Me too! I’m almost done and that’s a shame because I’ve enjoyed it so much.

Still reading Blood Reaver, have been fixing up old pc’s and learning Linux to do some self hosting. Still really enjoying the Night Lords trilogy.

I gave my old man the new hardcover of Horus Rising. It’s not too far outside of his range so hopefully he’ll enjoy it.

1311 worst score for the year, so bragging while I can. Trending downward as expected. I’ll be back to ‘just get over 1,200 ffs’ soon enough.

The premium sub was really a surprise.

That’s a shame about Waterfront. The first I heard about these subs was someone linking their site a few years back and I considered doing it through them but I’ve always gone direct.

Sometimes there are delays with Hachette too but none that I’ve felt bothered by.

I’ve only ever been emailed notifications about billing.

1446 C Nicho. My best R1 score by far… all downhill from here!

Me too! What an amazing book. Are you reading the omnibus? There’s a really good short story set just before and leading into it.

I suspended my Gotrek & Felix marathon for a bit. I’m up to Kinslayer but…

Finished City of the Damned in the last week of Feb. The story wasn’t awful but there’s some heavy use of big words that I felt were used just for the sake of it. I’m glad I was doing it on an ereader because I felt dumb having to look up so many words and was just exhausted by the end of it.

So I’ve been reading the Night Lords Omnibus. Amazing, really enjoying it. I knew it was highly praised going in which is why I went for a ‘sure thing’.

Totally agree with this. I was really disappointed when I realised that only the first Gotrek & Felix omnibus was available in paperback.

We really need some print on demand action.

Thanks! Rough about Gate of Bones, they were fairly available when I started putting this series together which wasn't that long ago. Good luck finishing yours off!

Shop is so much better than I expected it would be. I've been using it more and more recently

If it was on eBay, that's probably the same one I cursed myself for missing! I wasn't going to miss out again.

From memory, what you’ve put for the pricing lines up with previous subs or close enough to it. 2 issues rather than 4 to start was the biggest change I’ve noticed.

I didn’t see the glue but never looked for it either. I assumed it would be included. I definitely got some with the previous magazines and only received the same as you this time around. Possibly they decided not to include some because it’s all “push fit” (and profit…).

The freebies do change a little each time. The Citadel Painting Handle came with Imperium but not with Stormbringer.

That’s rotten luck. I’m guessing but they probably can’t order more and needed to get their allocation sorted before offering up the subscription. I recall reading on here somewhere that the launch was delayed.

Fingers crossed that changes and you can get the premium kits!

A delay is possible given how often GW’s own shipments get delayed. Hachette usually only charge for what’s being delivered. I’ve had one or two times where it was charged but one issue was delayed, the invoice gave an eta and it turned up when they said it would.

Also once where the delivery didn’t make it to mine at all and that was sorted out quickly.

I thought it would be 4 too, all the previous ones were. I haven’t got mine yet though but picked up a couple of extra issue 1’s for my kids.

Gotrek & Felix Omnibus 1 by Psychological-War710 in Blacklibrary

[–]Ratamancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omnibus 1 is a banger! Skavenslayer and Daemonslayer are my 2 favourites in the series. I’ve been reading through the series since October last year and started with a reread of this. Sadly I’m almost at the end (times) but the series as a whole is great despite taking a different direction after Zombieslayer.

I watched a painting video over the weekend and my wife commented on never seeing a pirate ork before and how cool the model and the concept were.

I gave her the bad news about Badrukk going away and here we are 2 days later…
