It's completely fine for a £70 book that has been delayed for a couple of years to "get it right" to have errors in it that would be unacceptable in an Alpha PDF from any other game company. It's completely fine for random chinese recasters to have better QA than ForgeWorld at half the price. Money isn't real. Life is suffering. Drink your ovaltine.

I actually think those are easter eggs. But that doesn't excuse the other editing issues.

I can believe that having a couple pics of friends or FW crew hidden in the pages of the books being a purposefully included joke. FW still needs to hire someone who knows how to read, and just flip over the pages a couple times. When I, someone who's around 40% illiterate can find dozens of typos and proofreading errors after just skimming a new release of a $100+ book, somethings gone wrong.

To be fair with the jetbikes, it says that you can add a weapon option on top of the bolt cannon, so you'd have two weapons to fire. I think? Who the gently caress knows.

You're right - someone was tired during that frantic cut and paste job of photos borrowed from friends and the Internet.

Also look at the wording for the weapon upgrade. It says the Squadron (plural) may upgrade its Bolt Cannon (singular) for a flat price. Is it one upgrade per bike or per squadron? No idea.

I don't know what all you guys are bitching about; it's not like FW delayed this thing for years to get it right. I blame the fans for forcing them to rush it to print. The fans and the media. And maybe Obama too, while we're at it.

I was on my phone and it was difficult to add additional quotes in one post. I wasn't trying to flood the board. As for shilling for GW and Mouse Pads... whatever. I thought this was a thread about GW things. I happen to like GW things. I happen to LIKE the MacroMats and thought it would be a cool thing to share with people.

I love forgeworld, I really do as my various Titan class models that look pretty on my desk can attest, but they really need some editing and proofreading, take the Secutarii Axiarch HQ. It has a field generator that only works with 5+ models with the generator, it does not have the IC special rule despite being clearly designed to join one. I've yet to get a reply to my email asking about it  :e heresy is still cool and good, 30k best k Hencoe fucked around with this message at 20:58 on Feb 28, 2017 |

There's a big difference between staying positive, and choosing to be willfully blind to some pretty egregious problems with a product from a company you worship. Inferno has some horrendous, and frankly, unacceptable errors in it. Expecting more from a book with its cost is not unreasonable.

When I spend actual hundreds of dollars on a couple books, books that have beautiful artwork, guilded pages, metal-tipped corners to prevent wear and tear, I have a weird expectation that the words included got at least a little bit of proofreading before they hit the printer. I don't think anyone here is saying you're not allowed to like it or ignore the beauty of the books. Just as consumers we deserve a little bit of respect in the form of making sure something is of passible quality before it is sold to us.

I think you're all a little nuts for paying $100 for a book about toy soldiers that requires you to buy additional $100 books just to use it.
