![]() Wouldn't mind it but waiting so long after a battle-set release is plain annoying. TBD wrote: Just like with the recent new Dark Eldar mini's, GW doesn't seem to understand that if the choice is to either buy a whole expensive box of stuff I don't want only to get a new Magister on Disc or buy nothing instead the choice will be the latter and they are not getting any money from me. So are we looking at Seraphon in February and Aelves in March, or are we hitting a slow 2-3 month cycle for armies and more like Aelves in March and Seraphon in May? ![]() I would absolutely buy another Helfort if they re-released it. I only bought a single Helfort, a single Overlord Bastion, plus an extra set of ruined walls, when the Dreadhold was in production. Hell the Overlord Bastion ($130) is already pretty dang massive and a table centerpiece. The old Fortress might have been a hundred bucks, but the Chaos Helfort ($260) is a freakin' massive beast. That being said the Chaos Dreadhold stuff puts it to shame. Those were awesome kits and the best value for a generic castle ever. Yeah, I have two full sets of the plastic Warhammer Fortress along with, I think, two sets each of Siege Attackers and Defenders, plus three Siege towers. My Mighty Fortress (plastic, not the foam one) sees lots of tabletop service even now. I shudder to think what GW would charge now for that castle kit, even if they didn't change a single thing.Īlso, all the siege stuff, towers, rams, ladders, odds and bobs for defenders (boiling oil cauldrons) were great fun in siege games. How much was that chaos fortress again? Yeah, there is no way I'm spending that much on a castle when there are nicer historical options out there that would work well for old world gaming ( AoS is creeping larger scale wise, so less useful). 1 Gatehouse, 4 Towers, 3 Wall Sections: $99 USD. I still have mine, and wished I had picked up a second set when GW was still selling them. Every faction division cuts sales down for a product that's already pretty niche. The towers were even theoretically usable, but it was easier just take models off the table.įaction specific though. It was actually a pretty nice kit, especially for the time. Didn't realize it was gone from the site actually, my FLGS has one of the big boxes of it still sitting on the shelf. I can at least see them rereleasing the Chaos Fortress stuff. ![]() Id love to see the old battle fortress comeback in some way.įaction specific rams, ladders and towers would be fun too. Still I'd rather hope and look forward to possible new siege stuff! It wouldn't surprise me, for a single company with one HQ, GW is known to be very compartmentalised in how they are structured (I think its a backlash from the Kirby era and I hope it starts to change). Now we've an expansion with siege when many armies don't have ANY war engines to speak of and when there isn't even any walls save for the Rohan stuff.īoth suggest to me a side-team that isn't part of the core team, or at least isn't read into their long term plans as they come up with their own. I recall that their last expansion book added mercenaries, then only a few weeks later main GW took the dwarf artillery models off sale (which were one of the core mercenary forces). I'm starting to wonder a little if the expansion books for AoS are being made by a side team.
