I just received the first two issues in the mail, and the invoice lists:

1 x FREE gifts in your collection
1 x Issue 1
1 x Issue 2
1 x Satisfaction guaranteed

Issues 1 and 2 are pretty obvious, the satisfaction bit is typical dumb marketing, but there was no third physical item in the package, so I'm not sure what the FREE gifts are referring to.

Any ideas if that is just more marketing BS for random future stuff, or is it something in the issue 1 bag, or was I shorted something?

I was in FP yesterday and they had a ton of the Wraithlord ones on the shelf.

Damn! I checked online and it was not on the site at all so I didn't commit to actual visit FB yesterday.

You have to order it from them if you're subscribed, it won't be included automatically.

Not bad at all.

Is this available in Europe/Germany? The price is provided in £/€, but it's not really clear if it's applicable for German subscribers.

Edit: figured it out, two countries are available, United Kingdom and ROI which apparently means Republic of Ireland, explaining the euro price. Hopefully this becomes available in Germany, too.

I got mine today and same confusion. Issue 1 says "Free poster" on the back, so maybe that's it?

Not a great gift, but it's something.

UK based here. Am looking to get in on the Chaos stuff, am I able to jump on the Premium Subscription from issue 31? With a cursory look I cannot find that as an option on the Hachette site.

Sadly not, from the FAQs here https://warhammercombatpatrol.hachettepartworks.com/?utm_medium=button&utm_source=collectionpage&utm_campaign=A85

Please note that premium subscription is not available to those starting their subscription from Issue 6 onwards.

They'll be in subsequent deliveries.

What issue are Germans on? You might have to wait till the mid twenty issues to get this offer.

In the previous 40K Hachette partswork ‘magazine’, did the various special offers ever change for the different territories?

I got the email between issues 26 and 27 (the Eldar Windriders ones), so you've a ways to go yet.

I went into the Forbidden Planet in Birmingham recently. They didn't have the issue that I wanted, despite it being the day of release. When I asked a member of staff how soon they sold out he said "instantly" with a smug smile.

I've previously been into other FP shops that had excess copies of popular issues, so I guess you just have to hope that your luck is in.

They often put stuff on shelves the day before in my experience... FP is massively hit or miss.

Been to FP megastore yesterday... Loads of Gaunts, paint pots and jetbikes. Not much more than that.

If you were there Thursday last week you'd have watched the shelves get cleared after the restock. I managed to pick up a wraithlord and some other bits like issue 1.

I was there Tuesday and then went back on Thursday to buy the Tim Burton new art book... this was around 17:00 and no there was no restock? You are talking London main Megastore near Tottenham court correct?

Do you have a smooth, silken tongue and thirty issues worth of Premium add on cash available?

Give Hachette customer services a whirl...if you can actually talk to someone.

He who dares Rodders.

I am in the US just got charged for issues 3,4,5,6. My question is I see the layout for the first 40 issues or so. I see the 10 termagants in issues 6,7. But I also see another set in 17 and 18. Did this happen? Or is 17 and 18 something else. Cause the cp only has 20. Doesn’t need 40

It's ten termagants per two issues

Each of those sets of two issues is for 10 termagants collectively, so there are 20 total over the run.

Well that’s a bummer :(. I was mainly just interested in the old ork set. Looks like I’ll be waiting till sometime next year I guess.

Issues up to number 40 just dropped on Forbidden Planet, Wraithguard and Chaos Termies...

Nice. I have been waiting for the wraithguard one (issue 39).

I'd been waiting for the Terminators. My random F5s paid off today, I don't imagine that they'll be available for long!

I will go there tomorrow after work.
