Warhammer Age of Sigmar SKAVENTIDE unboxing and review!

[@WightPirate]

Would love to see you lads doing a battle report with the box set.

Once we get our heads round how to play the game, we will definitely think about it! We want to get some batreps on the channel but we want to make sure we can do them right! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Just putting together my box as I watch this. There is a separate spearhead starter set with board, terrain and cards but it doesn’t contain the book. Assuming rules are available online?! Liked and subbed

More recently I got dice in hivestorm

[@tantrumsandtabletops]

It seems to be some starter / launch sets do and others don't then.... a bit strange! How are you finding Hivestorm? None of us have picked it up yet but it looks like a great set! Thanks for watching and commenting Ben

@@tantrumsandtabletops it’s great but it was my first huge box set so I’m overwhelmed

Nice breakdown on the box. It's a shame it doesn't appear to be selling well, similarly to Dominion. Last I checkt my usual online store they had more than 180 boxes in Stock. Apparently. My biggest gripe with it, personally, is the actual box itself though. It's the same thin cardboard that Soul Wars had. I really wish it had the proper, hard card box like Dominion and Leviathan had. On the issue of push-fit. After close to 20years of eyeing 40k, and never getting into it from being intimidated by the glueing part, I was really fortunate to come across the Recruit Edition of 40k a couple years back. But now after a bit more experience, I do agree that they have become a negative for me. Mostly because I don't want to chop up my Stormcast just to convert them to Space Marines. It'd be much nicer to be able to just pop on some SM arms and shoulder pads...

I always hate how having something actually available to buy is considered selling badly. God forbid stock is actually around for people outside the first 15 minutes.

[@tantrumsandtabletops]

I think its a double edged thing... a FLGS we know only sold their last box of dominion recently, and we've all heard that the set didn't sell as well as hoped... But for a store to have 180 copies available 1 day after release, is that because they ordered a lot more, or are people perhaps being a little cautious with money? Generally we're midway between paydays, in the UK the school holidays are almost here and people in general are trying to make their money stretch... it might be that there's a sudden rush once the kids break up as people want a summer project Like I said in the video, I'm not as clued up on AOS as I am on 40k, but it always seems that 40k gets the lions share of publicity and "push" but also, has the old world release filled a void for people who would have bought this otherwise? Where we are from, I think any of our independent retailers ordering 180+ copies, they would still have stock when 5th edition launches. Hopefully the box sells well and more and more people discover the hobby. Let's be honest, for all we sometimes like to moan about GW, this is the best hobby in the world and more people should find that out! Thank you both for watching and commenting! Ben

[@ralfsstuff]

@@elphiefanful I'm not saying many boxes being available is a bad thing in itself. My fear with it is that it may give GW reason to produce less boxes with future releases. And it really does appear to not sell well, compared to, for example, 40k Battleforces that are sold out in an instant.

£125 ebay thats with delivery just got my own lol

[@tantrumsandtabletops]

Nice! It's a great set, hope you enjoy it when it arrives! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@larsrolfon7316]

I'm rather disappointed in the new set, after opening it and taking everything out it felt....well kind of empty for the price, I don't know it feels like there should have been a little bit more that could have justified the price gouging their doing, I mean it didn't even have the Spearhead cards for both sides and the quick reference guides would have been nice. It seems like a rip off

[@tantrumsandtabletops]

One of the things we noticed and discussed after was the lack of a quick reference sheet or two for the rules in there. They were so useful in the previous sets we've bought. Regarding the spearhead cards for each side, that's also a big oversight... I will admit I've been tied up with family things since we filmed the video and haven't had a chance to go back over everything thoroughly. But that definitely should have been included. Thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment, it's really appreciated!
