I wouldn't bother reccomending this to new players unless there is a severe discount on price.
Trencher Cannon Crew isn't worth buying or playing.

The discount off msrp is only ~15%. Buying the models separately under DGI's rebate program even gives you about the same savings as buying the trencher box with the online stores' 15% discount.

There’s going to be a Gator box, too, apparently. There’s a note on one of the models in CID that it’s costed at 4 points in the box but is costed at 3 points right now in CID, or something like that.

What's this rebate you're talking about? This is the first I'm hearing of it. email jay@discountgamesinc.com to get full details; they can't advertise. Basically, if you spend 100+ on PP models at the normal discount (not battleboxes, used, on sale, etc) you get a 15% rebate towards your account.

So far, their Army Boxes post MK3 have been very meh. As others have said, it can be cheaper to buy individual models. And, if it's anything like the Northkin box, it;s not a stand alone force.

At least with the trencher box the difference is only $1 in DGI's favor after the rebate.
The troll box is much worse; assuming the standard 15% discount on both options the box only saves you $4 off buying the models piecemeal. With the DGI rebate its ~$20 cheaper to skip the theme box and buy the models separately.

I like the idea as an option to help expand a new player's collection as they mentioned in the deception that with the battle box it gives a 35 point army. I guess it depends on the models and the discount and by the sound of it it's not that great of a discount. I think we'll have to see how other theme boxes look when they make them.
