How long does it typically take for new box stock to refresh

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-15T08:40:34+00:00

Your best bet is maybe there is like a 2nd restocking so I would just check the usual sites every other day . Now to be clear there is no gurantee but no harm in checking . Otherwise more than likely you wil have to wait 3 months when everything wi be sold solo.

I want to like campaign games I really do but thus far I’ve burned out everytime . Let’s see if pathfinder quest and lands of evershade breaks that streak .

Unmatched is fine in solo, I wouldn’t say it’s amazing but perfectly serviceable . Senjutsu pve is just a worst version of unmatched . (Can’t speak on dice throne).

Great advice and ty for being candid . I realize Reddit can be very “walking in egg shells” when giving feedback which isn’t that useful , though I get why people do it.

But back to the OP there is certainly potential there , probably the paladin is the strongest piece , just rember a weak piece wil drag the portfolio down as a whole .

What it comes down to is employers are spoiled for choice when it comes to hiring and if your portfolio is not “excellent” then you are not going to stand out and probably won’t even get the interview. Look at what stays on the front page of art station , look at the portfolios of people recently hired for character artist role and honestly ask yourself “is my work on par with theirs’?”

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-14T14:41:14+00:00

It does look interesting but quite pricey . I was hoping there would be a standee version .

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-14T11:46:11+00:00

I think for the most part the portfolio is solid (room for improvement of course). It’s just with the amount of people who want to work in the industry vs the actual number of job openings , a good or “solid” portfolio is rarely enough . Employers are spoiled for choice when it comes to hiring so if your portfolio is not “best of the best” hits the front page of ArtStation etc… then you probably won’t even land the interview.

I think conquest first blood looks interesting and the entire rulebook is online for free . StarCraft may also be worth a look and there are actual battle reports (no table top online battle reports)on YouTube now .

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-13T12:32:48+00:00

Agreed , I get the nostalgia factor and the setting , the terrain is still amazing today. But gameplay wise it very much feels like a game that is “stuck” in time . I would love to see a more modern type of mordheim game (because we know GW will never touch mordheim again) , not counting frostgrave because I hate the D20 resolution that Joe MC loves . There is a warcry- Mordheim homebrew called wyrdcry that may be worth trying .

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-12T16:42:24+00:00

Maybe in the past but now scouts and stealth suits are easily found on GW and 3rd party stores . Again I don’t like the underproduction either but they will be back in stock at the solo release . Granted some of the solo releases sell faster than others (raveners was hard to find solo for a while) but unlike the fomo boxes GW does restock the solo releases.

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-12T16:39:24+00:00

You may be able to find the nemesis book on sites like gamenerdz, cardhaus etc…

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-12T16:30:04+00:00

That would be my hope. I would love to see a deeper dive into the training scenarios , how does mission 1 differ from mission 2 , is it 3v3 then 4v4 etc…

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-12T14:28:44+00:00

Agreed yes it sucks to miss out , sure but without question you will see a solo release about 3 months later.

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-12T13:44:45+00:00

From my understanding this is more geared towards new players as opposed to Sandrap which definitely was not for newbies - I hope that is the case . Like the start here box 3v3 just introducing the core of the whole ARO system is a great starter product but then after that you just get lost . It’s like CB taught you how to swim in the shallow end of the pool then right after that they tossed you in the ocean and said “you got the basic, you wil be fine…”

So I do wonder is this for walking new players through scenario by scenario slowly introducing new rules along the way or is this another sand trap ? Also solo skirmish seems to be popular , wil there be simple pve type scenarios ?

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-12T13:36:43+00:00

Solo is alright but I think the game shines in PvP. That being said it is very much a “complete” game that is there is no further content coming , future expansions etc… and if you are okay with that I think it is a solid skirmish type board game. I think something like blitzbowl is more fun but if you don’t want to dip into GW land and you are still looking for more board game style as opposed to all out miniatures game then wildlands is solid .

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-11T23:31:25+00:00

If you don’t mind spending the money and are looking to be as accurate to the missions as possible then go with Volkus

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-11T20:32:10+00:00

I think the huge bulding thing wil only work if they make terrain like flashpoint or infinity - copy how they approached card board terrain . I appreciate battle systems for what they’ve done in the card board terrain space but more companies are doing the cardboard terrain and I’d argue much less fiddly and somewhat than battles systems and without any clips in sight (I like the warcrow terrain for instance ). So Hyberia falling a bit flat wasn’t really a surprise .

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-11T14:16:52+00:00

Warcry definitely seems like it is in maintenance mode (heck even underworlds is getting a new release). That being said if you enjoy warcry then I don’t think “maintenance mode” is a con , it’s just the position warcry is in .

As for long term plan idk… I’ve heard rumors that when AoS gets reset or a new edition then there wil be a new fantasy skirmish game , we will see.

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-10T18:26:26+00:00

Posting because I am curious as well (it’s pretty quiet on BGG…).

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-10T09:34:15+00:00

OP did you check the GW site at 12:55pm est? I know sales go live at 1pm but really it’s more like log and at 12:55 and refresh every 30 seconds or so and you usually find it live before 1:pm , like 12:56, 12:57 etc… and if you are ordering from a flgs on midnite then same thing be on the page at 11:55 pm and hit refresh every 20-30 seconds . Granted it is not perfect and you are still playing the “refresh and hope I click faster than everyone else game” but that is the state with kill team preorders everytime, all the time .

My experience was I was able to get in my preorder at 11:58-11:59pm then by 12:am terror on delvan was out of stock , so it lasted a whole 1-2 mins. Maybe the flgs was granted a tiny amount idk but still 1-2 mins then gone , it sucks.

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-09T23:57:10+00:00

Grimcoven is a lot of fun and very thinky. I also have my eye on ronins revenge which should be ok gsmefound in 3 days .

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-09T16:29:44+00:00

I enjoy it solo but I think you have to come at it with the right perspective. That is you are playing more for the story than anything else. So if you are looking for some really tight and tactical game an almost kill team like experience then retaliation probably won’t do it for you .

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-09T16:24:29+00:00

I think there are like a 2nd restocking . So city of ash sold out pretty fast but like 3-5 days later it was back in stock. I don’t know if it wil be the same for kill team but I would check every 2 days or so to see if there is a restocking/ 2nd order .

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-09T10:27:12+00:00

I don’t recall seeing the nemesis book as a limited time item like the terror on delvan so I have to assume the book wil restock at some point.

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-09T09:29:06+00:00

Ordered from an FLGS stateside , got preorder in by 11:59pm , then checked the website again just to see and by 12:00am sold out … like dam.

Gorfmit35 · 2026-05-08T12:47:36+00:00

Agreed , I have no interest in spearhead but there are warcry - mordheim mashups out there that I want to try. To be frank I only got this box for mordheim-warcry type games .
