The Leagues of Votann are getting a Combat Patrol. What will it be worth in price and points? Let’s do some math and find out.

Games Workshop has announced that the Leagues of Votann are getting a new Combat Patrol and it’s going to be a deal. Without even knowing the price I can already tell you that much. How do I know? Well, it’s a Combat Patrol. The real question is how much of a discount will it be?

All the Combat Patrols clock in at $150. As long as this follows the same pattern (and it should) then we are looking at this box from that price point. As of publishing time, we don’t have confirmation on any of the prices for the units as none of this stuff is up for pre-order…yet. But here’s what you’re getting in the box:

Combat Patrol: Leagues of Votann Breakdown

  • Ûthar the Destined
  • 10x Hearthkyn Warriors
  • 3x Hernkyn Pioneers
  • 5x Cthonian Beserks

Based on previous pricing structures I’d estimate that these boxes are going to be in the $50-$60 range. The Ûthar the Destined might be in the $35-$45 range, but that’s only because he’s a character that can be built as a ‘generic’ HQ option.

Assuming that this box is $150, then you’re getting 3 boxes around the $50-$60 range and another box in the $35-$45 range. Even on the low end this box is $185 worth of miniatures for $150. On the high end it’s over $200 in value and still only $150. You’re basically going to get a “free” character as the “discount” in this box.

Now, is this box going to be worth it? For anyone who missed the Army Set and wants to play a Leagues of Votann Army, absolutely. Heck, even if you bought the box you can still use the extra models from this set. There’s some overlap but not in a bad way.

In fact if you’re brand new to the Leagues (as pretty much everyone is) then I’d say snag two copies of this one. That will net you 20 Hearthkyn Warriors, 6 Hernkyn Pioneers, and 10 Beserks. Plus you can build one HQ as Ûthar the Destined and the other as a “generic” Kâhl. And you’re going to want to have that other Kâhl around, too.

Point-wise, we can also do a quick breakdown of how many points you’re getting in this box.

  • Ûthar the Destined – 160 points
  • 10x Hearthkyn Warriors – 120 points + wargear
  • 3x Hernkyn Pioneers – 105 points + wargear
  • 5x Cthonian Beserks – 150 points + wargear

Total: 535 + wargear

And again, if you buy two, you basically double that and can run full sized squads for each of these units. The generic Kâhl is only 80 points + Wargear, too. This would make a great core to build out from for a new Leagues of Votann Army. Also, because we have the points values post-nerf you can map out the rest of your army purchases already.

At $150 this is a good starting point for a new Leagues of Votann Army. And now that the rest of the options are finally available you’ll actually be able to build the army properly!

 

Army Set box + Combat Patrol is a great place to start!
