I'm trying to avoid ebay, only things I sell on there these days are big things that are collection only, so was looking at working out a fair price for a few facebook trade groups I've used in the past (can't stand gougers) but I like your idea of offering it on here as well.

There are already a few people on here looking for A Krom model, if you check the dakka swap shop for a start.

1 guy is offering up a Wraithknight in exchange for Krom!

Similar to another poster , I'm interested in this set as it seems pretty self contained in giving two forces , I already have templates and dice etc so not being an actual starter is not an issue as I hate the lack of customisation in DV and the sides. Managed to order for just under £61 so pretty good, at that price I can make my money back if you get bored by selling separate units etc

I have read that some people have ordered this, or tried to, from somewhere else other than GW, and their order got cancelled (I guess due to unavailability). Where do you guys typically get your stuff from? I thought GW would be a safe bet since its from the source, and its free shipping.

BTW I called GW yesterday to ask a couple of questions about this set and the DV re-release, and he dodged every question unless it was an item right in front of him or mentioned in White Dwarf. He said if you saw it on the internet its just a rumor, and I said fine, but it looks like I am looking at next weeks White Dwarf and its showing this and that, but he wouldnt have anything to do with it. What the heck. Just tell me what you know. They must have copies in their warehouse by now.

Actually it's GW staff policy, if it is not official news that is officially released then you do not discuss it or legitimise it, you have to act as if you do not know. Stupid, but company policy as opposed to staff choice. Talking about early WD is a big no no.

Apologies, had to go train. Sold everything bar the Kanz, waiting on payment for those then they are gone too.

The campaign book is very thin, bit of story covering part 2 of the red waaggh, 3 missions limited to whats in the box, the rules for the models are just whats in the box with things like named sargents.

Wolves seem same points cost as the current codex. Note that points cost is for a fixed build, not a per model + upgrades in the campaign book, armoury only covers things allocated to units in the book.

Wolves get:
Krom
The Fierce Eye's Wolf Guard
Hengist Grey Hunters
Egil's Blood Claws
The Fierce Eye's Finest Formation, basicly everything, gives furious charge if Krom still alive and re rolls to hit to whole formation if a single unit can hit something.

Orks get:
Grukk
Skrak's Nobz
Rustgob's Runts
Kanx
Grukks Ripping Krew formation, everything again, if Grukk on table, re roll failed morale, pinning and coward tests and everything can deep strike for turn one with out a reserve roll.

Tiny preview for part 3, Sanctus Reach Hour of the Wolf.

See the war for alaric prime spiral out of control. The space Wolves of Strike Force Stormclaw arrive, turning crushing defeat to bloody victory. Yet the Ors are far from beaten, and as the war reaches new heights of brutality, the fate of the whole planet hangs in the balance.

And another one, managed to miss:
Few skalds remember the sage of the sacrifice on Sacred Mountain. As the Red Waagh descends on the sanctus reach sector a last stand by seven grey hunters stalls the greenskins advance. An uneven contest, it is nonetheless the very stuff of legends.

thats it.

Any new rules for Frost Weapons? I think that one of the bigger questions. Thanks.

I assume then Krom's Finest Bros formation can't take transports? If so, that pretty much makes it crap.

Only the models in the set get rules so no transports mentioned. Frost blades are the same, only swords are on the models.

Why?

Krom's Finest Bros Formation: Krom, 5 GH, 5 BC, 5 WGT

CAD with RP, 2 GH in Rhinos, 2 LF with Rhinos, Heavy LRC.

GH and BC steal the Rhinos, WGT steal the LRC.

Maaaaagic.

pfft, people play current SW without all Drop Pods? Bleh!

My play group is Necron, Tau and Eldar. I might as well not unpack.

I was really hoping Frost Blades were changed, guess we have to wait for the Codex.

EDIT: Wait, can you start in another units DT in 7e? Could still do DPs stolen from Long Fangs.

Post by: Looky Likey


Krom & Grukk get their own data slates.

