Latest updates from Fauxhammer and Forbidden Planet

Issue 28 = 3 Spirit Hosts (the front of the issue shows the full three bases, so presumably that's what we're getting)
Issue 29 = Nuln Oil shade, Baneblade Brown paint
Issue 30 = Warcry Scenery (another piece of the Azyrite Ruin)
Issue 31 = Lord-Exorcist
Issue 32 = Citadel Skulls (Unsure how many sprues, possibly the whole box)

The new Hachette site has issues in Chrome, sub detail info doesn't line up on the scroller so you have only half the info visible. Then he delivery info has duplicate entries and only shows two deliveries.

No idea about the bladegheist, no?

Has there been any word as to when this might see release in Australia?
Has it made it to any countries outside the UK yet?

I don't know when it was updated but the Warhammer: Mortal Realms website now has an Australian version with our prices. You can subscribe but there's no mention of when it comes out though and we also don't have a premium subscription option.

I'm hoping its just a placeholder because i was really tempted to subscribe for the full series with premium, If we don't I'll just cherry pick issues like i did with Conquest and at least I'll save myself a few hundred bucks.

the skulls box has 4 non identical spures, small (half 'standard' box size ones) i believe, so hopefully its them all

This partwork is now on sale in Australia (source: I bought a couple of copies of issue 1 from my local newsagent today), and apparently also available for subscription - https://www.warhammermortalrealms.com/
I can't see the 'upgraded' subscription available here yet though.

Seems like the early "Loss Leader" component is quite stacked.

Getting both the Stormcast and Night Haunt models in that first issue seems even better than the 40k Conquest one.

Bloody hell. They snuck that one in didn't they!

That 1st issue is hellishly good value. Gonna have to try and snag a few copies.
It's too bad they swapped out the rad glass tankard for a water pot and palette pad in the subscriber gifts.

The water pot is surprisingly useful! Our household mocked it and would probably never have bought it, but as a freebie... we love it. It's much less likely to get knocked over than a jam jar, and the grooves make getting the paint off your brushes much easier.

You're right about the high value of #1 too... I picked up about six copies. Mostly for the ghosties but at that price, it's also pretty nice to have so many sprues of both sides around that you feel fine chopping them up and converting them, even if you only use small quantities of each sprue. Even the three scenic bases from the Sigmarines are a bargain.

You know, i'd just poo poo'd the water pot as typical over priced GW crap, especially when I have a near unlimited supply of jam jars!

But reading what you said, I went and looked at the webstore page and it seems like it might actually be useful! Ridges for knocking paint off and furrows for shaping the bristles. Like you, wouldn't have brought one, but i'll take it as a freebie.
I was thinking 3 issues plus the subscriber issue for 40 chainrasps. Can't beat 40 models (and the stormcast) for a $24!

As someone who was in for the full 80 issues of the Conquest sub, I can say that I felt like a winner at the end as I had never bought Dark Imperium so the Primaris Ultramarines and the Death Guard were both armies I didn't have and the cheap (compared to GW retail) terrain and paints were the icing on the cake.

My only caveat regarding Mortal Realms is that it is only real value if someone does not already have and/ or want the models.

Personally I have my fingers crossed for Conquest Version 2 being released in a couple of years with Indomitus models included.

I found a massive stack at a newsagent and now I have find out what to do with 60 ghosts.
Looks like Ill be picking up the odd ghost model this time round.

It’s simple, you pick up more :p
I grabbed a stack when they started in the UK.
I then gave it a while for people to get their copies and then mopped up the ones left.

I’ll never need 300 chainwrasps, but just in case I do, they are there.

Jeez.... I thought buying three copies was excessive!

There was a letter in my delivery today saying the next set will have an (additionally charged) exclusive novella, similar to the 40k one.

At roughly what issue were people receiving the additional extras for Conquest? (Novella, Silver Templars codex/book thing, Paintset, etc) Because i'm upto issue 68 and I haven't seen hide nor hair of them.

I assume it could be that the optional buyins might not be available everywhere.

The Silver Templars source book came before 68 but I can't remember exactly.

The Novella and paint set were towards the very end of the run.

Hmm. Maybe an email to their customer support might clear things up.
Do you know how much extra any of them cost?

UK prices were an additional £9.99 for the novella and £35 for the Silver Templars paint set.

The paint set was the flip book paint guide, a set of transfers, the Lieutenant that was initially in the UM vs Eldar box and five multipart Intercessors rounded off with 12 paints.

I've just emailed Hachette UK to ask if the paint set will ever be made available again to former subscribers.

Has issue 27 been delayed, or have they gone back to 2 week gap?

Went in to local newsagent who gets a copy reserved for me and it wasnt in.

Checked the website and it says coming soon, however the new website doesnt have release date info on issues anymore?

Thats weird. I already got issue 28 with the Spirit Hosts in Spain.

27 seems to be an issue - both local newsagents didn't get it yet, nor have forbidden planet. One newsagent said he already emailed the man about not getting 26 yet and no one from hachette is replying or answering the phone .

Been tempted to pick up a few copies of an issue, but didn't feel it was considerate of others.

Grateful for the recent and forthcoming scenery. Got some odd models such as an evocator prime and prosecutor, so might use those in Warcry when I get round to it.

Shout out to fellow Stormcasts. Tigris of Gaul salutes you.

Picking up extra copies of what you want, especially if you advance order via Forbidden Planet or whoever, is fair game.

I've mentioned several times in this thread and the Conquest one that, for UK buyers, the opportunity is there for someone to get what they want. I've certainly never felt guilty about my three cheap Repulsors or the double/ triple issues I picked up for Primaris characters for my UM and Silver Templar armies.

Its more of a personal karma thing than anything moral. I'm certainly not passing judgement on others if they choose to do so. I would be going into personal growth territory by elaborating further.

Ive ended up with 10 of issue 1, there's been heaps at newsagents around me.

Issue 2 should be out now in Australia. Gonna grab 1 when I find it.

For what it's worth for Conquest the issues that had terrain in weren't particularly the ones that were hard to get, so people buying multiples can't have been that big big a problem or the print run was increased to compensate.

The tanks were the ones that sold out.

All understood. Now, those who buy purely for inflated price resales.....
