I expect better from you lot - your not even trying hard to take the pee out of this mine of entertainment, granted they don't make it difficult but, come on - some quality entertainment please!

What about http://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Stormcast-Eternals-Gaming-Bundle-ENG

Seriously - a HEWN knobby measuring stick -  box made of THE HARDEST resin and some dice, and the rules in a book! That's probably HEWN from THE HARDEST paper...

zero discount of any kind for bundle purchase - even qualifies for free uk delivery, at current pricing, for this month at least

Bargain!

Hey and that shaker is neoprene coated on the inside so if anyone else actually turns up other than the slaaneshi tenticle tickler, they won't hear you shaking things in it.

Never thought I would ever see something like this though

The Prices... £0

I... I... Think I need a bigger stiffer drink. and its not even 9am yet  :o

I will put t'kettle on..

The Combat Gauge comes on a thick cord, with magnetic clasps, and can be worn away from the gaming table as a unique accessory.

I can see that advert now - Tom Kirby in Catachan jungle fatigues, stripped to the waist with a red bandana and camo facepaint.  He's wearing a Combat Gauge round his neck.  He looks into the camera:

"This thing will make you a goddam sexual Tyrannosaurus.  Just like me".

Considering the new rules, it really should double as a bottle opener.

Methinks that, all things considered, it should double as a eye opener.

I really have no idea what I'm doing.

Clearly a desperate ploy to make existing players buy into AoS.

Anybody noticed the circular hole in the trinket? Any guesses as to which purpose it is there (other than save material)?

bottle opener of frustration - no matter how hard you look you cannot find a bottle small enough to open

Suspect the original HEWN measuring thing was bigger, and actually was meant to be a bottle opener - they just copied it and Hewed it smaller to replace tape measures and non-hewn plastic measuring sticks?

Maybe they will introduce a rule saying "add 3 to your to hit roll if you can draw a perfect circle, 5mm in diameter (please not our fashionable babe magnet measure gauge has a 5mm hole)"?

They used to only announce these kind of new products on April the first. Now it is like every day is April 1st with these people.

If its not hewn it can't be any good.

Looks like some other old GW video games are showing up for cheap. Knuck from Dakka:

http://www.gog.com/game/warhammer_40000_chaos_gate
http://www.gog.com/game/warhammer_shadow_of_the_horned_rat
http://www.gog.com/game/final_liberation_warhammer_epic_40000

I bought Shadow of The Horned Rat because I enjoyed it's sequel, Dark Omens, and despite some reviews there it works okay on my computer. Bit clunky though. I might just wait 'til Gog puts DO up.
