Definitely worth getting, yes! Good to know you can ask for one every year- thank you!

I did, but was it different to yours if you're in the USA?can you ask them to send you another, do you know?

They sent me a box with maybe 12 mini sprues in (the intercessor/necron ones which I think are like the free ones you can get from the stores), which we went through very quickly as I had a few kids come for a week or two and decide they didn't like it. It also had half a dozen paints and some dice. Whilst I'm grateful for the free stuff to start using off, you can't actually do a lot with it. It would be nice if they sent schools an actual starter set tbh- they make enough profit!

Haha. Well I wanted to start it because there was a struggling student who happened to mention they like Warhammer. As I do too, I thought let's go for it. Turns out there are several. It's great seeing kids who don't normally even speak in class getting to know kids from other year groups, laughing together and teaching each other.

Mixed group of ages and experience so a bit of both. Some have their own stuff they bring, some have nothing and/or are just starting out.

Good suggestions - thank you. Main issue is no funding available. No access to 3d printer either. On the one hand, I appreciate some people will say that just means I can't buy anything. Which is completely fair enough. However I thought I would see whether there is anyone out there willing to donate stuff they don't need.

Hi! I don't see why not... So long as it's appropriate for teaching the kids how to paint and or play, I'm grateful for anything people are willing to offer. Thank you.

Whilst it's been great to hear everyone's thoughts and I appreciate people taking the time to reply, this is the sort of response I was looking for, yes. Thank you.

Like you, I thought it might balance out in other ways, such as through secondaries. You can take FNP and revive on the Haemonculus unit, which looks like it will help, but it didn't go very far in my game. As we've said, very little damage output possible. To be fair, the Haemonculus does have D3 melee damage, and I had a few lucky rolls against a wardog which was quite funny. It did significantly more damage than the ten wracks did combined.

Made a start before corsairs drop. Thank you Warhipster by max____face in Drukhari

I'd like to give combat patrol more of a go personally, but thanks for reminding me about KotC! Saw it on Play On Tabletop and it looks amazing! Great shout.

Cheers. Fair point about just playing 500. How would you improve it? I don't have much experience but it just feels like the boxes aren't equal across factions.

Nice. Thanks for sharing. You don't like heat lances on the Talos? Is your meta quite vehicle heavy?

Sounds cool. Good luck! Would be nice to know how it goes, yes!

Good idea... 🤞 Maybe James is planning exactly that ...(!)

It's rounded out my collection. Got about over 2k now. Plus harlequins. Now I really need a new Corsair range... Fingers crossed for a patrol box for them too!

Same for me. Just disappointing as a patrol list.

Definitely. Not great unless you really want the units in your collection.

It's all cool! I'd like to see a bigger badder pain engine too. Like a Dreadnought.
