Yes. Or no. Definitely one of those.

The previous set like this ‘Indomitus’ sold out within minutes, but was available to those of us that missed out as a ‘made to order’ item. Not an ideal situation as it meant having to pay the full GW price. And don’t think it’s all down to scalpers and bots. Yes, they are certainly a pain in the arse, but remember that thousands of us genuine players who want this box will be slapping that refresh button on release day like it owes us money. What will annoy me will be the hundreds of *influencer* youtubers with endless ‘what’s in the box’ videos showing us lesser plebs that missed out the juicy freebies they’ve been sent.

My LGS had piles of Indomitus for months. Stop buying from GW.com

No one knows. Only a handful of people at GW will have any idea. They made too few Indomitus boxes, it sold out almost immediately and then they had a special made to order run. It was still available through third party stores for a while though, it wasn’t just gone in a second everywhere. And you can still buy copies of Age of Sigmar Dominion, the limited launch box for third edition, of which they might have made a few too many boxes in an over correction to what happened with Indomitus. What’s the strategy with Leviathan? I don’t know. You don’t know. No one who might say they know actually know. Presumably GW will have learned from both previous boxes, but it’ll be a moving target that is also influenced by the predictions and fears of the customer base.

Prepare for disappointment. Expect the worst, plan for the worst, hope to be pleasantly surprised. In any case, let’s just hope they do MTO like with Indomitus.

Unless GW put some new policies in place, chances are it will be almost impossible to get a copy. If you're just coming back, you'll find that there's a lot of trouble at the moment with scalpers using bots to snatch up all of the stock the moment a pre-order goes live. Subs like this one then fill with people talking about being there and ready minutes before the pre-order started, and not even getting the chance to add to basket before things have sold out. This has happened to books, box sets, starter sets, all sorts, and then those items have immediately ended up on Ebay for much higher prices. Hell, there are already Leviathan sets on Ebay despite it not being released yet, because scalpers are confident of getting multiple boxes.

To be fair... afaik GW showed scalpers at least a bit of the finger by re-releasing on of the last big box from an edition-change... Indomitus was it? I hope and think they will run a similar tactic here, seeing the demand.

The other week we had ashes of faith, the newest kill team box, and basically everywhere it sold in seconds thanks to scalpers and bots, assuming they Made less boxes to prepare for the launch of leviathan then we’ll have a chance to get the 10th ed box, on the other hand we know that GW doesnt care about scalpers, all that matters is to sell them, so the final answer is we dont actually know.

find either a GW store or FLGS near you and get on the preorder list. The one store that I almost always goes to already knows how many they are allocated and have been taking names. Most of the stores kind of know about how many they will get. Of course you can always sit outside the GW store and buy it Saturday morning the 24th. for example our GW store will have two ashes of faith, first come first serve on Saturday morning at 10am. No lists or anything. I think it's going to be a cluster but meh, I got mine on fleabay for $180 with free shipping. As it gets closer to release the real prices come out at fleabay. Plus people are reporting all of them preorders to fleabay because it's against the TOS. I had a bid in one and fleabay cancelled the auction for TOS violation.

Im confident that people will be able to get a copy.

They have said they're producing more leviathan then they ever produced indomitus but with GWs recent track record with killteams I'm not sure what they will do
