Yep. They didn't put dice or measuring sticks in it.
And could add references like 'See Codex Necrons' for RP, rather than giving full rules.

Well, that's at least 2 people I can put on IGNORE for ignorant statements.

Feel free to elucidate the other differences between Indomitus and Dark Millennium.

People paying those eBay prices have an addiction problem.

I imagine that for at least some of them, the money is nothing. Like they can pay 10x the cost and not care. Of course, there will also be the ones spending everything they have.

If money isn't an issue when massively over paying for something that is made up of parts we will see probably before the end of the year in another form I still would put that in the ballpark of addiction.

I'm stunned that I actually managed to get a copy!

It popped up on the US website about 13:20 eastern time, I bought a copy and recieved confirmation. Then by the time I get back to the store page, it was sold out. In other words it was availablefor what, five minutes?

It was a little earlier and a little longer (but not terribly much). The first 'its up' posts are about 1:13, and in my case I took the time to add it to my cart and try (and fail) to check out first. It was gone about 1:25.

I managed to get an email with a order number, but it doesnt even appear in my order history. Hopefully it actually went through haha

Spin it how you want, it's bs either way.
It's a Launch Product for 9th Edition.
Call it a Stater, Your Mother, a Veteran Set..... it's a new edition launch box.

does not matter, GW calls it Veteran Box, meaning it is not the main launch product for 9th but a gift to veteran players


GW's 9th edition launch products are the "Matched Play Essentials", "Narritive Play Essentilas" and "Open Play Essentials" and the stand alone Rulebook
as 2 player starter, GW still sells the old ones

Got mine :3

If it isn't listed in the email (and isn't part of the total), it did not.

It's not an issue if the price is fair to you. Some people have stupid money. If you are very highly paid, why would you care if it is $100 or $1000? It is basically a fee for you not having to worry about all the ordering nonsense. I'm not saying it will be common, just that there will be people who do that.

No luck for me. Just had to buy the rule book and chapter approved. I’ll just skip indomitus and wait for individual kits

Yea, First Strike is a great starter..... lmao, you 2... gfy

if you disagree with GW, write them an email or on facebook
they say First Strike and Know no Fear are still great starters for 9th, and CA2020+RB+new Card Boards is the way to start into 9th

I don't care as I never buy gaming products on launch day or for pre-order (neither physical nor digital)

It’s only just occurred to me, but I haven’t seen any mention of a digital edition of the new rule book.

I'd assume that's on purpose. A digital rulebook gets in the way of the App, and they're going to want to really push that.
Well, presumably. Wasn't it supposed to launch today (barring the army builder)?

Maybe they read any of the feedback?

Just sent my FLGS owner a message on Facebook to swap me over to just the core rulebook if he gets shorted.

Kins of wish GW would just say how many sets they're making for stuff like this.

I was thinking that too, I don't like buying dead tree versions so I was hoping to get just the electronic versions. If it's only through the app, that'll be disappointing, but have to change with that times I guess.

When a company releases little miniatures, any company, and says limited... its when I turn away because I really do not like the bait.
In GW case its even worse because cannot be bothered with the stress levels you guys go through just to order a box.

If a box of minis is making you so upset then just don't. Theres so many people online venting that wow, good job GW.

This is GW at is best its nothing new the lack of stock for the demand, so why fall for it every time?

What, you don't mean they'll find a carton in the warehouse on Wednesday, or promise to make more if you give them the money now,™?

Not GW!

Well that went fast.. I preordered at my FLGS but they have to confirm they will be able to get it, guess I won't know till monday. I didn't think it was gonna be such a limited thing, I thought it was gonna be around a while. Oh well. I'm sure they'll be announcing regular starter sets with the new minis soon.

It's not a surprise though really, they've been oop a fair while now. We know there's some hints of a possible plastic army as well following blackstone etc

R&H?

Think on the bright side-this means they are being delivered into legends and might not being touched for the point increases from their current prices

Anyone who is dumb enough to give ebay scalpers money when clearly charging a higher price are just as bad as the scalpers themselves. F that system. Do not support it. Stop buying and they will eventually stop doing it. But of course people dont think that way and will buy it anyway cause they are not very intelligent people.

Renegades and Heretics I believe.

Legends are perfectly valid rules.

Most of their units were already overpriced compared to their equivalents in other factions. No strategems, no warlord traits. This is sad when what we had with IA 13 is considered. There was no reason to move R&H OOP, other than to free up resources for MORE PRIMARIS.

CotW are the Forgeworld demons
Corsairs were not a thing for the entirety of 8th, besides one datasheet.
