Win a free Hierophant!

[Overread]

So figured its worth throwing this little bit of news up for the Hive

www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-US/Win-a-Tyranid-Hierophant-Bio-titan

What's VERY interesting is that if you read the rules for the USA/Canada

"4. To enter the prize draw, you must either:
(a) place an order on www.forgeworld.co.uk of at least £50 GBP excluding Virtual Gift Vouchers, Sales Tax and shipping costs (a “Qualifying Online Order”);
or
(b) send an email to [e-mail] with the subject line ‘Win a Tyranid Hierophant Bio-titan’. The body of the email must include: your full name; your contact telephone number; and your full address."

It seems that the other territories you do have to make the £50 purchase in order to be eligible (I assume this is likely due to some Canadian or USA law regarding entry into such prize pools)




Ps if anyone on the Hive does win - do tell us!

Ah, I’ve made a similar thread in the general nid section...

You entering? If so (and if you’re not going for that email option) what will you be buying?
I’m conflicted, but thinking of getting a Dimachaeron. Do you get an entry per £50 spent or just 1?

It's only one entry so you can't buy lots for more entries. I think its basically one per address.

I won't be entering, burned out after christmas - though at present I'm also more building up a Necron force - it has made me wonder once more why the Canoptek Tomb Stalker is cheaper than the Tomb Sentinel since the stalker appears to have more parts; but since I think the stalker looks the better I won't complain.

Aaghh I keep changing my mind about it. On the one had I have lots of cash ATM, and it’s an excuse to buy a dimachaeron when I wasn’t planning on it for a while. On the other hand it’s a low low chance of winning, I should be saving, I have enough to paint at the moment, im not planning on using it without a tyrannocyte (which I don’t have)... etc.

There are quite a few downsides to it actually

As for the necrons, haven’t seen either in person, but the two both look awesome based on the pictures.

Aye I've not seen them in the flesh either but they are two of my favoured FW model designs.


Also look at it this way; you've got the money; you know you're getting a Dimachaeron anyway at some point so why not get it now and have a tiny tiny chance of a win. And if you don't get the free Titan, you still have a mighty Diachaeron ready to go when that Tyranocite appears (or heck you could always run it without it - might fair better than you think

I decided to go for the cop out option - another stone crusher is on the way! I’ll get the Dimachaeron sometime in the future. Thanks for helping me decide, and good luck if you do decide to enter!

Apparently there is “a new competition every week” so look out for a necron one! (Don’t know what model they’d use...)

I figure they'll stick to titans. So things like the Knights, Reavers, Phantams and gargants.

Necrons don't really have a titan and the closest they get is the artillery pylon (which honestly looks rather boring at a high price tag)