The first two missions are tailored to prevent one side having an unfair advantage despite this being a lopsided set:

Mission 1 the Wolves can only lose if their Grey Hunters, their only unit, get wiped out, anything else is a Wolves victory.
Mission 2 the Wolves can only win if they are at least 4 VP head of the Orks

Mission 3 is just everything without a way to balance the lack of Orks that I can see, although Orks can DS the entire formation anywhere on turn 1, I'm not convinced that does anything other than make the Wolves job easier.

I assume the forum link is ok...


CatSmasher, on 16 Jul 2014 - 12:54 PM, said:


Like in the new ork codex all units come as dataslates, so it should be no problem using him as HQ. Maybe you can even "build" your own Krom with the current SW codex, but I don't have it to make sure. He costs the same as a Ironclad Dread his stats are 6/5/4/4/3/5/4/10, 3+. He is quipped with a Boltpistol,Frag and Krak grenads and the belt of russ (4++). also he has a wyrmtalon, his +2,AP2 mastercrafted axe. USR: ATSKNF,counterattack,furious charge,acute senses, stubborn. His warlord trait is (translated) "Saga of the born warrior": He has to make challenges and accept them whenever possible but can reroll all to hit rolls if he fights in a challenge.


CatSmasher, on 16 Jul 2014 - 12:58 PM, said:

The rules for Krom are covered in the other post, so I'll give you those for Grukk: 5pts cheaper than Krom, 5/2/5/5/3/4/4/9,4+. He has a (excuse me if I don't properly translate the ork weapons, I don't know all their english names) combigun with bazooka, a squig that lets him reroll 1 to hit die in close combat, a bosspole and stikkbombz along with his special Gitripper, a x2,AP2, rending energy claw. USR are green horde, ere we go, furious charge, feel no pain and can call a Waagh. His warlor trait is "roaring tyran" which lets him and all friendly ork units in 12" reroll failed morale or pinning tests.

Judging by the language issues, this seems to be a cut and paste reply from some other source, so its not as reliable as the guy actually having seen it

Right I have the box set sat in front of me.

The rules for Krom are correct.

What I am worried about though is that the grey hunters don't have BP, BG and CCW as standard! By Russ I hope this isn't the case when the codex comes out!

So grukk has a power claw, which is AP2, which also has rending? Does it strike at init? Confused as to why an AP2 weapon has rending.

BC 110

Egil with BP/PF

I know what you mean about Uber grit, I still hope we haven't lost it. Head strong wasn't really a problem because you could always get around it.





Worth bearing in mind this could indeed just be for this scenario/ campaign.

Doesn't Rending give a bonus to Armour Penetration if you roll a 6? So that might be its use.

1. Frost Weapons have gone down by at least 10 points, since they remain unchanged, and

2. That Grey Hunters can buy CCWs for 1 point each to regain Ultragrit, should the owning player choose to.


So that's something.

To get the extra pen you have to roll a 6. If you roll a 6 with a STR 10 you're at 16 pen already. So not sure. Maybe he can rend without using the powerclaw if he wants to strike at initiative, as in it's his own rule and not the claws?

The mini is indeed awesome, although he is like the other standalone plastic HQs in that he is cut to make it difficult to kitbash anything else onto him such as a different arm, head, etc, hence why I sold my second one. Grokk isn't as good, but he is better than the Black Reach Warboss he is based on.

Yup Krom,his torso is a barrel with one built in leg and a ton of bling rather than concave for the separate legs and head, his arms fit in small pieces with notches on and his one leg is pre bent so it'll only look right on the rock or similar. He isn't impossible to convert but he'll need far more green stuff than he should. Weapon swaps easy, head ok with some snipping, changing his pose would be hard.

If that pattern is repeated it could bust the dreams of a few ebay scalpers

The nearest five GWs to me(one is in my city, the other across my state, and the remainder are out of state) are all reporting similar allocations.

My local GW stated they will have 24 in stock on Saturday. Limit one to customer, or if you are a regular customer, you may have up to 3. The GW employee is stopping scalpers and ebayers. Good looking out from GW.

Right up until a "regular customer" buys three and then ebays two.

There's looking out and then there's being reasonable. I guess they could have a lie detector at the counter...

