      Yeah, but combat patrols seem kind of intro points for collecting minis, and then this way of buying them kind of sucks. I mean, if two people want to get into the hobby and friend 1 wants to get space marines then he's fine, but he's gonna have to wait months until friend 2 gets his combat patrol, especially if that person wants one of the later factions. So it's very likely that one person is just gonna sit on a fully built army before his friend even gets a single model. This only really works if you have several friends that already have models, and play one of these factions, and haven't already bought the combat patrols.

      I've thought about doing this for that reason, with the caveat being that some of my local communities tend to be down on people who don't have a full 2000-point list (more so my main Sigmar community than its 40k counterpart, who seem more forgiving about this), so I'm taking that into consideration as well.

I live in CAN and was being charged +$67 per month for Imperium and a $6.95 shipping charge all of which were in USD (so at the mercy of exchange rates and provincial/federal taxes). So what started out as a few bucks an issue for the premium subscription quickly went up to approx $115 CAD a month which is fine if you've planned for it. I can only imagine what the Aussies and Kiwi's are subjected to as they seem to have it worst of all.

      People who subcribed to Warhammer 40.000: Conquest/Imperium:
      UK and USA: We have to pay the delivery costs!😭😭😭
      Germany: You guys having to pay for delivery?🧐
      Jokes aside, the germans really didn't paid for the delivery for those Magazines, because in the Description stands that delivery is free to Germany. Only Austrian, Swiss and Luxembourg had just to pay 0,50 €, according to the upcoming Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Stormbringer, which starts on the 10th of January 2024.
      Also i know you guys got your delivery for 4 Issues.
      In Germany (as i experienced) we started with 3 Issues in the first Delivery, 4 in the second and for the rest of the run with 6 Issues (though we must wait 6 weeks for it).
      Except for the last one, which contain 7 Issues for Conquest and 5 for Imperium, due to the extended run from 80 to 90 Issues.
      So you have my condolences!

    From a hobbying perspective, getting a slow trickle of new minis to try and complete before the next delivery sounds entertaining.
    BUT when I thought about the fact you can get 2 complete 2000point armies for the price of the magazine run, I kind of decided it's not a great idea. Choose your 2 favorite factions and spend £40 a month, and you'll end up much happier by the end of 80 weeks.

    I think if you looked at it differently, if you spent £40 - 50 a month, at 3rd party retailers, on specific models you want for a faction or two factions, whilst looking at like xmas boxes or starter kits as well, then over 18 months you'd have two very nice armies of stuff you want.

      As a full time commission painter I would advise to just go for the commissions. Working with clients (with strange requests) is quite a different experience then practicing for yourself.
      Also, selling every model you paint is not for everyone, it ruins the "hobby" feel quite bit.
      Quite a few people give commissions a try and then release they actually don't want their hobby to become a job.
      That's all valuable experience that this kind of project won't give you, in addition to this costing money and not making you any!

      That said if you look in the new White Dwarf they just added the old Vanguard Marines set as an additional Combat Patrol - so the old combat patrol minus the Impulsor.

    Yeah. It's a much better idea to just pick a couple combat patrols you're interested in, get them from a discount retailer, and pay like 250 dollars instead of 1200. I have no idea who this is marketed to. Beginners won't want to dive THIS deep into the hobby to begin with. Veterans won't want the paints/brushes, or the models that don't go with their current army. If you want to collect a NEW army there's no reason why you'd want to start 7 at once.

Maybe sell them online I suppose but no guarantee you'll get good value. I think for people who wanted to start a 2nd or 3rd army, like you say much better to pick up a combat patrol or xmas box or whatever for that faction from a 3rd party retailer, add a couple of other kits on top and you can probably get a 1k army on the table for £150 or something. Plus I'd imagine a lot of people are like me, where their main army would get a lot of duplicate kits, I am pretty sure I have all if not most of those SM models.

    Something to take into account is the combat patrol mod : small armies with custom rules to balance them.
    GW might be trying to push more people toward it.
    The extra miniature are here to tempt us toward 1000 points armies, because patrol+1/2 model isn't really playable on its own.

