Well, new starter preorders up soon!  Space Wolves versus Orks.  Looks good, I guess...

thats kind of exciting. I have always admired the Space Wolves despite people saying they are dumb because they go riding into battle on big ass wolves.

According to the White Dwarf Dark Vengeance is being updated to include the 7th edition rules. So I'm not sure if this is a new starter set or just some sort of 2 army box set. Still if its not too expensive Ill split a box if it has some good Ork stuff in it.

Should the miserable Grot crews survive for long they will soon become deafened and have to resort to a rudimentary system of sign language. This is rarely successful as there are only so many signs a Grot can carry around with him.

A moment of silence for I and all my fellow Wolf players, as we mourn the best valued kit in all of 40k, and its inevitable repacking to be $40 for five guys.

Unfortunately, this IS a limited and "while supplies last."

They're $125.00

If you're interested in one please let me know ASAP.  I will be given my allocation tomorrow.  The product officially goes on sale July 19th (18th here).

It may be my distaste for the company influencing how I see things, but is this less of a value than the previous two starter kits?

Models retail for about $175, not counting the two new Characters.

Yes, but there are fewer models than dark vengeance and it cost more. But it does include the narrative mission book, so there's that. Also, only 19 Ork models? for a horde army that seems like a very low count. DV came with 20 cultists and other chaos stuff. Still worth it though, anytime rules come with models is a thumbs up for me.

I'll pay 20 bucks for the warboss if you get the box.
