Reply To: Warcry Price Up

The boxes may have more content, but as a result the cost of entry has gone up as well.

I can understand gitz and skaven needing to outnumber their opponents as they (ought to be)/are more squishy than the rest.

However I have my doubts about Stormcast needing the numbers as they are elite troops, unless the extra troops are there to provide options.

Daughthers of Khaine : Warcry  : 65 Euro
= 10 witch elves  => 1 box of witch elves for AoS @ 45 Euro;
=  5  melusai blood sisters => 1 box of blood sisters for AoS @ 42,50 Euro

If you want to build an AoS army then it definitely is cheaper to buy a couple of those Warcry warbands instead of the AoS equivalents. The only thing you might not have in that box are the AoS stats, but given that the new AoS codex is coming that may not be a big deal.

However compared to the standard warcry warbands (listed at 40, equivalent to a standard AoS unit box) the increased cost is significant.
