Black Knight Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 There is a AdMech box in the line up with SO MANY bots. Also we finally have our tank release date as mentioned in another post. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2019/06/16/pre-order-preview-bring-on-the-apocalypse/ Prot and jeremy1391 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraken Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 That box is crap. Every AdMech already has too many Dominus and who the hell needs 3 Datasmith... Bruce Malcom, Lord Nord in Gravis Armour and Stray 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stray Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 That box is crap. Every AdMech already has too many Dominus and who the hell needs 3 Datasmith... I tend to agree. Unless there is an incredible discount on 6 Kastellans, it'll probably be less redundant to just pick them up normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Do remember that the datasmith are part of the robot sprue... If the savings are good I'm kinda tempted! Bruce Malcom 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magos Takatus Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 I don't think I can justify that many robots. I'd love to batch paint them for the ETL but I can feel the buyer's remorse before I even purchase them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kozz Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I'm already sitting on multiple Datasmiths.... has anyone found another purpose/conversion for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 It all depends on the Price... that's going to make or break the deal.. as much as i'd like another 6 robots..3 more data smiths it would have to be one hell of a saving to catch me Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burni Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I'm already sitting on multiple Datasmiths.... has anyone found another purpose/conversion for them? I think it’s popular to use an axe from one of those TPD’s you like have still in sprue, add hooded ranger head and you have an alt pose Enginseer. That’s what I’m doing also. If the discount of this box is just around the retail cost of the TPD, this box will be a terrible deal. Hopefully it will be a larger discount than that. Still not sure I’d want it though, but will definitely buy the Knight one along with some Skorpius’ MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magos Takatus Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Yeah, I'd probably try to use them for conversion fodder. Get rid of the punch cards, add more vials and liquid tanks from Dark Eldar models and you hopefully have a passable base for a Magos Genator. As Burni suggested, add an axe and you might have a good result. I'd like to try it but I'm all out of Datasmiths, I have a Dominus ready to donate parts but who doesn't these days?

Black Knight Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 (edited) I definitely agree with the Knight box but again I just got some Helverins, do I need another two :S Edited June 17, 2019 by Black_Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorNese Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Yeah...a shame the castellan and valiant are separate boxes. I just finished a castellan, so this box won't work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 Same with the Warglaives, I would actually prefer them to the Helverins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BolterZorro Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Man I wish it had been dragoons. This, so much this. Even Kataphron would have been super good deal. Robots have already been in the battleforce in last december Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraken Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Detachment boxes are rumored to e 130€ each. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QnJmcwSwaCE8pahF0-EbegiMeKBKfGLX/view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 Seems about right compared to last Christmas boxes. But OMG I :cuss myself when I heard of the price for the transport, which was actually the price of the Baneblade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 If that £100 is true then hot DAMN those robots are cheap. Saving of £66!? You basically get one pair of robots and the Dominus free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Man I wish it had been dragoons. This, so much this. Even Kataphron would have been super good deal. Robots have already been in the battleforce in last december Since the 8th ed codex dropped everyone I know has at least 4-6 of those Kastelans. GW know what they're doing. They're not going to give a discount on Dragoons. Even the Catellan Knight is something people aren't really hot on post FAQ. I think these boxes would be aimed at people who were thinking of starting an army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burni Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Happy about the price of the battalion boxes less so about the Skorpius. Was thinking of getting three but that plus the Knight box is too much so will have to wait on that. The cost of all that means I’ll be skipping buying the Apoc box. I wonder if it’s going to stick around or just while stocks last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 I have a £20 limit on buying Dragoons off ebay, I just brought my 3rd after a year... As always GW are £5 over what I would of gladly paid for the transport. One day maybe they will hit that mark and I will buy more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoldenThrone Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I have 8 Kastelans. Like Prot said, I need Dragoons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Focslain Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I'd prefer the knight box be a Preceptor (Canis Rex) and two armigars, warglaive or helverin doesn't matter. That I'd buy, this since I already have a castellan isn't of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
