Don’t miss the latest preview for Chaos’ Wrath & Rapture Box that will go on pre-order this Saturday, as we break down of the contents and more!

Recently Wrath & Rapture was one of the highlight previews along with many others from the Vigilus Day Open event.  Fortunately, the preview video revealed the back of the Wrath & Rapture box long enough for us to get a look at the contents!

Now that we’ve seen exactly what comes inside the Box Set, let’s break down the potential cost of all the units.

Wrath & Rapture Box Set Contents

Right around the end of the video with a little luck, you can pause the box set flip to reveal this gem:

So from this, it looks like the box will contain the following units, both new and old, including fluff books and what may be tokens or markers of some sort.

You’ll find rules for these models – and the rest of the stuff in the set – across the booklets included in the set. These detail the lore of the Realm of Chaos, giving hints as to the nature of this mysterious dimension and offering insights into the endless machinations of the Dark Gods.

These books are a real treasure trove and include some great tools for roleplayers and narrative fans, like a pair of naming tables for Daemons – including their multi-syllabic true names. You think this is just a Flesh Hound? This is Cakerspite, also known as Oehleeig’gaeaekw (or Olly, to his mates).

Wrath & Rapture Values

For argument’s sake, we will say that, like all other Box Sets, Wrath & Rapture will more than likely be around $150. On top of that, we’ll be using the old pricing for the updated models that come inside.

You’ll save a considerable chunk of cash compared to getting the sets inside separately, too!

Total MSRP: $305.25

Like we said before, we’re going off the current prices on the old models. Depending on which way GW goes, they could stay the same or go up.

Either way, if the box turns out to be $150, this will be a great deal. Players can split the box and have a solid foundation for an army devoted to their favorite Chaos God, well as long as it is Khorne or Slaanesh that is.
