Nothing in the starter needs one, however it’s likely that artillery will and various races have equivalents to that.
That's what I figure, it just seems odd they'd have every dice you'd need in the starter except that one, then you need to buy an entire separate dice set to get the 1 extra dice you need.

Were the foot knoghts not part of this week's release? Haven't seen them showing up for order

Iirc they gave us base sizes for nightgoblins on fb, so unless there's an orcs and goblins legacy unit pdf that we weren't told about I expect them to show up

The foot knights were called out in their article as not coming this week but coming soon. They were in the price lists weirdly but yeah not this week.

Weird that the dice were not discounted from them. Travelling Man still have most dice in stock at the time of writing and even with shipping is less than Wayland or GW at full RRP.
I didn't realise the cards were direct only. That's the only reason I'm sat in GW's stupid queue yet. I've been in it since it opened at twenty to ten ish - still estimating I'll get in at 10:47.
What a joke. God help us when something like The End and the Death volume 3 ships.
That will be the last BL book I bother to order. Been sick of the way they deal with new released for a long time now and spending an hour in a virtual queue for books once ever few months is still more time than I'm willing. I was too far into collecting the SoT series at the point it got to much.

I was worried about this, but its been confirmed now that night goblins are there!
Went to the GW site at 9:35. Put in a queue for the queue.
When the queue went live, my time was over an hour. I just got on the store at 11:05am.
Rulebook sold out.
So now a 3 month plus wait for a reprint from China?
Awesome work at p155ing off your customers again GW.
Currently most played: Silent Death, Mars Code Aurora, Battletech, Warcrow and Infinity.

Far from ideal buy I'm sure that ebay will be awash with them in a fortnight. Also if you have a local Warhammer/GW store they almost always have stock held over to send to their stores. Should you have to do this? Of course not. But if you want the physical book without the inevitable wait for restock then this may be your best bet.

Do you mean actual pictures of Night Goblin minis are in the book?
There is artwork and rules for night goblins in ravening hordes. No idea if anything is in colour sections of the mainrule book. But they won't have added rules for anything they don't intend to sell.
Whelp without too much panic grabbed the Brets boxed set of Firestorm Games and the Forces of good book off Wayland.
Can't justify GW's price on dice and I'm not spending near £100 on cards on the GW website. Cards are neat; they are good reference but darn if GW aren't insane with the price on them once you add it up.
I'll likely grab the Brets expansion book at some stage, but I think that's enough to keep me busy.

Yeah, it'd be odd to include rules and artwork, but not show models because those are staying in AoS.
Thanks!

TableTopTime commented they only got it 2 days before release, but they are in Australia so maybe they got it later than folks in other countries.
