Don't buy Canadian. You don't have it as bad as Australia and New Zealand, but you're still 1/3rd more expensive than just buying from Maelstrom. Whose pre-orders have just gone up!

Can some kind soul post up pics and prices for the Blocked at Work among us?

(US $ is you can!)

Thanks!

Archon - $15
Lelith - $15
Warriors - $25
Wyches - $25
Raider - $33
Reavers - $35
Incubi - $30

Codex £17.50 / $29


Reavers £21 / $34.75


Raider £20 / $33


Incubi £18 / $29.75


Warriors £15 / $24.75


Wyches £15 / $24.75


Archon £8 / $15


Lelith £8 / $15

The pics probably won't have much new information, the most important thing is that Lelith comes with two different left arms, one with a lance and one with the dagger we've already seen.

Yay for options

wow I have been really on the fence about what my next force would be, but I may just have to jump on this bandwagon

Damn, there sure is alot of vaiety units on GW's page...

In their defense, these new codexes are considerably larger than 3rd and 4th ed ones.

I'm considering Lelith, 1 set of Incubi, 2 sets of Warriors, 3 sets of Wyches, but I'm holding off until I get to see the codex. It looks like I'll be spending $150-200 (American) less then I expected !!! Yay for decent prices!

That actually has me really excited, I did not expect to see prices that low.

I may go ahead and start buying models in this coming month (before they go up)!

My original plan was to pick up the codex and Lelith, and wait on everything else, but I may go ahead and buy a couple of Raider, some Wyches and Warriors, and possible a unit of Incubi, to start, and work from there.

Same plan here Sainthazard.

Alright, now for the million dollar question:

Which one is a better deal (for an american): Going directly to thewarstore.com? Or maesltrom games with the 15% off coupon?

/shrug I buy all my stuff at an LGS that gives a 20 dollar discount for every 200 you spend.

None of the DE stuff is even up on the TWS yet anyways.

Same here. I'll be buying from my FLGS, who give me a 10% discount on small orders and a 15% discount on large orders (typically $150 or more).

Grab a Calculator and find out!

I'm so happy I could almost cry

My two armies were DE and Alpha Legion. The Legion pretty much went away with the new Chaos Codex, and the play style 5th edition pushed on DE was not to my liking. Consequently, I have hardly played any 40K at all in the last year.

Haha...I just got my car paid off three months ago; I know where that money is going for the next couple of months...

I didn't realize they had been posted! Lets see:
maelstrom(all prices include additional 15% coupon)/the war store(assume standard 20%)
Codex: 22.22/23.2
Lelith: 10.16/12
Archon: 10.16/12
Incubi: 22.86/23.8
Wyches/Warriors: 19.85/19.8
Raider: 25.40/26.4
Reaver: 26.66/27.8

Maelstrom will only save you/me a few bucks... I suppose the real question is how much does maelstrom charge for shipping? Thewarstore is about 6USD regardless of what you order? I never ordered from maelstrom, can someone clue me in?

I will start out with Codex, Archon and a box of Witches.

I still like the old models for the Incubi and Raiders.

Already got my hands on some Harlequins. At some point I will update my Warriors and Lelith.

chaos0xomega wrote:I suppose the real question is how much does maelstrom charge for shipping?

Shipping is free if you spend more than 10 pounds. Just remember that the 15% discount includes the normal 10% discount, it's not 25% total.

.....Maelstrom it is!!!

Though with the amount I intend on ordering, I don't think it would make much of a difference either way. It would only had a few cents per box if I got it through thewarstore.

And I didn't realize this, but Maelstrom does a tiered discount.
So through maelstrom, I can get:

Codex
Archon
Lelith
3x Incubi
1x Warrior
1x Wych
3x Raiders
3x Reavers
for 339.38!!

But I'm still left wondering if there is a way to turn them Incubi into troops... Such pretty models...

So disapointed they didn't show us anything new..... Damn GW and their secrecy!!!! On a positive note prices aren't too bad ! Especially when I get my 40 percent off for running a tournament or two for the lgs!!! I love small towns!

The price on the Raider looks nice, but then it makes the Rhino look way overpriced (as it is) by comparison. Where are my marines hanging off the rollbars? Or rollbars for that matter?

chaos0xomega wrote:I suppose the real question is how much does maelstrom charge for shipping?

See that number just below 1 and just above -1?

That's how much.

Well, here I go:

Codex
3 Boxes of Wyches
3 Boxes of Warriors
6 Raiders

That'll be the start. I'll follow on with some ravagers and more of whichever troop choice I like more I'll have to pick up some bikes and stuff out of tournament winnings I'm thinking.

These prices are very attractive indeed.

Temptation to start a new army... must resist!

*fishslap*

Snap out of it, man!

Although, I must say. I expect a Battleforce to go up for preorder around Christmas shopping time beginning. It's a brilliant strategy to get people buying individual boxes right now, then spring out the Battleforce just in time for it to be Christmas presents.

Also, I preordered the book. And a box of Wyches. They look like they're going to be insanely fun to paint.

I was about to post I've just received the mail announcing the pre-order, but I guess I'm late :p
... On the other hand, at the risk of derailing the thread, has anyone else noticed the bit on non-dark vanilla jetbikes getting redone ?

It's so hard right now not to wip out the ye olde credit card and buy as many as I can, but I want to support my LGS so I'll have to wait for Nov : [ .

Anyone notice the blurb from Jes re: Craftworld Jetbikes?

Jes: The Reavers are perhaps the best example of the similarities and differences between Craftworld and Dark Eldar design. The Craftworld jetbike design was looking dated and had been earmarked for a future remake, so it made sense to work on the designs simultaneously. Although the basic layout of the chassis, the carapace, the rider position, the fins and the weapon pod would stay constant, the styling had to reflect the divergence of the two factions from a common root. A common chassis with maquette rider was produced as the first stage.

When I saw one of the Archon heads, the first thing that popped up in my head was: Chaos (warrior) Lord of Slaanesh!
And that Ahrha spoiler just made my day.
