It’s official, we finally have new FAQs from Games Workshop! Come see all the new erratas, clarifications and FAQs for Warhammer 40k.


The new FAQ Situation was a hot mess, as someone at Games Workshop appeared to be asleep at the wheel by releasing updates to e-Books nearly a week ahead of hard copy PDFs.

Quite frankly it seemed very much like a slap in the face to all of us hobbyists that have invested so much time and effort into the hobby to NEEDED these FAQs in the first place, and DIDN’T have e-books!

The links below to the “actual” FAQ pages that have been updated.

Dark Angels

Astra Militarum

Space Wolves

Orks

Dark Eldar

I’m glad that GW finally got these things rolled out, but man it’s hard to stay positive when they turned their backs on the FAQ’s for so long and then epic failed the roll out of the updates this week.  Let’s learn from our mistakes Games Workshop and make sure next time it’s a little better please.

What changes do YOU like so far?
