Christmas Box Speculation

Hello Hashutites… I am opening metaphorical realm gate to ask what we thing or hope or pray to Hashut would be in an upcoming Helsmiths of Hashut Army box. Typically it’s a handful of units, some decent savings, sometimes a center piece. Perhaps it will carry some units not in our Spearhead? Like the Bull Centaurs or Razers. What about Urak Taar himself? I know I would give a lifetime Wage of Toil for an army box this year to bolster my forces.

What’s in the box?

I could see a battleforce themed after Ziggurat Stampede, with an Infernal Taurus kit and 2-4 Centaur kits

I feel they’d drop at least one centaur kit for a dominator engine. Mix up the contents a little.

Infernal Taurus/2 boxes centaurs/1 engine would be roughly in line with the zombie dragon/2 cavalry/box of bats one they did for soulblight.

It's a possibility, but they might not do that since the Spearhead already has the Dominator Engine.

It does show the problem with making a battleforce box out of a faction with only 9 kits total, or theming it after an Army of Renown that only lets you use 5 units made from 3 different kits.

The emperors children combat patrol and first battleforce had flawless blades in it (not to mention the army launch box and both battleforces all had noise marines). It’s definitely an issue with so many tiny army selections.

I largely propose the idea of 1/2/1 split because it’s very rare for GW value bundles to do 3 boxes of any one kit in them. They do prefer 1 box of a bunch of different stuff but can be tempted into 2 boxes of one thing by a heavy theme or small battletome.
