I went into my FLGS last night and christmas had come early! The army prizes finally shipped. I put in for a chaos daemon army myself, hoping to go nurgle just for fun, but works out GW really wanted me to play a fatecrusher list. So I will oblige them!

Details:

[4x] Bloodcrusher boxes (3 crushers/ea)
[2x] Battallion Box (10 Horrors, 10 Daemonettes, 20 bloodletters, 5 seekers/ea)
[2x] Soul Grinder
[1x] Daemon Prince
[1x] Lord of Change

According to the invoice prices, $650.75 by MSRP - huzzah! Sure beats out finals. Still no idea what my friend is getting for 2nd place...

So what did you get in your goodie box?

Go take first in 'Ardboyz at the Regional level, then you get to pick up a free army from GW.

Got mine today, same as darkwynn's, nice haul just no hq, can't really complain.

**augustus5**

Looks like IG is the best deal so far, although I think the chaos demons army is pretty good. I'd like to see what they give out for dark eldar.

**mortetvie**

SHould we have gotten our prizes yet? I am still waiting on mine. Also, did they send you guys shrink wrapped boxes or are they sprues and stuff?

**inquisitorlewis**

Prizes like this tempt me to get back into 40k. At least I am playing Killzone at Adepticon this year. Got to start somewhere.

Prizes should be at whatever LGS you told them to ship it to. And all the boxes are regular shrink-wrapped product as would get stocked on shelves.

**Reecius**

I asked for Dark Eldar

Archon
3 x Razorwings
3 x Incubi
3 x Venoms
3 x Raiders
3 x Battleforce
4 x Hellions

$818.75 total.

I am actually going to play it as is, hahaha, just for a laugh!

I got the same exact thing.

**Reecius**

Here's me with my loot!

**skrewpa**

That is a great photo.

**Polonius**

I added my prize up. With no upgrades of any kind, it's 2510pts, with 1 HQ, 2-3 elites, 4-6 troops, 1-2 fast, and 3 heavy support choices.

I wonder who spent an afternoon figuring all of that out.

**Happygrunt**

Great, looks like I have to play Ard Boyz next year. I want a free DE army.

**Reecius**

Haha, it looks like I'm experiencing power from pain!

**mortetvie**

Cool, so the GK stuff comes out to be something like 710ish. I called the guy in charge of validating the prize support and he said my army should be at the store according to tracking but the store doesn't have it, yikes. I guess if nothing gets there by Monday I'll have to do some investigating =(.

And Reece, if you have the FNP special rule, you either failed your FNP save in that picture or you are definitely feeling something else all together...

**Reecius**

Hey, it is Dark Eldar, who knows what I'm feeling!

**08ak1**

Orks:
4 Battleforces (80 boyz, 4 truks, 12 bikerz)
6 boxes of stormboyz (30 boyz)
9 boxes of Lootas/burnas (45 boyz)
6 boxes of Killa Kans (18 kans)
BattleWagon
Mr. Thraka

i do wonder about their "list" given that i have double the possible number of killa kans for any list, and a battlewagon that would have to be from heavy support as well given that no unit they gave me can take one as dedicated....

but without any upgrades of any sort, that 2690 points....1149 dollars

**yermom**

Tau
3 Battleforces
2 Hammerheads
1 Skyray
15 Piranahs...

$850ish
