Hey Dakka board members! I'm new to the Fantasy section, but used to play 40k many many years ago. So long ago that my only 40k army was a squad of Eldar dire avengers. In other words, I'm a n00b. I'm interested in starting a WHFB army and have eyed the Skaven, Orcs&Goblins and Lizardmen with much pizzazz.

I've been thinking about getting the Battle of Skull Pass boxed set with paints included. In the US, I heard it was 45$? Is this correct? If i do get this set I'm planning on building up a night goblin force from that point onward until i get bored. Any advice is usefull!! Thanks guys!

With a name like Doctor Skaven, how can you consider anything else but Skaven

Hello and welcome, new myself but not to the hooby. I do recommend skull pass no matter what army you choose. It's a great jumping off point and one of the best deals GW offers.

Welcome! Yes, BfSP is a great idea. If you're considering either Dwarves or Orcs & Goblins as an army, or if you're just a new player looking to learn the game, it's really a bargain. And you can usually sell the figures online later if you pick up another army and decide you don't want the boxed set models anymore.

thanks for your replies, guys. I'll look into BFSP.
