GW Announces Yet More Allocations for Warhammer 40k

GW-allocationsYet more allocations have been announced from Games Workshop to stores for this week’s new Imperial Guard and Black Library releases…

It looks like allocations are back for those new Warhammer 40k and Black Library releases, and while these aren’t the worst allocations we’ve seen (Games Workshop calls them “caps”), they will compound with last week’s allocations. 

Either way, all the stores and groups we polled reported that their orders were once again slashed numbers-wise for many of the new releases this week. This is also the third week in a row with tight allocations, so maybe we’re going back to see them every week.

We hope not, but it’s starting to become a pattern again. For now, though, let’s check out what goes on pre-order this week that’s affected and look at how many of each will be available. 

Games Workshop Allocations Continue for New Imperial Guard & Black Library

Here are the caps that were told to stores: 

  • Imperial Guard Combat Patrols- Only 5  per store
  • Captain Messinius- Varies Per Store
  • Black Library books- Only 1 each per store

Luckily this time, the Rough Riders, characters, and IG upgrade set aren’t allocated. 

As we said, this week isn’t nearly as bad as the past two weeks, but still, it’s never good to see caps hit stores. Considering the Combat Patrol has been quite delayed, it is really annoying to see this. However, at least the rest of the wave two Imperial Guard stuff is fully available.

If this week’s new releases don’t appeal to you, check out all these Warhammer 40k and AoS box sets and bundle deals that are going for close to 40% off on eBay right now!
