Yeah they are better to have than not, as why not.
Just wish they would put the cap bit on all of them.
Half my Conquest ones had it, half didn’t.

Leopard, not that it helps I suppose, but mine was one of the free first deliveries.

oh it doesn't overly bother me, the stuff will turn up, eventually, using the time to work on the actual copy of Soul Wars I bought around Christmas plus the various copies of Issue #1 I bought.

Mrs L. doing similar, except shes actually built all her chainrasps, but painted a handful, I've built & painted 40, with another ten waiting primer.

nice models

the cruddy brushes are semi decent for base painting and for when various younger relatives etc. decide they want to try painting

have plenty of Sequitors spare as well

Still have several things from various Conquest issues to still sort, let alone touching anything from Mortal Realms

was, just about, keeping up with Conquest until about May last year, when the process of moving house started.. have every issue since then in a box

this box scares me

Oh all my boxes of models ‘to do’ scare me.
It’s always a tricky where to start situation.

And unfortunately I’m really good at deciding on starting at Netflix or Xbox, which doesn’t get me anywhere

But slowly getting through things, particularly the building/modelling side of things.

Mine arrived today and with a plastic cap on the brush so that it is undamaged, which is nice. Still not had January's Conquest delivery yet though.

Personally I find my Xbox to be the bane of me ever getting any hobby projects complete

I hear that. And since £1 Game Pass for three years it’s gotten even worse. It’s just easier to pick up in the moment.
That and the kids being in the way all the time

Got first two issues today which was nice.

looks a like a good start

Have we had anyone look more into the models coming yet.
When I first looked at that picture, it didn’t look like it would spread over 80 issues particularly. Unless there’s other bits involved not in the picture.

Though I haven’t broken each model set down by Sprue yet..

this is the most detailed look from the (new) website which is also saying 80 issues

(based on conquest 1 in 4 will be paint which isn't shown , so the minis are over 62 issues not 80)

Yeah they’re the same pictures as prior.
There’s not 60 issues there I don’t think, unless a lot more kits are split so it’s only half per issue etc..

Depends how they split them. I could see the 3 Evacators on Dracolines taking 3 issues as they are individual sprues. Characters probably won’t be split unless bigger ones are. There’s some double ups and a triple up on the Soul Wars castigator sprue.

As best I can tell contents is as follows - NH are tricky to identify so I’m open to correction. Some sets are 2 half sprues so far they have been packed unsplit so I counted them as 1 full sprue.

Most of what you list isn't made of multiple sprues but a single sprue broken in 2 or 3 parts for boxing. I doubt they'll split those as it could lead to massive mispacks, plus leftover partial sprues if certain issues sell better than others.

About 23-25 for SCE. 22ish for NH. Assuming only a few splits. (Prime. Mortis Engine).
13 scenery there if that split seems plausible.

I guess that leaves 20 for paints.
But was it that many before..?

There were 14 paint only issues in Conquest according to my list.
A few paints were with models a couple of times, but not often.

So perhaps there’ll just be 12-18 more paints in this Sub

Fair points about the splits I forgot some of the sprues are the triple type split and I wasn't able to check the actual sprues earlier.

I've modified the terrian list as the timeworn ruins - ruins and fallen statue are 2 halves of an a larger sprue so those 2 become 1 issue and the Statue and base are also 2 halves but they are going to be 2 issues anyway as you get 2 so no change there.

I think partly it’s cost of model to depend on the splits.
Felthius for £25 is three half sprues but all fit in one mag.

But anything above that is more likely to have been split.
An exact list of issues, and then we will be able to put prices to them easier.
We didn’t get that until what 20 odd issues into Conquest? So I guess we might just have to wait a while..

my first lot arrived today, happy

Mrs L's first lot (subbed the same day) didn't, I'm being careful not to gloat (much)

wondering if there are going to be a few issues with things like just a gaming mat in, or reference cards or something to make up the count?

its an odd mix, especially since that mortis engine thing as far as I can tell isn't even in the Nighthaunt army?

its a beautiful model though

I've edited the prices in or best guess where larger boxes are split (I also corrected some errors as I'd omitted the Farstriders and I realised the Thunderstrike box has 10 Liberators so that accounts for all of them). Very few go over £25. The £27.50 characters are unlikely to be split. I can see the 3 Evocators on Dracolines being 3 issues as they have an individual value of £11.66 each and are separate sprues. The Mausoleum gate and base sprue might be in 1 issue. The Gryphhounds issue will have to have a paint to make it worth the £7.99 price.

Nice work!
Looks a lot more easily laid out that way.
Can get a proper value here now I think.
(Though I will just split the Soul Wars by true value divided by sprues. Just to get a “how much it would cost outside of the magazine” kind of thing)

As someone who signed up for the trial run, I've just received the free ' Thank You' issues along with the request for my payment details.

Sorry Hachette, love the free glue and issues 1 and 2 but I never intended to go for the whole sub.

I thought by not replying and providing the details, they would never send me the free stuff. They've received the email now.

They've had some money out of me for Conquest though. Multiple Rhino issues, an extra order for the Repulsor issues, several Primaris character issues and I've bought the additional books and am awaiting the additional Marines and paint set.

All in all, if buyers get the same enjoyment from Mortal Realms that I've had with Conquest, they're in for a good time.

The only fly in the ointment could be Customer Service issues but hopefully this new move will help out. That said, I've not had any problems with my subscription so I've never had to experience that side of things.

I’m still unsure what to do but was going to at least get the second delivery before stopping.
Still have to contact them about the card setup..

Is anyone else still waiting for their first delivery?

I got mine today, hopefully yours wont be too much longer

Arrived yesterday, through the letterbox, wife's copy came via a 'while you were out card', and had to go fetch it

Arrived this week, already built and undercoated, going to try to get them done on Sunday!

Seems like there should be less paints, not more, given the 2 factions have even less variety in colouring than the Ultras and DG in Conquest. Maybe there are a lot of refills?

Base on the schemes sure.

But I wonder if later issues will be quite random ones.
So like a brown/blue/green or whatever that’s used for a pouch and pretty much nothing else.
Or something on those lines.

definitely possible.
do they have any manner of weird gems and stuff that may be painted in otherwise unused colours too?
that's definitely something I noticed with Conquest; sure the majority of a Space Marine is the power armour, but I can use a dozen more colours on just one piece if I really wanted to. Conquest didn't really cover that.

Yeah. Perhaps more in the way of layer paints. And shades and basing.
I would say perhaps colours that are useful for alternate colour schemes, but that would cheapen the collection in that the end result wouldn’t be one big force. Nighthaunt can vary their spectral style a bit more than stormcasts looking different I suppose..
