Doesnt it make it more frustrating though? if they can sell models at that price point but then sell Sigmarines at $10 a model or $11.60 for the latest Paladin's.
Amazingly enough, that's actually a price DROP for Censer Bearers. They used to be 2 models for $14 USD, or $7 a model. Now you get 5 models for $33, so a $2 savings.
Hold on, some dude on a white horse just went by my window...

So is the Plague Priest just Skrolk repacked with a round base and no longer called Skrolk?

Still can't see enough of the Bloodreavers to decide if I'll get a box. It's proving surprisingly easy to de-Khornify the ones from the starter box, but at first glance these guys look to have even more iconography particularly on the weapons. On the one hand I'd like more poses so my 3 Chaos Marauder Mordheim warbands don't look like the same bunch of guys in different outfits, but on the other modern GW fantasy kits typically aren't very posable and a 20-strong box, while a positive step from a pricing PoV, will likely only have 5 or 10 poses which are then duplicated to make up the numbers, so I'm not sold yet.

"The language of modern British politics is meant to sound benign. But words do not mean what they seem to mean. 'Reform' actually means 'cut' or 'end'. 'Flexibility' really means 'exploit'. 'Prudence' really means 'don't invest'. And 'efficient'? That means whatever you want it to mean, usually 'cut'. All really mean 'keep wages low for the masses, taxes low for the rich, profits high for the corporations, and accept the decline in public services and amenities this will cause'." - Robin McAlpine from Common Weal
Look forward to the sprue pics, no interest in the kit or the game. But there's one or two heads I'll be raiding the bits sellers for, assuming they're separate.

Definitely picking up a box. It'll give me 20 ccw guys out my first starter set, 20 with double handed weapons from the box and the other 20 out the second starter set converted up with different heads, arms etc

Well, it's not a "great price" per se, considering that smaller companies sell quality plastic infantry for half the price.. (0,80 GBP/model) But it's ok considering it's GW

So does anyone know of any current model with the Chaos and Totem Keyword? Because 12" range for an extra attack is pretty ace, does the Chaos war shrine have that?
EDIT: Chaos hero with battle standard and in fact the chaos Warshrine!

Also the Bloodsecrator from the starter set, who gives also +1 attack for Keyword Khorne. Bloodreavers can be buffed pretty brutal.
Woah, 3 attacks within range of Warshrine and Bloodsecrator, unit with reaver blades can reroll hits of 1, and you can also pray to your shrine and pick nurgle and reroll failed wound rolls.
Damn, glad I picked up a warshrine months ago!

If it's anything like the other hardback, it will bean easy read with a ton of pictures
I enjoyed the 264 page AoS book more than I thought I would, though I glossed over the scenarios. Someone else said it best, that someone in the play group should have it, but it's certainly a highly shareable book. We'll see with this one, not sure I'll buy it, as it bites too much into my painting time!

Anyway. I actually like them more than I thought I would.(khorne guys)
Not enough to buy though.
Maybe gw know folks are a bit bored of the same release and as its one of the last stormcast releases they maybe just wanted to break it up some more the back page of white dwarf suggests blood warriors could be soon among the khorne stuff mentioned in the book

I understand this. Maybe it be better if they chopped up the weekly releases for a box from the New factions per week.
