I'm in the group that thinks it's a terrible excuse for a starter set. First, it's too expensive for what you get. Second, if a new player buys this and decides they want to get more into Warcry, they find out they don't have a full warband, they don't have a full rulebook, they don't have a legal sized game mat or enough terrain to play a game. They've basically wasted the price of this box and have to rebuy everything to play proper games. 😒
I think you're so right when you say that the product sorta becomes useless if you decide you want to play warcry properly.. I feel like for a long time warcry has lacked a proper starter box like kill team has (ie two warbands, full rules, dice, tokens and cards). Killteam has that at an affordable price and its always in stock, warcry has nothing like it and its genuinely been a barrier to me getting into the game for a decent while..
I would like to say thT for a chocolate board game club this is a great idea. If there was a way to use other underworld bands in this as well it would help schools out
It looks like an interesting box, but comparing it to the £65 kill team starter it's an absolute rip off... Even by GW standards which is already pretty low.
Hmmm, odd halfway house starter set. It does seem you'd be better off buying the full game if that's your jam as it seems you'll end up needing everything from it anyway. Either way, thanks for the unboxing!
85€ are a crime! This set is worth 50€ max. I got it for 60€ which was the cheapest I could find. It has a cheap box, map, recycled underworld warbands, cheap shitty dice. Only the book and the few terrain pieces are worth it. All that is obvious when you compare the Underworlds starter with this starter. The Underworlds for 50€ is more and better quality and only misses some terrain. How are pushfit complicate? Some people just need to learn reading the building instructions! You didn't know the "vampires" are called Soulblight Gravelords(tm)? How dare you!? Immean it's printed everywhere on the box, rules and cards?
How to play ANY Games Workshop game: step 1. buy rulebook step 2. buy a resin 3d printer. step 3. save thousands on overpriced plastic. ;) I'm sorry but sets like this are not worth the price. Want to know how many minis/terrain i can print for that prices? ~4-7x as many.
In what respect? For existing or committed players I agree - but it does introduce the system for a fraction the cost of the starter boxes which have everything.
