Actually, to get started and in to warmachine is far less expensive than 40k.
starter set+marine battleforce = 1000pts army if I remember correctly, sell the orks, buy a codex, so maybe £100 or less and you have yourself rulebooks, templates, dice, codex and 43 models.And what does it take to start an army in 40K?
Something like that, but that's enough to play with when it comes to Warmachine where that'd be a single squad in 40K.Doesn't a Warmachine battlegroup have only 3-5 minis?? :shok: Overpriced seems like an under statement...
Yeah but thats your entire army..... opposed to most of the GW starters which you can't even field without buying another 20-30 $ worth of shit.Doesn't a Warmachine battlegroup have only 3-5 minis?? :shok: Overpriced seems like an under statement...
why do i need a codex? i can start playing 40k with two armies with assault on black reach for $84.$96 for warmachine. All you need is a battlegroup and the rulebook. If you want paint that is going to add another 17.99 and maybe $4 for a standard brush purchased at a crafts store. Total is around $117.
Ok for orks you will need just a battle for black reach and a codex. Thats 119. Now you have to go buy paints.
thats not the point though is it, the question was how much an army costs, that is an army.Yes but how many of us actually start that way? A lot of people tailor a force from scratch...
rulebook £20$96 for warmachine. All you need is a battlegroup and the rulebook. If you want paint that is going to add another 17.99 and maybe $4 for a standard brush purchased at a crafts store. Total is around $117.

And that 96 is the equivalent of fielding a 1000 point army or so. How much for a 1000 point force from GW? BTW, that 96 is across the board. Can GW say that about each of its armies? Hell no.why do i need a codex? i can start playing 40k with two armies with assault on black reach for $84.
so with warmachine i get a squad of minis and a rule book for $96
come on now lets be honest here its at the very least $12 cheaper to start 40k and im gonna get a shit load more models too.
When the pirates at privateer can match that deal and the quality/number of minis then the world will sit up and take notice.
from memory, but now I see black reach is actually £55, not just £50, wow such a huge difference, still 2 black reach, 1 hobby starter set you and friend can share = £140 and 100 models for 2 people.Its still cheaper and faster to set up an army and get to playing with warmachine.
And where do you get your prices? I am getting them of GW and they dont match that at all.
it has rules for the models that come in the box in the boxDoes the AoBR have a codex in it?
