How can I put this? Any and All WARHAMMER & WARHAMMER 40K Codex's and Army Supplement Books are double-edged swords. What do I mean? I'll tell you.

A Blessing & a Curse,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Warhammer Armies : Skaven (Paperback)
How can I put this? Any and All WARHAMMER & WARHAMMER 40K Codex's and Army Supplement Books are double-edged swords.What do I mean? I'll tell you. Whenever they release a new Codex/Source Book, the excitement is there. The stories told within the book, the short vignettes, the hazy black and white illustrations, and yes - even the photographs of the painted models designed with each codex in mind, make for a great read, and a welcomed addition to your WARHAMMER Army. So the book in and of itself is great. But then.... Games Workshop goes and does something akin to what a drug dealer might do; they get you hooked on their product, they make it so that this codex in your hands is the ONLY way to play that particular race of beings in their world. They get you to purchase all the miniatures in the book, along with the brushes and paints (because you can only use GW products for their battles - its in the rules). Then, about a year and a half after purchasing their merchandise, they release a NEW codex which cites that all of the old rules and models are obsolete, and cannot be used in conjuncture with their 'new' rules. So, you must purchase the 'new' codex/Source book, new models, new paints, etc... etc... After a while, the only thing your WARHAMMER books become any good for is your own personal enjoyment, as they become useless as gaming instruments. In my opinion, if you like owning the books because they bring you pleasure, then by all means - get them. But, if you have not already been lured into GW's web of revamps, reissues and upgrades, save your money and your sanity and just go collect something else.
