Tau Targeted Reconnaissance Cadre $170
1 TY7 Devilfish
1 XV86 Coldstar Battlesuit, with 1 Drone
1 XV88 Broadside Battlesuit, with 2 Drones
1 XV95 Ghostkeel Battlesuit, with 2 Drones
3 XV25 Stealth Suits, with 1 Drone
10-model Pathfinder Team, with 3 Drones
A free 6″ move that doesn’t count as a move? That could be pretty useful!
Adeptus Mecahanicus Eradicator Cohort $170
1 Sydonian Dragoon
2 Kastelan Robots and an attendant Datasmith
3 Kataphron Battle Servitors – Destroyers
5 Sicarian Infiltrators
5 Fulgurite Electro-Priests
Ouch – that will up their deadliness across the board. Keep in mind that effect is not limited to just 1 enemy unit…
Space Wolves Ironclaw Strike Force $170
1 Iron Priest
1 Stormfang Gunship
1 Venerable Dreadnought
5 Wolf Guard Terminators
5 Fenrisian Wolves
15 Bloodclaws
Oh those Blood Claws…always trying to prove themselves.
Deathwatch Watchblade Taskforce $170
1 Watch Master
1 Deathwatch Razorback
5 Deathwatch Bikers
5 Deathwatch Terminators
3 x 5-man Deathwatch Kill Teams
3 Deathwatch Upgrade frames
This one really showcases how the Deathwatch work in concert. I think some wise tabletop generals will be able to really take advantage of this one.
If you want to take a look at the Pricing Breakdowns for all the new Battleforces you can do that HERE. I will say for $170 these are all excellent deals. Some of them are more of a “value” than others but you’re still getting a nice discount.
If you combine them with their respective Start Collecting boxed sets, you’ll end up with a really nice starter army with a ton of special rules and synergies across the force. It’s almost like Games Workshop planned it…
What do you think of these new Battleforce Formations? What about these new Battleforces in general?
