:skull::ghost::zombie:

It is time my friends, time to sacrifice your wallets to summon up the undead hordes!

...Ahem. Sorry.

Just what I needed, and have been ordered it as a gift. Hopefully it will help round out some other armies.

I broke down the savings in Pounds for other UK buyers.

£37.50 - Coven Throne/Mortis Engine
£36.00 - Dragon/Terrorghiest

£20.50 - zombies
£15.50 - 10 skeles
£15.50 - 10 skeles
£15.50 - 10 ghouls

£29.00 - 3 Vargheists/Crypt Horrors
£18.00 - Corpse Cart
£20.00 - 5 Black Knights/Hexwraiths

£9.00 - Necromancer

= £236

- 150 (Megaforce price)

= £86 savings

This info couldn't have been added to an existing thread discussing the very same topic?

 

[Alixen]

Sure, except the other was just discussing it, and I thought the thread title was relevent to people actually seeing it was CURRENTY avalable. As I said n your thread, I apreciate you bringing its existance to my and others attention, but the title doesn't scream 'out now'. I have no idea how long it will be avalable, and wanted to make sure fellower forum goers don't miss it. Is the forum really so busy and fast moving that the topic warrents a rebuke? Seriously?

If there is a thread announcing its actually out, then apologies, I missed it.

 

[Johnny-Crass]

No this thread is perfectly legit.

And I might pick one up.... Do I really need three terrorghiest?:slapface:

 

[Alixen]

Glad to hear it.

You can never have too many Terrorghiests. Will actually be my first one.

ghoul king on terrorghiest with scabscrath

2 rare terrorghiests. yes. yes you do need three.

 

[Nagashizzar]

Beware: According to the video, the Terrorghiest parts are NOT included!

Video is found here: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/wnt/blog.jsp?pid=5600036

Product description says "Many of the kits are compatible with each other, giving you the option to swap components".. I think they all do except for the Zombie Dragon kit!

 

[robtion]

Terrorgheist parts not included??? Really? o_o

If that is the case then this deal went from pretty descent to not so great. For me the spare parts and left overs are an important part of the kits for conversions etc. probably for the best I have too many miniatures to paint already.

Thanks for the heads up Alixen

 

[Vipoid]

According to GW, the Terrorghiest parts *are* included.

I emailed them earlier today, and just got the following response:

"Thanks for the email, the set comes with the parts to make either the Crypt Horrors or Vargoyles, Covent Throne or Mortis Engine and Zombie Dragon or Terrorghiest."

 

[Johnny-Crass]

Would be hard not to considering they are on the same sprue. Same with the mortis engine and crypt horrors.

I would start empire if I could swap the griffon and great swords for demigryphs

 

[Bishop]

I'd be willing to relieve you of any excess Terrorgheists

 

[Loran]

Got one ordered, now only need to get some more Zombies and I'm good to go for those larger games

And maybe get that third Terrorgheist after the one in this set is assembled :tongue:

[Hansol]

Just orded my also , with all of this will have a massive nice core, rest i dont have yet instant buy

 

[Lynks]

my real problem is I think 3 corpse carts are enough

Thanks for the clarification!

 

[robtion]

Oh great! Thought it sounded weird that they wouldn't be included.

 

[Johnny-Crass]

Corpse Carts make great orc or beastmen chariots.... That is what I did with mine

 

[robtion]

So not trying to be overly negative but as some of you may know GW seems to have something against us over here in Australia o.o While the army box is $250 in the US it is $395 in Aus :| This deal has gone back to being not so great for me again

 

[tinfish]

IF the Gheist is a full Dragon kit and the Throne can be made into a Mortis Engine, I could use 100% of this. Might take some saving, but it would be a good purchase.

Edit... I learned to read before posting
Wonder if any Discount stores will sell this, off to look..

 

[Seneschal]

Yeah, I feel for the Australian players. It would be great if GW allowed us to make our own bundles but alas...

As for me, personally, I'm going to pass on the whole thing. It's not the assortment I really need.

 

[Matt217th]

Ohhhh this looks too good for me to pass up. Need a terrorghiest and mortis engine! I dont have any hex wraiths or black knights yet and varghiests were on my list to get too.

As for the extra CC, might try to convert it into a coven throne. A tad ambitious granted, since i've only so far converted 6 Ogres into Crypt Horrors, but should be a real challenge.

 

[eggsPR]

This kit is a great deal for beginner VC players.

Corpse Carts make GREAT zombie unit fillers and actually makes them look like they'd kill stuff!

I just ordered the Forgeworld Mourgul for my TG #3 (TG #2 is my cute 4th edition rebased zombie dragon, though he's going to be 3rd string once the MG is painted)

 

[Kung Fu Hamster]

Mine came in a couple days ago and I've been on a building spree these last few days with this and what's left to build from my VC battalion I picked up earlier this month.

HOLY MOULD LINES BATMAN!

The VC army sprues have ridiculous mould lines and a hell of a lot more flash than I've seen outside of Finecast! *angry fist shake*

Still a good deal; just be ready for Mould-Line-Cleaning-apalloza.

 

[Nagashizzar]

For those who wanted one its too late, it's sold out according to the GW newsletter!

 

[The Sun King]

Also the CC is quite good as a Zombie unit filler.
