Another bundle box set on the horizon, but how much of a deal is this one? Come see the breakdown Age of Sigmar: Blightwar box and how much you can save!

The new Blightwar box looks like a great deal for your hobby dollar, but how good of a deal?

Well, today we’re going to do a full breakdown so you know just how good of a deal you’re getting with this $160 box set.

AoS Blightwar

Let’s start off with the Stormcast Eternals part of the box.

  • 3x Vanguard-Raptors $35
  • 3x Vanguard-Palladors $60
  • 5x Vanguard Hunters $30 (Half box)
  • Neave Blacktalon $??

AoS Blightwar Stormcast

That’s already a total of $125 worth of models for the Stormcast Eternals, and that’s not including the Neave Blacktalon model which we don’t have a price for yet. The average single model for Stormcast ranges anywhere from $25 to $40 on the Games Workshop website, so that should give you some kind of idea on what it will cost.

So lets say $150 total with the new ladycast.

Now, let’s take a look at the Nurgle half of the box.

  • 10x Plaguebeaers $29
  • 3x Nurglings $25
  • 3x Plague Drones $60
  • Horticulous Slimux $??

AoS Blightwar Nurgle

For Nurgle, we’re see a total of $114 minus the new Horticulous Slimux model which we don’t have a price for yet. But, once again, comparing equal size single models, we’re seeing an average price of $40 to $57. So lets say $154 total value based off that.

Here’s a preview of the two new battalions that come in the box as well:

So all in all it looks like you’re getting an amazing deal with the new Blightwar box. Just counting the prices we know, excluding character models, we’re at a total of $239! After the character models are factored into the price the total value may very well be $304. So it looks like you’ll be saving close to $140, maybe a little more, by purchasing this box which is right around 50% savings off MSRP.  Plus by this point most folks out there can get a discount from their Friendly Local Gaming Store (FLGS) or online and save even more.

If you’re planning on starting a Stormcast Eternals or Nurgle Army this looks like it’s going to be the box for you.
