The Dark Angels one looks okay to me. 10 Terminators, a Terminator Chaplain and a Primarch look okay to me.
But the Tau one… A Crisis Commander, a Collossus, a Ghostkeel and a Riptide doesn't feel worth it to me.
But value will have to be determined by the price of these. Although I can't imagine that they'll be much of a saving with GW these days.
Id say the real issue with the tau (and most of GW products) is the premium we have to pay. Our main unit is so expensive for just 3 models, and the Christmas box only gives us a commander for them. Riptide does look nice though
40k was never cheapt, but the prices for current 40k are ridiculous. Almost 70€ for the Crisis suits is criminal.
What's really outrageous is that depending on the price, the tau box could be a good deal. Broadside and crisis commander aren't that bad compared to the ghostkheel (€72.50) and riptide (€93)
The Knight box looks alright for me who got a few questoris and acastus but only two armigers
I expect pricing to be in line with previous battleforces... so not much in the way of savings here.
I absolutely could be wrong.
