I like a lot of what GW have been doing over the past 12-18 months. But they still continue to throw a wrench in things every so often just to piss me off

I fully understand. Just like the OLD White Dwarf, GW expect us to pay for their advertising.

While I am slowly understanding these Twitch and what not services, it still boggles my mine that GW wants us to pay for everything. This is why I SWEAR GW would charge us the very air we breathe in their stores if they could. I mean this is a time period where GW should be expending and getting the word out for "fresh blood". People shouldn't have to pay and get the word out for you, you need to do it your self.

Perfect example. Someone said Mantic. Ok, I thought let me see what this is. "OH I have to pay to watch this content? Not thank you and I still don't know what Mantic is."

Just like for GW. How on earth is GW going to expect to get new and fresh blood or people into "their hobby"? This is the stuff that should be free and trying to make up for all the wrong they have done. Guess it's same old GW trying to squeeze every penny you can. Yes I know they are a company and need to make money. Thing is, they are a company that have burnt a lot of bridges and have a long way of going before they become fully accepted again.

Then again what do I know. I barely know how to use Facebook. I don't know what Twitch really is. I don't know how to tweet. Time has passed me by so I guess I am missing something here when I have to pay for advertising.

I might pick this up anyway, just for the models. I have a small Wych Cult force (seriously just 10 Wyches and a Succubus) that these models would thematically fit with methinks

I don't think anyone is buying this for the game. It's the minis first, and maybe the game second. But I don't think one person said "I am buying this for the game only."

But you do not have to pay to watch the streams ?!

**MeanGreenStompa**

That price is excellent, when you get it through an online discounter, it's going to be even sweeter. Couple of boxes of this game and you have the solid start of a Dark Eldar Army.

**BrookM**

I wonder if Wych torsos are compatible with those of the Reavers and Hellions.

**Nostromodamus**

You can still watch Twitch streams without paying. Warhammer TV runs it's chat in sub-mode which means that if you want to type messages you need to be a paying subscriber, but watching it is free.

I believe so.

Hellions yes, Reavers no.

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Colour me definitely almost certainly picking this up.

I'm most interested in the gang progression shenanigans myself.

Only thing we need now is a pre-order date, though seeing as the FLGS has been notified of it today, it'll probably go up for pre-order on the 21st and go on sale the 28th.

I can confirm that. Got the order sheet.

Wasn't going to go heavy on this, but I might now!

That meme would work better if it actually had a pic of Rikmans Galaxy Quest character rather than Severus Snape.

£35 is bloody amazing, a single set each of Hellions and Reavers together comes to more than that, and theres 2 of each in the box!

**Bull0**

Wow, pretty much a must-buy. Been looking for an excuse to polish off my dark eldar. One of these and a couple of raiders will finish my army nicely

**Bolognesus**

Wow. That really is amazing.
(and yes, eating crow here

)

You're seriously kidding, right?
I like the models in this game, but to me they are a perk, not what makes it a product.

For example, gorechosen is a brilliant game. I bought it, then immediately rethemed it since I think that the khorne angle, while very fitting, is not to my liking. So I just made it into a kaiju brawl game. The citadel models are of zero consideration.

Its pretty amazing how wrapped up in the "hobby" people can be and ignore every other aspect of gaming. Kirby would be proud.

**CragHack**

It's going to be limited on release, though. So speak to your FLGS managers, so they book a copy for you, so you won't have to wait until it's back in stock or be tempted to buy from ebay scalpers.

**Galef**

Anyone thinking of getting some cheap alternative Harlequin Skyweavers might wanna pick this box up. Just cut off the rear fin of the Reaver and glue the Hellion skyboard ontop.
Should get 6 Skyweavers this way for half the cost of buying the 3 boxes of the actual Skyweavers.
Cut off the spikey bits and glue on some masks (the Star weaver alone has a ridiculous amount of extras) and Boom! Half price Skyweavers!

I'm with you, I'm probably more interested in the game mechanics. I have several other manufacturer's miniatures for jetbikes and hoverboards. I'm interested in the models too, but that's not my primary motivation to get the box.

**Grot 6**

If I buy this it will be for the game.

Gangs running around on fast movers slinging chains with blades, hammers, and other deadly implements is up my alley.

I was always one of those wacky kidz running around with dual scissors cutting up the other children. Additionally, using the gangs as army starters, as you slowly add in gladiators, Dark Eldar troops, and small contingents of additional deadly toys is also a good reason to visit Brother Vinnie, and defile more Sisters of Battle...

Additionally, I have an old Dark Eldar Warlord who I am digging out that is entirely on board with this...

**Bottle**

Wow, what a fantastic price point.

**Rayvon**

Not really fussed about collecting DE, I might pick it up for the game at that price though !

Is this better?

As others have said, it seems so, but I don't know how it works. When I click on a link it says I can't watch it because I am not a member. So if you can watch it for free, I don't know how. Again this technology has passed me by now and I feel old.

**Ctaylor**

You can watch the live stream for free (when they are broadcasting). You have to be a subscriber to that channel to watch replays.

**Ragnar69**

The models alone are 107€ so this is a 58% savings for some stunning models....I'm surely tempted but not interested in an DE army

That seems like a bass ackwards way of doing it.

**Hulksmash**

Makes sense. Pay if you want convinience (or use your free prime emembership like I did). I like it.

As for the game box this is nice!

I will be buying it for the game, the models are a secondary concern and I will most likely sell them.

Just asked my local store and it is confirmed: €45,- for the boxed set!

Same price as Gorechosen! YAAAY!

$60 USD.

Crap. Was hoping it would be $80 or so.
Didn't want to even consider it as an option.

Thirded. Game means more than minis to me but hope they have some game play videos up on youtube before this drops.

**ZergSmasher**

I hope the game's good, because I'm definitely thinking of getting this with it being only $60. I should probably pick up Gorechosen as well since I'm a huge Khorne fan (shame on me for not getting it already

).

**Breotan**

Wow. This box is a 53% discount right off the bat. I need to check my DE to see how many I need to max out my force org chart.

**angelofvengeance**

Sorely tempted by this, just for the stupendously cheap Reaver Jetbikes. Got Hellions covered.
