I am not fimilliar with Fantasy or Age of Sigmar. I am looking at the Lord Heldraths Chaos Deathtide and it looks awesome. http://www.games-workshop.com/en-CA/Lord-Heldraths-Chaos-Deathtide.

Not asking if it plays well since I only play with my kids and we change our rules as we see fit. But do you get any savings?


This boxed set is a fantastic, instant collection of gruesome Slaves to Darkness miniatures, which you can use to bolster an army or even as the foundation for a new one! You’ll receive a Chaos Lord on Manticore, five Chaos Knights, a Chaos Chariot, a Gorebeast Chariot, sixteen Chaos Warriors and ten Chaos Marauder Horsemen!


So I am trying to look on the GW site and I don't see no Gorebeast Chariot and for Chaos Knights I see them in a group of 10, so why would we only get 5? Maybe they are different? Can anyone explain this set to me please? I am a bit confused. I guess I am use to seeing GW boxes as exact things you can buy separately but in this case I am not seeing it.



Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

There's a pretty big savings. It's about 2/3rd the price as buying those models separately.

They used the pic of 10 knights because they probably didn't have a pic of 5, but that should be changed.

The gore beast chariot can be made from the chariot sprue as an alternate, just as the manticore lord can be a sorcerer lord too. They just arbitrarily choose which ones to list in their descriptions, but all versions that can be built in the regular boxes can also be built in the bundle deals (same for start collecting boxes).

Mathing it out separately since we're both using Canadian dollars:

Manticore Lord - $65
Chaos chariot - $50
Chaos chariot - $50
16 Chaos Warriors - $50
10 Marauder horsemen - $60
5 chaos knights - since they only come in 10 for $70 now we'll call this $35

Total: $310

Thank you Coldgaming, greatly appreciated. This looks really good. Now I might get this once I finish off the Orks and Malignant starter sets.
