Teclis 130 euro, infantry 45, eltharion 33. Now i really don't care which week rest comes. Can't afford more before october anyway :lol:

Well infantry about what i expected. Teclis i wasn't so sure as not that familiar with big models and their prices

Source? That's Dominus Knight pricing. I know the new Teclis is big, but. . . wow. Feels like they are pricing this based on his in-game points more than the model (yes I know they do this anyway).

Flgs order sheet. Stores get prices on mondays so usually somewhere prices get leaked. Spotted one on　lumineth group.

And yes pricy. Of course if dominus would be　released now it would be even more expeksive. Gw raises sku prices steadily as they get released. Eventually 10 inf model releae will be 50.

Weird that no price for the Cathallar.

Not bothered too badly on the price for Teclis. He's a beefy model given the shots in the army book.

Cathallar 27e. Whatever that's in dollars.

Are you SURE it's 27E?

Because that's a whole new price bracket it looks like otherwise...

I'm gonna ballpark it at $35 though. That's about where we're falling, bracket-wise.

Teclis is... 650 points? Don't have the battletome on me atm. At any rate he is a third of the army and overpowered to boot. The reality is that in-game points does impact the 'purchasibility' of the miniature, and having him be such a big chunk of the army on his own will make that price tag easier to stomach. I still think it is more than a bit high.

$60 Wardens is a shame, I was hoping for 50. Not terrible though IMO; if an individual miniature of that design and quality was sold for $6 no one would have an issue. They are really nice figures.

660pts on Teclis. Only 10 points off.

If the Alarith Spirits of the Mountain are $160? Then I'll have a problem. I just don't see an issue on Teclis being that.

Just saw pound price. 18.5.

Alarielle pricing would have been fair I think, almost 20% more is greedy.

Alarielle would cost more if released now.

Never assume model cost same as comparable model before. Just hope old models don't get reboxed(=new sku, meaning price hike　likely)

Yeah I'm definitely aware of GW's pricing taking into account the in-army value. They are pricing Lumineth as a low unit elite army, which to be fair they are. If they didn't jack the real world prices of these units up, people would be able to build whole armies of Lumineth for $300-$400, and we can't have that, now, can we?

So around $35 then. There's some weirdness with that bracket in all regions so it makes sense.

Even better it seems. 35$ if you are talking about canadians. US gets it for 30$

Huh. I'll never get that price bracket right!

Teclis is $5 over, she's $5 under. Everything else worked out more or less the same.

$35 for the dice?! That's a joke, right?

That's gw.

Oof, compared to the recent Bonereapers, these dudes are pricey as hell

When you compare the models the lumineth are larger and far far more detailed and intricate.

I love them, so I’ll still be 100% getting them. It’ll just hurt my wallet bad haha.

According to the excel seen on reddit/4chin cathallar is around 22 euro. No idea how much it's in covidbucks.

Either way, Teclis is firmly in the "in your dreams" category, Infantry is up there with DoK Witch Elves. GIven how polarizing the other half of the army (cowheads) have been, its going to be a hard sell with this army.

I really like the look of those dice. I want to get them but I’m not sure how feasible it is to hold enough in your hand at once. Rolling should be fine though. Anyone got any sort of experience rolling a bunch of barrel dice at once?

They roll fine in limited numbers but the quantity needed for an AoS game wouldn't be very feasible.

I'd love to have 3-5 for key rolls (spells, priority, hero attacks) though. Very cool.

Yep that makes sense, I might do the same.

Pleasantly surprised by the tactics article today--pretty much all of it is both correct and relevant. The exception is the first point; while some (very) niche situations may call for the single or dual cast, most games one should only ever use the quad cast option. The other point is more of a nitpick; while on his warscroll and not something one 'takes' per say, the Protection of Teclis spell IS one you want to be casting every turn bar the occasional context that doesn't call for it.

But everything else in the article is good advice and this will definitely be something I reccomend to people seeking advice on Teclis use.

Also it overrates assault of stone which is niche spell and didn't mention prime combo. Spell portal and searing light

Pre-Orders are up on the Kiwiland and Oz websites.

I like the Spearmen and the Archers. The spears are very long. I remain impressed with Eltharion as a model - creating a workable miniature that is an empty suit of armour couldn't've been easy.

Still can't get behind Teclis and his Kingdom Death reject mount.

Just ordered a box of archers, dice and endless spells myself. I’m sure I’ll have instant regret with the dice but they look cool so whatevs.

Well seeing they are pikes(even says so in warscroll) makes sense they are long.

Told flgs to reserve teclis, 3 sentinels, endless spells and cards. With existing models enough to play 2k games

Those archers, the arrow would fell off if they put it on that side and tilt the bow like that.

Lance bucket and ballet research but still no basic archery knowledge, even the finger draw technique is the inferior one and usually associated with self taught archery.

Which draw technique? The figures appear to show two different types - some have one finger on the string either side of the arrow, another showing the arrow held between thumb and index finger with no fingers on the string itself.
Can't say I'm too worried about that or the endless debate over having the arrow rest on the thumb or a groove on the right side of the bow though, given the context of the impossible triple-stringed bow (well, impossible if the string isn't an elastic band). Was wondering if they'd look better once I got used to them, but.. turns out no. Spearelves look pretty ace though. Will look excellent as a dense formation (probably better on smaller bases than those supplied).

£36.50 for their basic infantry, so presumably it's going to be a rise across the board going forward for standard grunts. That's even more than Vulkites and pretty weird when 20 Motek Guard cost £1.50 less and I'm not sure we can blame static poses for it.

£105 for the big T? It's pushing it too far for me. breaking £100 on a single plastic model... nope.

What in god's green earth are those sorry excuses for dice??!!! And they're 22 quid!! Insane.

Teclis at 105 is also absolutely ridiculous. He does not deserve to be more than ARCHAON. Granted he's really cool, but that pose is kind of janky. Hopefully we see some cool conversions asap.

They're really really inflating costs for these guys. 25 pounds is a lot yet they have to stretch the character to 26.50. and nearly 40 for a box of TEN GUYS?!
