I was adding up all the units of the Tau Battleforce to see how much of a saving it gives you. And I discovered that the individual contents come to £91!
I've taken this opportunity to stock up on these at £48 each from Wayland Games before GW makes them unavailable. I just ordered 4 and saved myself £43 per box. So that's £172 I just saved, which I will of course spend further down the line.
But will the Crisis battlesuit get replaced with a new model? At this price I don't care too much, because I just made a huge saving and the other models in the box will certainly be carried forward.
I also bought a copy of Super Dungeon Explore while I was at it. I mean, why not? I'll no doubt post a review of it in time once I've played a couple of games with it.
I'm really looking forward to building and painting my Tau army again!

About Warhammer Tau

Warhammer Tau is my blog where I talk about my Tau army in Warhammer 40K, the tournaments I attend, the friends that I play against and how difficult an army is to paint when you're a perfectionist!
I'm updating the design and layout of the blog at the moment, so please bear with me!

I think it depends very much on the style of army you play.
I don't use kroot and my FWs are MSUs so I don't need many of those.
Obviously it's a great box for people who use lots of kroot and/or FWs.
Now, if the battle force had a version that was suit heavy, then I'd be very interested.
Il nab some of the battle suits off you mate, I need a few more to bulk out forces.
