenario, could have terrain, limited edition models and be cool.

I wouldnt buy any box sets but that would be one very cool one that may tempt me.

My vote goes to Imperial Guard/Nids, nothing better than a line of infantry defending against an endless horde.

Not sure why you can pick more than one option.

All you need to know is what faction is going to fight against the Space Marines.

What books need an update at this point? Blood Angels vs Necrons? Or Dark Eldar?

Space Marines, as the most popular army, should be the logical choice. Also, define 'box set', if you mean the edition-ly box set you won't want to take Stormclaw into account because it was Limited Edition. Technically any GW unit (bar characters) is a box set. It comes in a box, it is a set.

Yes, Blood Angels, Dark Eldar en Necrons.
With the big amount of Necron-players I expect to see them against Blood Angels, to boost the sale of this box ánd the sales of their Codices.

Demons and Farsight/Tau would be awesome!

Most likely BA vs DE, as these are the next two releases.

Because I don't like the fact that the Space Marines are a foregone conclusion. And I ONLY play Space Marines. My ideal would be Eldar vs. Tau or Necrons. But I have pretty much resigned myself to it being Blood Angels versus Necrons. Didn't Stormclaw come out between Orks and Space Wolves? And Dark Vengeance is just a rerelease? If that is the case, the logical choice is the next box coming out after Necrons but before Blood Angels, or after Blood Angels but before Dark Eldar. Just theorizing, honestly, I don't know squat.

I second it

I'd love to see sanc 101, but that would require plastic sisters.

And we all know whats the story THERE.
