All of the books should come with a sleeve for the FAQ/Errata to be stored in.

They didn't answer most of my questions.   What weaponskill does an exarch have?  How many points does it cost to upgrade to a Suncannon?  etc.

Come on, give them a break.  When they are only charging 50$ for a book it is not like they can afford editors and proofreaders.

Besides, they have to go through 200 pages.  No human can do that alone.

Better they catch an error and fix it, rather then leave it unattended for months. This is common in video gaming industries too.. Sony, EA, and Blizzard have also patched games immediately before releases.

Y'know, I don't care.  They're charging $50 for hardcover books most of us don't actually want, they can institute some fricking quality control.  A videogame is beast of actual complexity.  A codex your average teeenage geek can go through and say "that's unclear, that's unclear, I'm pretty sure that says the opposite of what they want it to say".

There's no legitimate excuse.  Please don't try to make one.

The FAQ looks like some kind of forum post.

First of all, that kinda answer is sorta unhelpful.

Second of all....yeah that's what happens, eventually.

I'm not buying a wraith knight. It really doesn't matter how awesome it's rules are (doesn't actually look that awesome).  Enough is enough.

I like the hardcover books but the price tags are certainly getting out of control.  IT would be nice if they gave us the $30 soft option or something.

Wraithknight is insanely over priced compared to all of its counterparts and its a stupid move.  I unfortunately lack self control and I intend to get one if I feel it will be useful.

That's easy 120 kroot with sniper rounds. That's only 840 points, doesn't really matter what the rest of points are spent on :)
