AoS Pre-Ordering, what units should I bundle in? :)

[Tombomb7]

Praise be to Sotek we have a new tome and new ways to play! I'm ordering the tome, terrain and scrolls. Now I just have to figure out if I should order additional items while I'm getting my free delivery.

Latest thoughts on additional purchases are:

• Lord Kroak
• Skink Starseer
• x2 Salamanders & Handlers
• x9 Terradons
• Malign Portents box set (and sell spells I already have) - or just buy one or two select spells on ebay.

If it helps, I already have:

• 1 Slann
• 1 Starpriest
• 1 Priest
• 1 AB
• 1 OB Carno
• 1 Trog
• 1 SV on CO
• 2 EOTG/Stegs - yet to be made. Thinking one of each?
• 2 Bastils
• 60 Skinks
• 24 Knights
• 24 Warriors NIB
• 15 Guards
• 6 Rippers - thinking of converting 3 to Terradons
• 6 flyers NIB
• 3 Razors + handlers
• 1 Sallie + handlers
• Cogs
• BW Vortex
• QS Swords

I'm open to all styles of play and want to order today. Technically money is no object, but I don't want to go crazy XD

Thoughts hopes and dreams are welcome as always!
Maybe this will help out others who are also wondering what they should consider as must buys/nice to haves with our new tome due for release

salamanders and suarus wariors are both good and don't need much buffing

Still wait for the BT itself.

Trogs got really buffed, Starseer got finally a rework so is no longer just a floating skink, but overrall the army got some changes.

We no longer have Bravery 10 nor Stardrake Shields/Star-bucklers baseline, for example.

The Bravery 10 an LoTaS are now faction specific too, and who know what things will be in the rest of the new rules.

I'd say wait for a bit. You can still try to get Malign Portents, Sallies and Kroak for now.

You can consider a SC! Skinks if you don't mind the extra 12 Skinks if you want to save a bit for the Bastie and Terras. Terras shouldn't be a bad purchase anyway: Skink Chiefs are comming back with mounts, so you might need them.

Thanks for your input guys! I've ordered a bunch of stuff now
