Hexfire Battlebox inbound

 



Well Yesterday Warhammer Community released the info on the upcoming Grey Knight vs Thousand Sons battlebox.

No previously they released images of the Crowe model and I have been waiting for the box announcement to make my final decision.



During the original preview I was looking for someone in my group to split the models with. I had potentialy found someone but we were waiting for the release to make our decision. Years of playing Space Wolves makes me really hate Thousand Sons (sorta like my hatred of Orks being a Crimson Fist player) so collecting a Thousand Sons army was a no go.  So I am 50/50 on getting the box.



Crowe after seeing the model....yeah still not sure it depends whats in the box. Hopefully they change his rules as he currently is the ONLY Model with a CCW in the entire Grey Knight Codex. So I am at 50/50 on the box still.



What's in the box for Grey Knights? 10 Power Armored Marines to make 1 10man or 2 5 man Squads of  Strike Marines/ Purifiers / Interceptor/ Purgation. 1 Nemesis Dreadknight/ Grand Master in Nemesis Dreadknight. And Cowe.....

VS 



an Infernal master, 5 Sacarb Occult Terminators, 10 Tzangors and a Tzangor Shaman.....



So Grey Knights are known for their use of  Terminator armor. Thosand Sons are known for the All is Dust Rubric Marines.


So after seeing the box, I am not getting it. I'll pick up Crowe if I find him cheap enough and probably the rules off of ebay. But hard pass otherwise. 

Now this I will be buying, well the Grey Knight one.
