Hi All,
We got news over the weekend that the last Boarding Patrol boxes have been announced and will be arriving shortly. These two are a little odd in that one is for the Votann and the other is a strange medley of units under the grouping of: “Imperial Agents”.
Leagues of Votann
Included:
- 1x Einhyr Champion $40
- 5x Cthonian Beserks $60
- 5x Einhyr Hearthguard $60
- 10x Hearthkyn Warriors $60
Anticipated price: $130
Anticipated Savings: $90
Assessment: I don’t know a lot about the Votann or what units are the best but this seems to be a pretty good deal. Firstly, you have a generic hero which means if you get multiple boxes you can covert them into other options (depending on your creativity). You also get three other kinds of units which, when you consider the Votann only have 7, non-HQ units, means you will probably have a place for each of them. Alongside the cost savings that will likely come in this box, the patrol pairs decently with the combat patrol making it a good option for new or existing Votann players.
Imperial Agents
Included:
- 1x Eversor Assasin $40
- 1x Elucidian Starstriders $60
- 20x Imperial Navy Breachers $120
Anticipated price: $130
Anticipated Savings: $90
Assessment: This is such a weird melange of units that I expect it to appeal mostly to Kill-Team players who can build 2 kill teams with this box. Cost-wise it’s a good deal, and you can get a thematic force for narrative missions if you really want. Besides that I don’t really know what else to say. I guess we know what units GW has an oversupply of. I feel bad for the Eversor. He’s obviously been bullied by the other assassins that have a better role and has had to make new friends.
