Mannfred, Neferata and Arkan are £48 each. The Spirit Host and Archai are available a week later I expect. Looks like some pre-defined army bundles are due too.

Seems the book is going to be direct only now apparently-

Hmm interesting about the book dropping back to GW direct - I checked a few of the UK online stores as I had preordered from one;
4TK have removed the book, Element Games has marked as Direct Only, Outpost still has it listed, Wayland does, but with a 6th september ship date....all in all it seems confused.
Just worth bearing in mind if anyone has/intends to get from somewhere other than GW direct

Think GWS is trying to make everyone only shop with them for this new big release?
RE: The first Necromancer stirs - manrogue - 29-08-2014
They have for a while with the revised trade terms and making a lot of stuff direct only, so this wouldn't surprise me.
Still seems a bit silly to me that something this big in fantasy (it strikes me as escalation for WFB) would be direct only....
Especially when the Nagash has no restriction.
RE: The first Necromancer stirs - aprilmanha - 29-08-2014
I wonder if GWS view the Trade partners as causing the customer dissatisfaction? Like by offering a 10% discount, people are flocking to them and now expect the 10% discount at all times and now see any £50 new kit as only worth £45, and so "devalues" the product?
RE: The first Necromancer stirs - CheZZoR - 01-09-2014
Got my Nagash in the post today. The kit looks pretty daunting but after watching the video tutorials posted by GW on youtube i'm feeling a bit more confident in some of the techniques to paint it. I'm looking forward to it...
I was going to start assembling tonight but hadn't realised i've ran out of glue

People's thoughts?
RE: The first Necromancer stirs - aprilmanha - 02-09-2014
I like it, I was never super keen on the free floating version that had come before, and it makes sense to put your super lord/demigod on the back of one of your toughest beasts to ride into battle to keep him safe!
RE: The first Necromancer stirs - will - 03-09-2014
that steagdon-slann combo looks like a mighty tempting target for a cannon. Shame Beastmen and wood elves don't do cannons :-P.
Like the model though. I have my fingers crossed that there will be some Beastmen characters coming with the endtimes at some point.
I've yet to purchase a copy of the nagash:endtimes book. what do people think of the book? and is lore of undeath any good?
RE: The first Necromancer stirs - Gareth - 03-09-2014
Do you both realise Lord Mazdamundi has been in the game for a while? This isn't a new character, just a new model, to go with the end times.
