The Primaris Redemptor Dreadnought and the Primaris Aggressors are already out though. What is the origin of this paper?

They're EZ Build kits.

The other thread on this really has me loving calling the Nurgle commander "Lord Feth".

I also like "Biology Professor" for biologus putrifier

The blight hauler being easy build kind of makes sense. I mean, they really don't have a lot of moving appendages. They're just little nugget cars with mounted guns.

It would be cool if the character and unit(?) is just the lord of corruption from dark imperium with a weapon/head swap. And the unit is the plague brethren with different weapons (even if it's just not a melta gun).

The redemptor dread is really what surprises me the most, as the regular kit seems to sell out so quickly. I'd assume they'd just want to increase production on those.

It's a single hauler?

According to the name of the kit, yes

Very unlikely this will be more than one.

I'm ok with it just being 1 model, as long as it's cheap

How cheap are we thinking these kits are going to be?
Would 20$ for the Hauler be to generous? Maybe 25?

No way that will cost 20$.

The Easy-To-Build intercesors are 12€ for 3. So 4€ a piece. If you buy them in the box of 5 Intercessors, they are 5€ a piece (5 for 25€), but in the normal box of 10, they cost 40€, so they are 4€ a piece, the same as the Easy-To-Build ones.

The Redemptor and the Hauler are a little different because is the first time a Easy-To-Build exist for a kit that is only one model. So who knows. But I'm not expecting substantial discounts on them. Of course, I'll be very glad to be proved wrong.

talked to my local GW guys today and they gave me the pamphlet, looking closely im pretty sure the 3 guys behind the lord are blightlord terminators not plague marines, because they seem to have combi bolters. Also they said they couldnt tell me when they'd be out exactly but they did say definitely before christmas!

Same here. I'm pretty sure that GW is testing the water with these and theyll price them at nearly the same price of a similar ''normal '' kit. If it sells well, GW probably will probably release more and more ETB, and less ''normal'' kits, cause they are probably a lot more profitable (less options means less sprues)

I bought one of the first four Easy to Build because at the end of the day they where 3 more Plague marine sculpts, 6 more Poxwalker Sculpts, and 3 and 3 Primaris sculpts. With this probably I'll do the same.
Maybe not the redemptor because as it is a vehicle, the variety in sculpts isn't as important and the actual redemptor kit is very nice and customizable. So I'm waiting for the price point to know if it is worth it.
The normal is 55€. If this one is 40 or less, then I'll buy one.

Yeah you're right, and they have the Cataphactii arches over their heads too

Thanks, Maxdy746

@maxdy746: THX also from me. Then they should show up in the next weeks. I´m also curios if this are new minis or just streamlined versions from the multikit.

Anyone with access to the Codex know if Land Raiders and Rhino's are something the Death Guard have access to, or do they have their own specific transport vehicles now?

How many Land Raiders would it be worth getting for a regular army for most games? Not sure what points value people play these days for their games on the regular, and have no idea how many Land Raiders it's worth taking any more.

They're in the book.

Land Raiders are about 115 points more than they used to be. But I think they have a good amount of firepower, make a great fire magnet, and will cut down on the number of drops when you stick a unit or 2 inside.

While you're probably right about them actually being Termies, I will note that some of the regular Plague Marines do have those arches over their heads as well. The banner bearer and the guy running with the grenade out (both use the same basic sculpt) both have a similar "hood" thing over their heads. But year, you're probably right. Now I'm disappointed in this set. I was really hoping for some regular Plague Marines.

With how lacking are the normal Bligthlord terminators in poses and customization, I'll prefer 10 times more if they are 3 new sculpts and poses for Blightlords than more Plague Marines.

I feel pretty confident that they're Blightlords. The one on the far left has a Storm Bolter and Bubotic Axe that look just like the ones from the Blightlord kit.

If they are Blight Lords.... Why only 3?

I was a big fan of suicide drop termies in 7th and nearly cried when they bumped them to 5 minimum.

I noticed the Plague Brethren have their own unit composition on Battlescribe, do they actually function as a 3 man unit?

I'd be very pleased if these guys get the same. A poor man's Deathshroud would be sweet.

Yes, the Plague Brethren come with a dataslate to use them out of the box as a 3-man squad. The EZ Build kits also all come with datalsates to use the box with however many guys it includes, like the 3-man Primaris and Plague Marine squads. I would expect the new boxes to work the same way.

There's 4 terminators on the box cover, Theres the Lord guy, 2 guys with a combi bolter and axe, and the guy on the far right has a plague spitter from what I can see

Maybe it's actually a 5 man box?

It’ll most likely be a box of 3 termites and the lord. Seeing as a lot of the other EZ build boxes are boxes of 3, I’m assuming that’ll be how it continues

This would be fantastic if they come with axes. A cheap way to get axes (maybe to even kitbash them onto plague marines?)

As I'm planning to have a list with 2 units of Blightlords, this EZ build box would be a great way to have some more variety in the unit (hoping these guys are different sculpts!)

I'm itching to see what the new lord looks like. Reckon we'll get some previews next week/ the week after? I'm not sure whether they'd show these new EZ build kits off before or after the Angels of Death codex releases

Blight hauler is £15
Lord and terms I think £25 but the pic is very blurry

Anyone else notice the Herald of Nurgle is no longer available for purchase? Not just out of stock, but no longer available.
