If my count is correct, Island of Blood has 75 or so miniatures. While I'm not complaining about the box, I think it's a shame that the 100 miniature policy for the box games didn't make it into effect.

Regardless, I'll probably still own my copy of the game, just because I can...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1804741.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1804741.page GMT Island of Blood and a broken promise http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1804784.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1804784.page GMT Island of Blood and a broken promise
It all comes down to sprue space really. I don't think it's an attempt to screw the fans, more the opposite. I'd rather have 75 individual miniatures than 100 that are exactly the same. Remember 40K 2nd Edition?

Well, it's not so much that they said it'd have 100 minatures, but since most if not all of the previous boxed games did I assumed this one would also include 100.

And I'm not complaining really, I like the box, just kinda hoped it'd have 100 I guess.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1805315.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1805315.page GMT Island of Blood and a broken promise
This is just from memory, but even with the three cannon crew, that's not 100.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1805485.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1805485.page GMT Island of Blood and a broken promise

They are not brilliant but they ain't the worse figures by any means. Sadly for me just not as nice as the IoB ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1805812.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1805812.page GMT Island of Blood and a broken promise
The models seem fine. My only grudge is that they come with shields so making a blood bowl team out of it for skaven doesn't seem as feasible.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1806001.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1806001.page GMT Island of Blood and a broken promise http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1806034.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1806034.page GMT Island of Blood and a broken promise

Yes, it was.

And yet, I STILL want like 8 of the things to use in Apocalypse alongside a Greentide of Rogue Trader cut out ORK tokens.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1807103.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309249/1807103.page GMT Island of Blood and a broken promise
