RUMORS: 40k 5th – Gamers Edition

< 1

May 1 2008

Hi all,
Whispers on the tubes speak of another deluxe version of the 5th Edition rules being released alongside the standard hardback. Something referred to as the “Gamer’s Edition”. Contents are said to include:

-The 5th Ed Rule Book
-Green game templates (similar in color and construction to the Apocalypse templates)

-Counters and markers (including a turn indicator, run markers, vehicle damage markers, etc…)

-It come packaged in some type of green “Ammo Crate” that has a top handle and can be used as an army transport (it may fit foam trays)

Rumored price: $90 usd

~Caveat Emptor as usual folks, but thats a pretty good deal if you basically get an army transport box out of it. I’m also happy to see those plastic counters and markers. Now I won’t have to shell out for one of those $30 giant dice to use as a turn marker like lots of folks use! In general it seems to be following in the footsteps of the awesome Apocalypse Gamers Edition with the backpack (which I still drag back and forth to work every day).

Don't Miss:
