Why You MIGHT NOT Want the Leviathan Box

The new Warhammer 40k Leviathan box is going on pre-order very soon - but is it really right for you? Take a look at why it might not be.

Splitting a box with a friend. He's getting the soulless, monstrous bad guys. I'll be getting the Tyranids.
Only issue is who gets the cool book... I'm considering asking him if I could give him a tenner or so to keep it, so he effectively gets a deeper discount on his half. We have a pre-order secured at our FLGS so we'll be paying £65(!!!) each

As a new Warhammer 40k fan, I wanted EVERYTHING that was in that box. So I bought it. My best purchase in my life so far

[Kevin.Mitchell]

I just did some rearranging in my hobby room and found a sealed box of Indomitus under a pile of other things - I don't think Leviathan will fare any better so I'll not be getting it. Some of the new sculpts look good though, I hope people have fun with it.

[InfernoZz]

the hype for 10th edition has given me so much motivation to paint the models i already own that i don’t really want to buy this box and work on that instead, which was probably not their intention lol

[Yoonie]

My friend and I played 20 years ago. We just recently got back into it for nostalgic reasons. This box is perfect for us.

The worst part about the Leviathan Box set, is it is not balanced. It is heavily slanted into the Space Marines side. Many people say you need to add nearly 200 points of Tyranids to balance it out. Money wise you get quite a bit worth of Tyranids though, just not enough to make it balanced.

I genuinely appreciate this video. I was getting caught up in a fomo frenzy, and realized I am unlikely to have to hobby time for it. I am budgeting that time for the next warcry and Old World.

I've not played since the 80s when a buddy introduced me to Warhammer Fantasy Battle... we spent hours playing that simple game. Warhammer 40k has always been on my radar being a huge fan of the books and lore. Now as an older gamer with plenty of disposable income it seemed like a cost effective way to dive into the hobby.

Im new(returning) to the hobby and primarily will be collecting Eldar. However I have decided to pick this up for the Combat Patrol selections for the Space Marines and Tyranids so that I have other forces to play against with my ELdar with my kids.

[jamesflint]

Leviathan Box is perfect for me as i play and collect and paint custom space hulk games at home and i love both the the space marines and Tyranid armys. Im from the UK so it would cost me around £150 so bargain.

[philipposziakas]

It's $420 here in Australia. I vividly remember buying the Dark Imperium set in 2019 for only $250 Brand New at a Gamesworkshop store. You can say what you want about 'inflation' but that price jump in plastic over just 4 years is absolutely ridiculous ... cool models though 😅

[Gumlass]

I want to buy it, but am not sure that'll be possible. In Australia, my FLGS and the two biggest online retailers didn't get enough copies to cover their reservation list.

Great video as always, Uncle.

Also, just got my hands on the print version of Majestic 13, and it’s great. Can’t wait to get it to the table.

Keep up the good work.

[jimbomacroth]

This is like one of those deprogramming sessions for leaving a cult.

[briochepanda]

An exceptionally level-headed video. An excellent was to help curb expectations for some.
That being said, I'm looking at the Neurotyrant and thinking it'd be brilliant for Majestic 13.

[Christian_from_Copenhagen]

All good points, Adam. You released Majestic 13 at a perfect time, just a few days before the David Grusch story 🛸

[GoDSkRiLLa]

I'm super glad I called up my LGS early enough to be number 12 on their list basically as soon as the launch box was announced. I'm seriously looking forward to that book! My buddy is a Xenos fan and I of course like Space Marines so I'm giving him all the Nids. While I'm not immediately painting the contents (still finishing up my 2k pts of Tsons) I'm extremely excited to make my Custom Chapter! Hope they release some more flexible rules for Chapter Masters, as mine is a psyker, but either way I'm looking forward to this launch!

[Pariahwulfen]

You left out my personal favorite reason to buy the new box, to make gags about it being a new version of Space Hulk.

[RecklessFables]

I never even took the Indomitus Box Set models off the sprues.

[frthlvfchrt]

I mean, I got the 8th and 9th edition boxes at launch, and never got around to playing any games of either. And still haven't painted the Marines out of 9th.
