I had it in the cart and was at checkout putting in my visa info
Then I thought to myself. $90 for a hardback is not worth it to me, I don't care much for the story and I can get the rules either from the softback or the next army book.
I want the new models but for $90+ idk if that's worth it right now.

I'm really tempted but I dunno whether to bother with the fantasy rumours.
Also in the artwork you can see what I assume is the stormfiends and in the cover with the photo of him you can see another weird gun thing in the foreground.

The book is still in stock in the US. I have to say I'm kind of surprised. The website also seems to have recovered.
|
High Elves- 2100 pts. Dark Angels- 3000pts.
Space Wolves-1600pts. Astra Militarum 800pts. Tomb Kings-12000pts. |

My guess is the crash + pulling them from lgs + limiting to one per order slowed it all down.

Judging by the description of what is in the book, it does not look like there will be Stormfiends(armored rat ogre) miniatures.
It also includes background and rules for the full range of new Skaven miniatures, including five Verminlords: Verminlord Corruptor, Verminlord Warbringer, Verminlord Deceiver, Verminlord Warpseer, and Lord Skreech Verminking. As well as this, there are rules and background for the Stormfiends, and Thanquol on the latest incarnation of Boneripper.

I highly doubt they care that the website had issues, they've sold out in Oz and UK within moments of putting it up and got a better margin than if they'd sold it to independent stores. Not sure how many copies they had, but they've probably got a handy couple of hundred grand in the bank.

I got one. That was the most effort I've ever had to exert to get someone else to take my money.

Heh, got all the way through and to the part where Paypal sends me back to the GW site...and got the error. I've never had to work so hard to give someone my money. Looks like the order never went through, and no dice (or book) for me. I give up, I'll give money to my LGS instead and get a digital version of the book.

That indicates there will be Stormfiends models surely...
Also, look at the cover of the book that is the photo of the Thanquol model. What's that weird gun in the foreground? I'm guessing stormfiend... And you can see what I assume is them in the art cover too...
Edit: and see the art above haha.

I fought to get one because I have the other three in hardback and I am a weirdo that wants uniformity. That said, I almost wish I had gotten the softback because they are much easy to carry around.

I fought to get one for the same reason GloboRojo. I also love the story. Granted if I hadn't gotten one I would have put my copies up on Ebay. If I can't have uniformity I might as well go digital.

I too would like uniformity haha and have all the others in softback but I dont know when it will be released although I saw one on Waylandgames, I had to wait ages for my nagash and glotkin so Icant be bothered waiting that long for a bit of saving.
Skaven and Empire were my first ever armies so it would be nice to own this harback.

The description doesn't mention the Stormfiends because the Stormfiend models aren't announced yet.

It does mention them. It doesn't specifically mention their models but nor does it Thanquol.

No they mentioned stormfiends on the rulebook. You just have to hit the 'read more' button.
@Warhams-77: Na that plague priest is from the plague furnace/screaming bell kit. Just turns out somebody took one off the furnace and put it on foot. You can do that already if you wish unless there's a single model option for it now.

I know the feeling, I play high elves and I logged on to pre-order the Khaine book 5 minutes after it went up and it was sold out. I was absolutely gutted.
Luckily, my local GW guy held one for me since I spend so much money there.

Got my hardback, but no dice .I actually wanted them more than the book. At least I got my first HB End Times book. And my new Thanquol.
Damnit, I picked the wrong time to get into fantasy. So much new awesomeness coming out for the army I picked. First world problems, I know