    The lists are actually pretty solid for 1k if you get the premium sub edition.
    Orks only need mozrog or maybe a battle wagon and meganobs to hit 1k.
    The space marines need a bit more but the vanguard detachment letting you make either a terminator character or the bike Chaplin a lone operative is big for flexibility. It’ll either be a fast bike or a deep striker. Getting more terminators is the easiest pick but outriders could work (especially if you have a 9th edition elite half lying around or at your locals).
    The csm and world eaters halfs work fabulous together. You can make a 1k list out of either box with the three shared models.
    GSC with the guard as brood brothers has so many options to hit 1k it’s not even funny.
    Aeldari and guard need the most help but are pretty easy to get to 750 with one more cheep kit each.
    League’s pretty desperate for some vehicles and maybe grimnyr.
    Tyranids is easy just get genestealers to run with the brood lord from the GSC half.

    Stormbringer's opening issues are pretty stacked, with a Krondys at just box 5 waiting for those who buy Premium. By issue 18, you have the entirely of the Mid-range Sigmar starter, the Generals from the small Starter, a heavy unit for each army, a pair of Underworlds Warbands, rare Underworlds terrain, 10 paints, the brushes, nippers, and glue to assemble it all...and Krondys.

    @joshuamakin3053 8 місяців тому

    One of the things I do like about the magazines, is the content within. Like, cheap models, paints etc is great. But having rules, scenarios, narratives, painting guides is really good. Especially for me being a new player. Just started stormbringers (Australia is just starting theirs). I prefer small armies combat stuff, started with killteam, and enjoying that very much.
    One day, I wish for a bloodbowl magazine, for teams, stadium, and star players.

  • @8Adnihilo8
    @8Adnihilo8 10 місяців тому

    As an adult with a fairly limited amount of free time I don't think these subscriptions are worth it, but with the time to delve into reading each magazine and keep up to date with painting the models you get I think this would be fantastic. I got the Conquest subscription when it came out in Australia and it was way too much each month so it just ended up in a box that I pulled out individual ones occasionally and mostly ignored the magazines.
    From what I read of the magazines they would have been the kind of thing that would definitely add to the experience for someone new who has the time, and would add to the value. They had a gentle introduction to the game, a decent amount of lore, and (fairly basic but easy for a beginner to follow) painting instructions.
    My experience with their chat support was frustrating, but their phone support was pretty great. So if you go for this and need to contact support (which wouldn't be unexpected for them) I'd recommend you go by phone if possible.

  • @RetroShotv1

    I'm a complete beginner and I'm kind of looking forward to it but the cost is a lot. I'm more interested in the painting and building side than the battling but that's because I know nothing.
    I believe they will update the offering later as it says the premium sets are issue 15, 33 , 51 and 69 which leaves 20 mags with no premium price potentially or a 5th premium.
    I thought that I might stop the sub after the first premium set as I believe it may give the space marines and tyranid combat patrols.

    I’m gonna be getting this for two reasons, the second being more so why overall.
    1. Many miniatures I want / would love to add to my collection as a newer player or use them for bits / onsell what I don’t need.
    2. For my friends, I don’t think a lot of people put this together but if you have many warhammer friends it’s pretty nice being able to help expand their armies, or getting them some units for cheaper than normal.
    The marines can go to a friend, the votann and orks to another, the astra militatrum to another. Tyranids to myself. The others can be used in between for various stuff/getting new friends into the hobby who might wanna try it.

This means I'll make good use of three of the combat patrols. The other 6 combat patrols should give me something fun to build and paint that I can try out in smaller games.

    Seeing and buying Warhammer Imperium at the newsagent got me interested in gaming again. I'm looking forward to this new Combat Patrol, unfortunately here in Australia they didn't offer the Premium subscription for Imperium and I suspect they will do it again. Honestly, I would have like to have seen them offer Kill Team instead, still get some of the Space Marines and regular 40k armies, but some of the more unique factions like Arbites and Kroot.

  • @richarddixon1450

    One thing I will warn people about as someone who subscribed to the first run of this 40k magazine.
    There is other things that they don't tell about until the month before, which they will charge you for, on a sort of 'opt out' method of business.
    These can be upwards of £15 pounds added on top of your order.
    Examples of things I got.
    A silver templars painting box (which was actually really cool. Ring binder guide, 5 intercessors. 1 lieutenant who you couldn't buy at the time. And about 10 paints)
    Silver templars novel
    Silver templars codex
    So just bare this in mind as the cost could end up being upwards of an extra £100+ on your subscription by the end.