Sorry but what reseller is going to buy direct from GW when you can get a discount online and several copies would generally push you into the free shipping offers most places have ? Only a fool pays the sticker price on GW product surely?

Unless its a fool who doesn't want their local GW shop to close. I suppose that is not an issue in Nottingham though!

I expect people willing to buy something purely for extracting cash out of their (presumably) fellow hobbyists that are also concerned with supporting their local FLGS are a rare breed indeed!

OTOH, just how much these have eBay value? Other than the HQ's (which aren't THAT unique), all the minis are standard sprues so they don't have the "OOP" factor once the box itself sells out. Ok I guess someone might get excited about the campaign book.

Yeah, it's entirely reasonable to expect a dedicated gamer to buy 3 for themselves. Limiting it to 1 would be overzealous.

$130 Retail
$104 After 20% discount
Ebay the Book $20-30
Ebay the Ork $20-30
Ebay the SW Guy $20-30
You could sell the rest of the miniatures starting at 50% off and still profit

On the Wargame trading group on Facebook several people already apparently got the set and already sold it on, one guy's total for the lot came to £130 which is a little crazy.

Not a reseller myself but I don't buy from GW stores as there is no reason to even here in Nottingham, they're glorified child daycare centers any time there is an event on and lifeless corporate places when not. When/if there is a FLGS worth supporting then I would buy from them , but until then I'll cheerfully buy online for 20% off and free posting.

Given GW's situation on the high street if I were one of their managers then I'd nit be restricting sales one bit, nor do I think I'd have to, it's more likely a half assed attempt at generating hype for sales.......

I can't stand gougers so when I sold the spare bits from my two sets I tried to price them fairly, I still made £120 selling two rule books, one campaign book, 1 Krom, 1 Grukk, 2 lots of 3 Kans. Means I paid a net of £15 for everything else so I was very happy, about 25p a model.

The Nobs I upgraded to flashgitz using snazzguns from a bits seller, the grots became ammo runts and oilers. The Space Wolves I'm leaving unbuilt until the new codex hits but I have a great starting point when you add in the battleforce I picked up.

I do so loathe folks who buy up multiple copies of stuff and flog it on eBay for more than it's worth. The Void Shield generator being a fine example...

I can understand selling stuff off and trying to make a little profit, IF, for example you only played Orks or Wolves and just didn't want the rest.

What I can't stand are the people that buy it purely to turn around and sell it again without even doing it to get something other than a profit on their cash on it. I've seen people like that at game stores who check in for limited edition or rare stuff in different games and they buy it just to turn around and sell it when the want for it goes up even though they don't play said game in the first place.

Apologies- I should've elaborated a bit more on my post. That's pretty much the point I was trying to make.

Of course, the point could be made that this is only made possible by GW's choice to only produce this stuff in limited quantities...


Well, that, and peoples' willingness to pay ridiculous amounts of money for hard-to-get stuff. Scalping only works so long as people are willing to pay the prices... and most of the time with the stuff that winds up on eBay, that price is set by the buyer, not the seller.

If people actually started saying 'You know what, I'm not prepared to pay more than the retail price for that' the practice would dry up fairly quickly.

The thing is given that the price of a GW plastic character at retail currently is £10-12 then the 2 limited character models going for anything from £15 to £25 each is not that bad, and it will only go up.

Ebay is weird though. Currently Wyrd are offering a limited Malifaux mercenary in crew box sets that retail at £27-30. I have seen the solitary limited model going for £20+ on ebay already. The thing is the model is in every crew box currently at retail, the people wanting the model would be better off paying the extra 7 quid and selling/swapping the stuff they do not want.

Stormclaw holds no interest for me, the new Dark Vengeance is an entirely different kettle of Orks.

Hey gang,

Just wanted to confirm with those that have it. The regular troops are all standard sprues with options and bits just like you bought the specific figures regular sets right? Still thinking about picking this up since there is a GW store nearby and I have an Ork Army.

Thanks,
Duncan

Exactly the same as the retail boxes for each of the sets although you get a smaller, different transfer sheet.
