    New Seraphim battleforce box:

    https://i.redd.it/6lf3s09mdaw11.jpg

    2 Ripperdactyls/Terradons kits
    1 Skinks kit
    1 Carnosaur / Troglodon kit
    1 Bastiladon kit
    1 Starpriest kit

    This looks like a crazy good value

    It would depend on the price point. The photo shows 23000 Yen. So if it is a direct price conversion it would about $230 USD. That would be $100 USD discount.

    It isn't even suppose to be shown yet. This is the store mailer catalogue for retailers.

    It will likely be officially revealed this month and then available for sale in December.

    Japan gets the Australia treatment from GW, so direct price conversions don't work that accurately.

    I would assume the Battleforce boxes are the same price as previous years so about $170 which is a steal, and £100 which is an even greater steal.

    Is you name a reference to Miniwargaming Steve's Watchers in Death?

    Haha, no, it's a King of the Hill reference.

    Dale Gribble keeps sand in his pockets to throw in people's faces and escape. I imagine that's where Steve got it though

    Wonder if it will come with an official Battalion war scroll we can use. its looks like a mash up of the thunderquake and shadow strike.

    They might come with a battalion but likely not one with matched play points unfortunately.

    GW likely is giving almost enough of each battalion to encourage the purchase of the other needed parts

    As already said, as much as i like to have nice deals for Seraphon (to increase our players), it's kinda sad that this enocourages even more the use of Shadowstrike battalion.
    I like our versatility, not this "suggestion" to focus on certain builds.

    Thinking on whether to pick this up or getting the Heldrake and Tauralon kit.
    Need some more of the flyers and of course the Skinks, do have an idea for the Carnosaur

    Overall it just looks a solid box, there's nothing in there I couldn't use right now. Maybe the Starpriest I don't need but that be about it

    We're better off than many armies. We have three Battalions. Sylvaneth have one wargrove, Khorne pretty much only has Gorepilgrims. Most armies seem to have one clear battalion winner, we have three and fourth that is viable if not optimal.

    The fourth viable option is Dracothion's tail, but it is the lesser of the "competitive" battalions.
