Are they allowed to advertise 20% off? Thought GW limited advertised discounts to 15% in their trade terms.

This is a 2 wave release, the first batch of stock will be available for the release date of the 25th July, the second is due to arrive in late August. You will be informed which wave your order is as soon as we can.

Don't panic guys. It looks like GW is not gonna make just one wave of this.

Artificial shortage.

It has been noted to me that maybe that store is just having their whole allocation divided between two waves so don't take my word as granted.

They had 228 when I looked at 10am. Personally I'm suspicious at that number given the 45 copies rumour that's been going around so I wouldn't be too hopeful (sorry). Then again, if we're being optimistic, hopefully they (and all retailers) will be able to fulfill all orders given time (this would make most sense to me).

The very next day after being told by GW they'd only get 45, my local was told that that they were receiving considerably more than 45. GW backtracked on that 45 real fast.

Firestorm are now up:

Yeah... i'm thinking they can bite my shiney ass on that one. Splitting their core rules into two books so that you have to buy twice is scummy even for GW.

The starter box will be released this year, I guess even with covid-19 not later than September, so I will wait for that one.

I believe they experimented with 8th, having dark imperium, the medium tier starter and the First Strike.


Maybe thats how things are gonna be now. A big, limited box for us veterans to fight ourselves over, a medium one for actual new people and the "I'm gonna gift you this" smaller one.

The only time the core rule book has had the points in it have been Rogue Trader and 3rd Ed, why is this suddenly expected? Even 8th "made" you buy the Indexes for both points AND PL until the instruction pamphlets in the boxes changed.

Love plastic crack and it's effects.

2 weeks ago it was "9th edition sucks, the new Space Marines suck".

Now it's "GW suck for not producing enough boxes that contain models that suck and are ugly."

I've seen meth junkies act less obsessed than this.

FYI, I put my order in but than I've always been on "9th is great and the new marines will look good as Dark Angels".

I'm looking forward to the WarCom article in the evening that you can now preorder Indomitus long after its already sold out
Maybe they will confirm or deny the Wave 2 in August thing in that article but probably not

Eh gw hasn't sold for decades points with rulebook. Last time 3rd ed index level

You're so addicted you can't even criticize your dealer.

Everybody talking about the indomitus box and I'm just over here waiting for points leaks.

IDGAF about getting indomitus on day 1. They'll have shelves full of them eventually just like they did with the sisters box. Just gimme the points bro. I need my points.

Because you went by those in your codex still.

Not... Rulebook + Codex + Chapter Approved + Psychic Awakening.

And white knights will claim 8th is still less bloated than 7th.

There was literally nothing stopping them from releasing new points in a PDF through WarCom.

Again you assume that the people saying one thing are the same people saying another thing.

I want the new FW books I have lots of pretty models that are unplayably over pointed

Eh gw has never ever sold points with main rulebook

1st through 3rd they did, and 4th through 7th they didn't have to. 8th gets a pass as it was all change.

9th though they are double dipping on the edition update. It's a £65 rulebook.

No rule book has had the points in it? Ever.

Points are in your Codex, CA updates them?

This is Dakka, home of assumptions. It's assumed that the vast majority of 40k players IN THE WORLD hate 9th edition, or at least a lot of regular posters would have people believe when I see "nobody" or everybody" or "the majority".

So I just jumped on the assumption bandwagon, trying to fit in with the cool kids.

I'm really unsure if I want to buy this CA.
Buying the book for points is a waste of money, since I haven't looked more than twice inside the last one. Unless BS dies tomorrow, I highly doubt I will need it.

Sure, more missions are nice and everything, but we've got a pile of new missions, crusade mode and a whole new game to play until the next CA in winter will be released.
I think I'll rather buy a plague surgeon instead of this.

I mean... commentary on how GW is utilizing marketing practices to create artificial scarcity as a tool to manipulate consumers into making purchases without investing the proper level of consideration for FOMO isn't because we're all so garsh darn jonesing for the models.

Here's a hint, I did not preorder any boxes. I don't pre order things from GW. In general I just don't pre order. Pre orders are, largely, bad (and also why a donation to kick starter should be considered charity and not a purchase as a complete aside).

Will I end up with an indomitus box? Well never a full one, but if one of the handful of necron players in my community is in the store and I'm in the store and there's a box, I'd shell 100 for the marine half, provided someone way more into marines isn't also there and wants to split it.

This has always been my paradox with GW codexes. I budget the money for my hobby. Sometimes I can budget a rather lot of money. But every dollar spent on a book isn't a dollar I spend in addition. It's a dollar out of my budget, that I'd rather spend on a model.

You're so addicted you can't even criticize your dealer.

Just because you have negatives to say about them doesn't mean everyone else does.

Is GW as a company perfect? No but no company is because no human is perfect. I can name lots of other companies who have, at times, not made enough product to fill demand.

I'm not going to stop buying models because GW makes a few mistakes. If I didn't buy product from companies that made mistakes I'd starve to death or have to produce my own food, make my own clothes, build my own car, etc.

I'm just laughing at the sheer lunacy of the "GW sucks and their rules suck crowd" freaking out because they can't buy that thing they hate from a company they can't say anything good about. LOL.

I mean, their models are the only thing that don’t suck besides maybe raw ease of getting a pickup game, and this is primarily a model release.

Again, this isn't likely to be a mistake. It's just marketing. And that should be a problem.
