A question about the rule book.

[The Harvester]

If I buy the current printing of the rulebook, are the errata corrected?

I know there is the 12 page errata/FAQ from GW with 4 pages of errata, and I am hoping the new printings include the changes. Can anybody confirm this for me?
Thanks

No it does not. You will still need the Errata Printouts.

[The Harvester]

Wow, that is really lame. Thank you for the quick reply.

Maybe a bit fatalistic, but if you want the rule book and the currently available version is the only one available, then what choice have you got?

I mean:

Flawed rule book + errata = game
No rule book + errata = no game

Pretty much a no-win situation, this.

I donst take much effet to print out the FAQ a use sticky labels to put them in,

also if GW was to rerelease the rules everytime they brought out an FAQ it would be bad bussiness sense as alot of stock would be out of date after 6 months to a year, other stockests wouldn't take such a tempromental product as they would be out of pocket.

THIS - until they have an electronic version of the rulebook...

Which leads to me to believe we may not see that day come as every hobbyist and their dog knows that the rule book gets FAQ all the time - so it's better to grab an electronic one that paper!

I wouldn't bet on that last part. Rumor has an electronic version of the 40K BRB being available for 6th Edition. (But no guarantees about keeping up with the Errata on that one).

Didn't they put out an erratad version of 6th in paperback at one point? I was just looking into the hobby in the middle of 6th, so I don't know.
