I ain't paying £50 for a set of rules!

I agree it's expensive, but it's really no different than ANY other 600 pg. book on the market (in any industry, mind you). Granted, you can get some on Amazon for cheaper due to discount, but I don't think it's that much.

Then again, after getting my first FW book, I realized how high the production quality was, how much time went into crafting every detail of them, and realized they were, in my mind, worth the $60.

Ye gads, that's over $70 Canadian. I was going to use 8th as an entry point into Fantasy, but that just isn't happening.

Seen it, worth it, buying it.

i will 'LOL' if they make the mini-rulebook a 'rules-lite' situation (as they call it, they planned on doing this originally) because then you'd be really screwed.

As far as price comparison goes with other large books, I think that is reasonably priced. In fact, for a full color book that's 600 pages that's pretty good compared to some books I had to buy when I was in college. And my college text books weren't half as fun to read However, waiting for it to be cheaper on Ebay is definitely a good option if you low on cash. There is nothing wrong with looking for a deal.

I just pre-ordered the Gamer's Edition, Engineer's Ranging Set, and Battle Magic Cards. There's not a lot to spend your money on when you are in the desert lol.

Too true lol

Edit: So much for being bored and having a little extra cash on hand. I just pre-ordered the Collector's Edition of 8th as well lol

My Gods!
I just popped onto the main website this morning (since it's pre-order day).

I was looking forward to this, really looking forward to it.
But its $90 here in Canada. Ninety-freakin- dollars, plus tax (at 15% that puts it over a hundred). I'm not putting down that kind of money right now, even though this edition looks really fun.

I'll just wait for the Island of Blood release, and hope for a minibook (I mean, only 175 pages are actual rules, the other 300+ are all fluff sections). When I want to spend that kind of money for fluff, I'll go to Black Library, thank you very much.
