Hey guys. Just a very quick question. I'm finally getting to go through the giant crate 'o armies Mantic sent me as part of the KS, and noticed an odd, repeated omission, and i'm wondering if I am just stupid...

Most of my stuff seems as intended, but both of my Orc Mega-Army bundles, are short exactly the same elements. I've got 18 Great-Ax Orcs (versus the 20 I should have), and 36 Orc Axe (versus the 40), and the Fight Wagons/Chariots have no crew.

I ask only because the exact same shortages appear with both mega-armies, while my other eight mega armies (of various factions) are complete.

I can't remember the makeup of the orc sprues to say what the solution is. If you think stuff is mispacked, use the missing items form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1l4oVhkzkrVzS1kYEs567bN_-_Iv6m9JrBXQTNEDEHH8/viewform

That was my plan, but since it was such a consistent mispack I thought I would ask to see if my own counts/eye were somehow off.

Its so weird that I have such a massive order, all of it perfect, and then duplicated/specific errors.

I think part of the counts also being so off is that Orc Command sprues can't make actual bodies, and need other models to build from.

I can't say anything about the axe or great-axe, but the chariots don't exactly come with crew-- they come with a standard orc sprue and some restic parts to customize them.

Same here. I multibase so it isn't a huge issue for me as I don't use the full 20 to a regiment anyway.

I figured as much, but that just means I am missing even more of those "basic" Orc sprues.

Thanks all.
