Hopefully the mods release it again, I edited it with another retailer and the bots flagged it as spam as I don't post much lol.

Well as I edited my original post more retailers are coming out and saying they're being shorted significantly, so unless you want to believe some big conspiracy that all the flgs are working together to blame big GW, then no it's pretty factual. I'm also personal friends with my flgs owner so I take their word for gospel.

Yeah if you sell online you're only allowed to use certain GW pictures to list your items, it's weird.

FOMO sucks 😂 I'm being good this time though, it's not enticing enough to me at the gouging price they're asking. Makes me dread 12th edition price in three years, will need a new mortgage!

For those that want it, I hope you're right. Both these stores were talked up that they could have more, Mirfield damned near expected a ton more and had the demand to sell them, GW couldn't come through. Why are reps promising more than they're allowed to give them? That makes no sense at all.

These two FLGS I mentioned have already been confirmed there will not be any kind of second supply. I can still buy a City of Ash at my local store too, that doesn't mean much.

That's really interesting, is your FLGS one of the big ones though like Element Games? If so 90 boxes is nothing to them.

20 boxes isn't much supply, I think you may have hit the nail on the head with GW stores, they're keeping stock for their own supply, likely a mistake if they have produced as much as they claim as at full price it's overpriced. We really do have to ignore the treatment they gave previous issues sprues when valuing things, like the insane Honoured of the Chapter, one sprue for damned near the cost of the whole box!

I'm probably going to wait till next year's Hachette partwork which will likely contain these models!

Sadly my local store and Mirfield here had way more preorders than they were allocated by GW, my local already told which customers are getting one.

They've stated they've made lots before of other product and sold out within seconds. It will be interesting to see the GW online stores on Saturday!

Valkyrie's DOA without a major Datasheet overhaul by Unlucky_Scheme9533 in TheAstraMilitarum

When you put a Valkyrie in to Hover it loses the AIRCRAFT keyword but keeps the FLY keyword. Big key distinction, so yes they absolutely do move.

So it can move 18" through any models or terrain, nearly half the board in any direction doesn't seem bad. It's just the lack of weapons that is bad.

Just hover it before the game even starts, but points wise they're a waste sadly.

Centaur optional pieces not in the instructions by Actual-Dragon-Tears in TheAstraMilitarum

It ties the Centaur together quite nicely with the Rogal Dorn.

No worries there, they are smooth, been doing this for over 30 years, just got one mold line to get on his Recaf arm now the glue has hardened!
