40K Mini-Rulebook Released

Posted by Son of Dorn at 8/23/2013 04:58:00 PM

The previously announced 40K mini-rule book is finally here and up on the Games Workshop New Releases page.

Here's what Games Workshop has to say about it:

"The Warhammer 40,000: The Rules has been specifically designed to be the gamers ideal companion. Don't let its size fool you - measuring a convenient 205mm x 150mm, this handy book contains the complete rules for Warhammer 40,000.

Created with gamers in mind, the three ribbon bookmarks - in silver, black and grey - are perfect for those rules you always refer to.

This premium full colour volume with its tactile, soft-touch hard cover and black page edges, is not only useful, but looks great too.

In addition to the Warhammer 40,000 rules, this book's 168 pages contain:

- Sections on choosing your army and fighting battles.
- 6 Eternal War missions.
- A reference section that includes profiles for all army units, weapons and psychic disciplines.
- A game summary and complete index."

I have to admit, the 3 ribbons would be really handy...

At a price of almost $50, I'm not sure this will be a huge improvement over the starter set rules for many players. However, having the 3 bookmarks, and undoubtedly the FAQ updates included would be extremely handy for regular play. You can place an order for them here, if you're interested.

SandWyrm said...: $50? Really? Should be $30 tops, as the DV books go for $15 or so when resold.

Don't even get me started on the iPad version. :); August 24, 2013 at 7:19 AM
