I personally think the Tau line of models are very good price wise and Eldar are the worst.
What do you think is the best value models?

I don't think he means per point, rather than for bits you get in the boxes.

If he means what I think he means, Space Wolves are easily the best value. Sooooooo many bits on those sprues.

DE are generally really good value, for me.

TONS of spare bitz and the prices aren't all that grotesque either, if you avoid the finecast models which don't come with any spare gubbins.

Plus the models look awesome.

The Viletide: Daemons of Nurgle/Deathguard: 7400 pts
Disclples of the Dragon - Ad Mech - about 2000 pts
GSC - about 2000 Pts
Rhulic Mercs - um...many...
Circle Oroboros - 300 Pts or so
Menoth - 300+ pts

I'd vote the Ork nobs kit because you get 5 large models with lots of options and for only £15.

Worst? defiantaly the new Dire Avengers. Shame on you GW!

Seconded. I find the DE range to be one of the most reasonably priced from GW. But ssssshhh. If we say that too loud they'll ramp it up!

The Annihilation Barge comes with the only Highlord w/ Warscythe available at the moment and the price is actually reasonable too.

Also the Grey Knight Boxes are really good for the bits you get, but the best imho is still the DA conversion sprue. You can't get 5 powerarmored guys and handful of bits for 15 € anywhere else from gw.

Playing mostly Necromunda and Battletech, Malifaux is awesome too!

I tried to work out this exact question

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?key=0Ajcmo83UaloSdGRrS2tXVjdRSlQzM19KdkhDM3hKUnc&pli=1

Didn't get very far.

Might attempt to update it as this was before even 6th edition.

+10 for the Annihilation barge. A free Necron lord? Yes please.

What about Kommandos? No options all in finecast. Better just to order forgeworld kit and use boys and nob.
