Declan (2023) – if you came here looking for 2023 boxes, their article is here!
Battleforce boxes are back after their success in 2020 & 2021. These are a fantastic way to get into a new army or even add to an existing one, but whats inside them and how many points of miniatures do you get?
Welcome to Woehammer – have you noticed the lovely feeling of no adverts (ads), no pop-ups and no auto-playing videos? Well, that’s the norm here at Woehammer.
But this is only possible because of our wonderful Patreons. So, some articles over 1 year old will now display our Patreon request at the top of the article… like this one! Don’t worry, we are not adding ads – but if you can afford to donate to the site, we would definitely appreciate it. Membership is available from just £1/month (plus taxes!!)
Well Warhammer Community have announced that they are coming back for 2022!
(If you’re looking for the 2022 – Age of Sigmar – information its here)
Prices have been confirmed for the AoS boxes to be £130, so I wouldn’t expect 40k to be different – Peter. In the meantime I thought our readers would like to know the value of the toys… so see below against each box:
| Battleforce Boxset | Cost | RRP |
| Adepta Sororitas – Sanctorum Guard | £191.00 | £130 |
| Adeptus Custodes – Watchers of the Gate | £202.50 | £130 |
| Adeptus Mechanicus – Elimination Maniple | £184.50 | £130 |
| Imperial Knights – Chainbreaker Lance | £205.00 | £130 |
| Death Guard – Council of the Death Lord | £196.00 | £130 |
| Thousand Sons – Court of the Crimson King | £201.00 | £130 |
| Imperial Fists – Bastion Strike Force | £194.50 | £130 |
| Raven Guard – Ravenstrike Battleforce | £195.50 | £130 |
A very similar value in each box, although the Death Guard one is very tempting… don’t tell Sanguinius!
