Well the people writing the game don't have a basic understanding of how the game works, so the marketing team's got no hope!

Not that I need to buy these mind you, just for academic curiosity. Really.

So the big box value is almost 240€? That would sound like a good deal, if those prices weren't outrageous to begin with.
I hope this box aint gonna go OOP anytime soon, can't afford it right now with HH 2.0 coming up and everything..
Compared to this, that recent Zone Mortalis & Gang Stronghold bundle is starting to sound like a great deal.

Seeing it's product for this season one would presume they want it on reasonably within this season period and the half the year isn't that much longer left. Surprisingly late release rather.

The box is about what I expected to be honest.
I will probably pick one up, I've got stacks of ruins and that complete Sector Frontieris from Kill Team and these will complement those nicely.

Is 175€ the new price point for what used to be 160€ big boxes? Seems like that would be in line with the percentile increase GW advertised, if I remember correctly. I like the terrain, but that's an awfully big number.

My local group thinks it's a good deal for the amount you get. I have to admit the 30x44 board looks well covered. But I'd personally rather save for a second Ash Wastes.

Ok, now GW covers all the basic types of terrain - Sector Fronteris is intact buildings/hills/walls, Sector Imperialis is ruins and Sector Mechanicus is platforms/woods.
There are plenty of barricades spread out in different kits, so now all we miss is a good, official set of craters, I guess?
Oh and most of the Sector Imperialis stuff, which seems to be OOP, which is a shame.

U essentially get 2x bunker and stockade boxes in the big box..
The individual boxes are insanely high priced.
I’m hoping the battlezone fronteris box isn’t limited at that reduced price point but even that is just really expensive for what you get… and yes that zone mortalis box of terrain pre-price increase was a good price.

I think the idea is that the landing pad is functionally a hill, even if it's a structure.

That box included nothing new though. It also didn't include any of the walkways, just pipes, so it wasn't a great set. This box looks a lot more promising though.
I'll probably try to grab one but I don't think I could justify the individual kit prices.

Intact buildings are also hills, or at least the low Fronteris style buildings are. Putting an intact building on top of the landing pad makes it a tiered hill

Yikes, that is hefty price tag. Certainly more than 10% over previous two Battlezones. Closer to +33% compared to Battlezone: Charadon in EUR.
I am seriously considering painting some of my previous scenery before buying more. Of course I am not going to do it, but I am considering.

Ahhh, I see what they meant now, thanks.
It's been a while since I've played 40K, and even longer since I played an edition of 40K with functional terrain rules, but in those days a hill would have still been a little different from a low structure (at least after I changed my building style from tiered hills to more scenic, naturally sloping hills). In that paradigm a hill would offer three potential conditions to a model that was shorter than it -- completely behind it/out of LOS, traveling up the hill and able to acquire LOS while in cover, or on top of the hill/on the downslope and uncoved/in LOS. A low building only offers the first and third of those conditions (unless it has elevated details to stand models on around its outline).
