Combat Patrol: Necrons

 The new combat patrol format of entry level products for Warhammer 40,000 has given us some interesting choices so far in how to construct an army for new players. The Necrons are on the march with a brand new combat patrol. Stirring from their ancient tomb worlds, the Machines have risen to reclaim the galaxy that slipped away from them during their long slumber. Let’s take a closer look at what’s in the box.

Warhammer Holiday Bundles (updated 2nd time)

 Warhammer Holiday Bundles

Updates (By Popular demand, we're going to put in the UK prices for the separate kits.  We don't have the bundle pricing details from last year for you, but we can put in the current UK prices.  When we find out the retail prices for the bundles, we'll be putting those up for comparison as well.)

Update 2 (Our predictions of around 200$ seemed to be pretty spot on, didn't it?)

Hey, we’re going to be breaking down the holiday bundles this year from Games Workshop.  Now we’re going to take a special interest in the Space Marine and Necron bundles and how they relate to the folks who picked up Indomitus or one of the new combat patrols and see if we can find a point breakdown to what you can put on the field with your brand new toys.  Now a reminder that none of these toys pass the Christmas morning test.  Once you’ve gotten the kit you still need to get them out of the box, cut them free and put them together.  

Warhammer 40,000 (decisions decisions)

So the wonderworkers at Games Workshop are at it again. I have an on again, off again relationship with their games, and at this point in my life i’m more of a modeller (a bad one) and a painter (okay one) than i am a serious gamer. I played a half dozen games of 7th edition, and i have to admit, i haven’t gotten in a single game of 8th edition yet. This means a couple of different things for me. First, i have seen the shiny new models and really haven’t been that tempted. I have several armies already in progress, and though i would like to pick up a Magnus and some supersized Lords of Change at some point for my Tzeentch Daemons, they aren’t essential.