  • @cortofredudu
    @cortofredudu 10 місяців тому

    On a Swiss point of view this is a very good magazine. Here the combat patrols are between 124 and 119 chf (~115 and 111 £) in retail (no official shop in switzerland). And I dont mention the transport and custom taxes if you bought abroad.
    If you add the premium side, its even better.
    One over note you mention that its quite unusuall to have many patrol boxes, but if you see it in the perspectives of a new player, he has the possibility of various gameplays with him and a friend. Dont forget that with the combat patrol rule set you have directly the possibility to play in opposition to the conquest or imperium magazine point wise.
    And with some ok ish starting hobby tools on top of it.
    For an more veteran player this is also a good opoortunity for some hooby projects and add some variaty in your collection but sure its less interessting.
    What you also dont have to look is that some have already the imperium and or the conquest. So its an opportunity to expend your space marine collection too. (I count the SM part here as this total of the patrol boxes are ~66% so a 9th of this is what you pay for 787:3:9=£58 GW price ~£116:2=£58 (no saving here). Imperium magazine SM represent aprox 1/4 of the total price so $701,22:4=£175,31 GW price ~£319.55. Conquest £629.20:3=£209.73 GW price ~£348.50)

  • @Daemonik
    @Daemonik 10 місяців тому +2

    £787 v £1215 is a definite good discount, but it really does depend entirely on wanting everything in the set, in the order they come in the magazine, over the timespan of the sub. Splitting with someone else would decrease that likelihood of "waste", for sure, but it means that you're not "getting something every week" which is part of the attraction of this kind of thing.
    But too scattergun for me, and not enough value in terms of what i want - there's a lot in there i'd just never buy and i don't have the patience for reselling. I'll just stick to buying the things i actually want.

  • @BrettBallanger
    @BrettBallanger 10 місяців тому

    As someone into 3d printing and subscribing to various patreons this is an interesting alternative. There's an appeal of getting a few miniatures and a booklet to go with it each week but as I live in Canada I think the price is just going to be a little too high even when factoring in discounts.
    It seems like it might be a cool way to get a friend or family member into the hobby. The weekly model might also be a good way to keep someone's hobby going. I could also see a club or group going in on it together.

  • @trebacca9

    I'm definitely getting the Premium sub once it hits the US. For the price of one full-price kit a month, I get 1-3 kits from this. Especially notable since the discount retailers in the US aren't nearly as prevalent or generous as they seem to be in the UK. Besides, I already collect 5 of these armies, and I can either resell the other 4 or kitbash or repurpose them.
    Model overload? Certainly, I haven't even finished building and painting all my models from Imperium, but it's fun and I'll never want for options now.

    Get a group of friends or just other players you know. Split the bill. Then just split what each person wants between each other. It would be an easy and cheap way to get units for a group of people at a lower cost though would be a bit slow obviously.
    Bit of an odd system and for general collection I think this is great for building an army less so. If you're just into collecting go for this cause you keep getting kits to make of all kinds, for actually playing and building an army get some others involved.

  • @TheMixEmperor
    @TheMixEmperor 9 місяців тому +1

    I feel like the video kind of neglects the value for painters, hyper focussing on a single faction for an extended period of time really limits your ability to paint well. Someone who paints nothing but space marines might be great at flat armour, but fall apart painting flesh. Having an array of random discounted kits turn up at your door each month makes for absolutely fantastic practice. Not to mention citadel paints and tools, while overpriced normally, are still good quality and worth using, random paints may push you to work in colours you normally don't bother with too.
    Personally, I think the value here is insane for anyone who wants to broaden their ability to paint well.

    I ran all my own calculations and found that, with the Premium sub, even when compared against the 15% discount one can easily find at the FLGS you can still net an extra 25% discount on the minis. This isn't even counting the cost of the paints and extras, so those are basically thrown in for free. It's got a good value, I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth it for someone who already owns several combat patrol boxes. Im guessing you could easily real to break even on cost, doubtful about turning a net profit though, as single mags hitting the market around the same time will drop the take value.

  • @Sharpevil
    @Sharpevil 10 місяців тому

    On the one hand, there's the shipping costs, which I think end up being somewhere around half of the discount you get compared to discount retailers, so that lowers the value.

    Is it a lock in type thing like a gym subscription. If I subscribe am I locked in to 10$ a week for the whole year?
    Or can you go per issue? (Like if I wanted just Orks for example could I just pick up a subscription during the orc month and then cancel?)
    (I doubt it) Do you typically know what’s coming next issue? That way if you’re off board it can give you a reason to jump in midway for the faction you want.
    I’m sort of interested in it because it has units I was eyeing for factions I enjoy and I wouldn’t mind the slow burn of the magazines to pace it/the discount.
