    Born of hyper-sensitivity. It was one bloody correction. By all mean complain about the mess that was the Dark Angel book, but getting cranky over one wargear entry being corrected is just stupid.
    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    It's hardly even that, it is a correction to the reference section. Obviously every where else in the book the entry if fine.

    I'll take pre-emptive FAQs over the "wait a year and we'll think about it" approach of yore, no question.

    Also, this is why I only buy digital Codexes anymore. That error won't even be there when my copy downloads, and I'll get automatic updates...you know, during the next five or six rounds of revision.

    Why... why are the other three pages blank?

    I'd say the reference section is the one place that should be absolutely correct. Wasn't for Tau, either. If you're going to put all the important info in one easily-found place, it should be the right info!

    Probably why they put out a correction so quickly don't you think?

    That's the odd thing with mistakes, you don't get to choose where they turn up.

    You have to have won one of GW's secret mystery decoder rings they add to random sprues to read the other pages.

    You do get to choose where you concentrate your proof-reading efforts, though.

    I do a weird form of data entry for a living, and I know to double-check everything but quadruple-check the important bits.

    Which bits of a Codex the important bits? All of it I would say. It's a big job, mistakes happen, deal and move on.
