Not sure what the long term aim is with these. I'd collected majority of Celebrations set as I thought these were long gone. But on finding these I sold off majority of my Celebrations set, as it had essentially just been a placeholder for my childhood cards. These would have all been from the themed decks or traded on the school playground as I don't remember ever opening any packs as a kid.

I managed to pick up the Tyranid half of the starter set for a great price, and got some Tyranids from an old starter box; which combined puts me up to just under 1k. I've managed to secure a copy of Terror on Devlan, so I'll have another 10 Termagants and the Red Terror to add to the mix. Biovore and Raveners are high on the want list too.

I have this box from a few years back and looking to pair it with this combat patrol which I've managed to pick up for a good price.

The aim is to build up to 1k points for a crusade which a local group play. I think they're hoping to run Crucible rules next Crusade, so I could perhaps look to run the Carnifex as a character in that? What would you do with one?
