Now that I got all my money together, I was viewing all the choices for Halo Wars 2 pre-orders and I see each company has their own offers. I couldn’t decide as each seemed tempting to get like GS gives you 5 pins plus an Atriox DLC pack while BB offers an Atriox figure from the loot crate and a DLC for blitz so I would apreciate if you guys can help my decide or give your own idea on which company I should buy from. THANKS!

I preordered mine on the xbox store, I live in the UK so there was no way I was going to buy something from gamestop or Australia.
Wait so the Atriox package is only limited to the UK?
I ordered mine on Windows 10 to make sure that I have Xbox Play Anywhere. I’ll eventually get a hard copy from Gamestop as well.
Microsoft Store - Professor Anders Pack
Gamestop - Atriox Pack
Bestbuy - Decimus Pack
Amazon - Captain Cutter Pack
EB Games - Shipmaster Pack
Halo Wars 2 Collector’s Edition Strategy Guide - Skin Pack
Xbox Console - I don’t see anything
Walmart - I don’t see anything
Target - I don’t see anything
So what would be your personal choice
Whatever you like best? It’s just personal preference. Ik a lot people are doing BB because of the figure. I’m sticking with GS for the power up reward points.
Okay thanks!

It comes with more campaign missions halo wars definitive edition and a season pass so I’d say that’s the best deal but that’s just my opinion
I am changing the question :
Why so much difference in editions between countries ?
And I come to that:
Why do Australians EXCLUSIVELY have a steelbook !?
What are these marketing choices !?
Amazon with Prime has the best pre-order bonus I can think of, which is to save 20$ before tax (thus saving almost 30$ overall). Plus, free shipping on top of that is great. Saving money beats little pins any day if you ask me.
They should just give you a choice on packs…

ske7ch touched on this in the last Community Update:
> As we get closer to launch, many of you are starting to see all sorts of pre-order offers popping up at your favorite retailers. If you haven’t pre-ordered the game yet and are debating where you might make that purchase, check around because different retailers have different bonuses ranging from an Atriox statue to collector’s pins to some in-game Blitz decks for digital purchases. And yes, I know that as a Halo Wars fan this kind of thing can be frustrating because hey, all of these cool bonuses are awesome and naturally we want ALL OF THEM. For better or worse, this is the nature of the games retail business as marketing teams around the world partner with retailers who obviously look to differentiate themselves and offer something unique to their customers. Grim himself is quite depressed that he may never get his hands on the awesome steelbook SKU we’ve seen being sold in Australia. [shakes fist in broken-hearted frustration - Grim]

Xbox store has the Isabel pack. And the collectors edition guide is a recruit pack. The ‘skins’ are just stickers.
So just a question:
Atriox or Decimus?
