New Eldar Battleforce!

**pizzaguardian**

Wow they actually did go through with going the 100% price increase on dire avengers.

Btw; new box design

**MandalorynOranj**

Anyone pick up on this from the Wraithknight page?:

Its left arm can be equipped with either a wraithcannon or a scattershield. The right arm has a choice of wraithcannon, ghostglaive or suncannon.

So looks like no double suncannon, only 3 S6 AP2 blasts a turn.

**Vivster**

I love the new boxes the minis come in now!

**Bloodhorror**

£70 for the Knight...

£70 for the Battleforce containing 17 models... Old ones at that...

I Think GW just fethed me.... Still, I hope WW has some Dire Avenger Boxes left over tomorrow! Gonna buy as many as I can before they become oop

I have to agree with this. Very nice looking.

**Slayer222**

LOve the new stuff so much, especially the wraith guard/blade.

**Compel**

Oh wow... The prices. Wow

**Medium of Death**

No Iyanden book?

**Vivster**

What are these support batteries - didnt hear about them until now

**AegisGrimm**

Wow, Vypers now only as a 3-box, for 75 dollars..........Urgh, or the support batteries for 65....

Good God, the Wraithguard are the best buy of the entire release.

**Slayer222**

Holy, the giant wraith is 140, not the 115 it was supposed to be

**AegisGrimm**

Nope, US store shows it as $115.

**Crimson**

Illic Nightspear seems to be a HQ choice instead of a squad upgrade.

**Enigma**

Hmmm... Wraith knight is listed under HS and the flyers as FA
...Wraith guards are under Elites... pretty much as expected then

Iyanden book is said to come 15 days later iirc.

And that plane is much better looking with 360 vision then on the leaked pics.

You're on the Canadian site, not the US site.

I'm surprised at all the "Three model" boxed sets coming out. It's interesting to see that come out.

Yup!

Mwhahahahahahaha...

**AegisGrimm**

I don't understand why everything is a three-pack now. Well, I do, but you know what I mean.

I guess GW has determined that it should be impossible to spend less than 20 dollars on any purchase from them anymore, to bolster their "sales".

My US site showing 125$

Edit: and on a refresh its 115$ lol.

**Carthuun**

Perhaps the Vyper will be worth fielding now that they come in threes and the battleforce...yeah right, who am I kidding.

Ah, thanks!

Agreed, the 360 makes everything look so much better.

That Iyanden Wraithknight... oh... gods... my wallet... argh!

**Popenfresh**

360° view of the WK makes it look pretty nice actually, it's just that chest armor that's OTT., rest of the model is fine. I also don't understand why people were bashing on the flyer so much, it's infinitely better than the fugly FW stuff, especially the side view looks nifty.

You were on the Australian site, where it is $125.
New Zealand has it for $150.
Canada has it for $140.
US has it for $115.

On another note: I like the new box that it looks like they're doing for the Eldar. There's no messy photoshop art, just a black background and pictures of the models.
It's plain but rather...almost dignified I guess?

**Tyranid Horde**

Hey, just so you know, you make a saving of £4 on Eldar Jetbikes now and £8 on the vypers... SCORE!! GW now introduces great new prices!

**Maelstrom808**

Holy crap...they are actually offering a discount on Necron Destroyers: New 3 pack for $50 compared to 1 for $20

The end times are upon us....

**Tyranid Horde**

Hell has truly frozen over alright...

**AegisGrimm**

Yeah, you just have to have more money to access at any one time!

Overall price isn't everything. Sometimes I only have thirty dollars to spend on my hobby stuff, not seventy-five.

And even if i did, if I only needed one Vyper, before this I could spend the other now-45 dollars on something else.

**Compel**

I suppose this is more of a preview of their next price rise as well...

God knows what the baneblade and Stompa will go up to, if the Wraithknight is £70.

Think the Razorwing will go up to £40 as well? I imagine even the storm talon will, it's tiny. But then, so is the tau flyer...

**Theorius**

360 on the wraith knight it definitely has a jet pack.

**Valkyrie**

So they reduce the number of models in the Dire Avengers box by half while keeping prices exactly the same?

Even for GW, that's a hell of a dick move, no doubt that DA will be a superb must-include choice in the book, best taken in squads of 10...
