What is The Combat Company
The Combat Company is Australia's largest online retailer of tabletop wargaming products. We have over 10,000 products - our discounted prices are our regular prices. You may have seen us at such events as MOAB, CANCON, Leviathan, Clash of the Titans, Event Horizon, Phenomenon (which is now the most excellent WINTERCON). We usually look like this: ![]() We started trading back in 2004 with an old box of bits and a dodgy eBay store under the username spacewolfs2004. As our little homemade business grew, we adopted the moniker of The-War-Lord and operated a very dark little independent website. As our customer base grew and our product range expanded to more serious numbers, so we grew up and became The Combat Company. This new incarnation came not only with new colour schemes and logos, but with a more refined outlook on our core values: Gaming should always be about the fun of playing a game and kicking arse. You should spend more time thinking about your army lists and strategies. You shouldn’t spend time thinking about how to save up enough money to make them a reality. We hope that by providing a really good range of gaming products at discounted prices that more people are encouraged to pick up gaming and have a go. We will always match the prices of our domestic competitors. We will ship in-stock products with a 1 to 3 day turnaround. If we don’t have something in stock, we’ll make sure to contact you and let you know when it’s coming in. We do free freight on orders over $100. We sponsor clubs and events – we do great deals on big orders and prizes. How you can get The Combat Company to sponsor Your Events When we’re not running The Combat Company, we’re gaming. We take a real interest in gamers and supporting the gaming community. We do our best to show up to local and national events. We sponsor and attend gaming tournaments as retailers. Where we can, we compete (with mixed results!). We sponsor clubs all around Australia and we’re actively involved in starting new clubs. If you’re interested in getting us at your event, drop me an email at Russell@thecombatcompany.com.au Get in Contact with The Combat Company You can find us at our website http://www.thecombatcompany.com.au You can follow us on Twitter: @combatcompany You can like us on Facebook:The Combat Company If you need to get in contact immediately, feel free to email us: russell@thecombatcompany.com.au We offer up to 30% off the following products (and you can always ask for a better deal!)

Love these guys ... especially their 40k bits. If people want to order individual 40k bits without having to buy the box, these are the guys to go to ... PLUS they are Australian based.
Got all my bits from my last order sent to me in less than a week. -------------------- Melbourne WARGAMING Facebook Group ...

Combat Company have been a real boon to Sydney and ACT tournies. Russell supported Lords and set up his stall at the venue offering us great discounts for prize vouchers (so we got a discount on top of their already competitive discounts!).
I can't recommend them highly enough. I am quite certain a lot of Lords players took advantage of the great deals Combat Company offers, including an extra discount for orders made to pick up at my event (I believe he does this for most events). Was good having the stall at our tourney all weekend, it even drew in business from visiting gamers plus the TO - I finally plunged and bought a Dystopian Starter set. I expect to expand my FSA with purchases from these guys. Win win - great for lords, and hopefully was great for Russ's bottom line. Great to deal with, I look forward to dealing with Russ again real soon as I top up my gaming needs for various systems. -------------------- Official ACADEMIC LEMMING Lords of Terra 2013 will run 20th & 21st July, 2013 Venue Blacktown Bowl 6th Edition NO COMP!!!!! 1500pts, NO IA armies but "40K approved" units are allowed- may include allies and/or a fortification as per rules 50% Battle!

Russ and TCC have been supporting my endevours for about the last 2 and a bit years. In that time they have supported over ten events that I have run and are earmarked to support everything in 2012 (Another 6 events).
TCC offers the best prize support for events within Australia. TCC also offers extra discount to ADF members that are part of our newly established(ing) ADF Wargaming Association. If you are ADF and for some crazy reason have not heard about the ADFWGA and are keen on extra discouints from a company that already has great low prices please feel free to PM me or email me ww40k@hotmail.com This post has been edited by Poomba: Nov 15 2011, 07:34 PM -------------------- WW40k Australia

Best bitz seller I've used. Multiple orders of many, many bitz at a time over the past 12 months, and every one has been accurate. Not to mention quick. Highly recommend these guys.

I would recommend the CC as well. Ive only purchased one lot from them so far, but all my new GW purchases will be coming from the CC now.
-------------------- Leela: wow, aren't you Zapp Brannigan? you stopped the fleet of kill bots, right? how did you do it?
Zapp: it was simple really. Kill-bots have a preset "kill limit", once they reach this limit, they shut down. knowing their weakness, i just sent wave after wave of our own men into battle against them, once they killed them all, they were effectively shut down. |
