As i read it,the chaplain has been cast in limited numbers and every box will have one in until they had no more chaplain mini's left to go in the boxes.

I hope to get to my flgs to get a box with him in it.

You are reading it wrong.

There is a box with them and a box without them and both will available at launch date. They will be sold separately until the chaplain is sold out.

**Robbietobbie**

Do the pre-orders go up at exactly 00:00 GMT + 1 (summer time in the UK)?

**Melcavuk**

They did when the rulebook went up. Well about two minutes before that actually

From what I've heard, there's two release dates, too. 1st for the LE w/ Chappy, and the next week for the standard.

Also, can we go back to the old non-avatar quotes? The multi-quotes mess up a lot now.

**Robbietobbie**

Thnx. Let's just hope the limited edition will still be available when I get up for work at 06:00 gmt+1.. think i'd better not stay up for it

**Melcavuk**

Sadly I'm getting up for work at the same time but I'll be ssd enough to be refreshing GWs site at midnight to get my order.

I'd honestly be very surprised by that, but I think we'll find out pretty soon!

**Robbietobbie**

Who knows.. maybe I will too. The chaplain really might be worth it.. And if I dont find a use for him I might be able to make a neat little profit by selling him in a month or so

I can confirm it because I was at my flgs while the owner was on the phone with his rep and I had him ask and the rep confirmed two releases on different dates.

Same at my store.

So, to be clear, will FLGS have the limited set on the 1st as well?
And then the regular on the following week?

I'd assume so, it's LGS' owners I heard it from originally.

**MarkyMark**

**Bloodfrenzy187**

This. You get bored easily when you don't currently have a job.

**matphat**

In a few hours? Where are you living?

Bah! Bad timing for me. Wife's parents are in town for a week. I'll be available again come the Wednesday after next. We have a good little group forming on Wednesday nights that also does some stuff on Saturdays.
Let's keep in touch.

**Luminous Lizard**

Never pre ordered anything from GW, would I pay tomorrow if I go into the shop or just a deposit?

**MarkyMark**

Me little flag says UK so its 10.13pm here, less then 2 to go

HI, I started anouther thred without reasling that it was poster here but heres my 2 cents. BTW so can you only get the interagtor chaplin if you advance order the set?

The special Chaplain is only available ( for the foreseeable future) in the limited edition versions of this boxset. Once they've gone... so has the model.

One would imagine that there will be some of these versions for sale in the stores, but they'll be the ones that people go for first IMO. So if you do want the model then you're best off putting in a pre-order ASAP.

Thanks, I was just intrested tho Still look quite nice tho.. May pic one up. Was there a ltd mini with AOBR?

**matphat**

So, does that mean I'll be ordering it here stateside at 5pm MST?

**MarkyMark**

If you are ordering it from the uk yes, otherwise i would imagine yours would be Saturday so a few mins past midnight MST

**matphat**

I guess there is no getting past the GW gatekeepers.
I

**Sickynick**

Arrr the suspense is killing me. I need them Dark Angels

I would be very surprised if the US site took time zones into account and didn't put it up for the whole country at 12 CST(since that's what Memphis is in).

I'm really looking forward to having cultists. It will be nice to have some cheap troops to babysit objectives while my marines get in there and do what they do best.

Your not playing them right!

Use them for fodder damn it, FODDER!

Exactly. If you have any cultists alive at the end of the game, not only are you playing them wrong, but you also hate 40k fluff, kittens, and beer.
