Hi,
I noticed on GW's site that they have updated the iBook version of the Space Marine Codex to the new Edition. Has anyone gotten any insight to the changes yet?

I try a educated guess and predict that they included the rules for the Stormtalon in the new version.
Look upon us and Despair, for we are the End, the Decay of all things, the horror of rot and the blessing of plague.

The first version already did.
The updated version has all the new rules in the references (like shred for lightning claws or unwieldy for power fists). So it is completely up to date with 6th. Nice of GW to update it for free, although it should be for this initial price.
This was mentioned in the other thread (this one will be closed soon) but to recap: If you've already bought the SM iBooks codex, delete it then redownload to get the update. Hopefully Apple will sort out a better updating procedure in iOS 6.
Just done the above and now have an updated, 6th Ed Compatible, SM Codex on my iPad.
Thank you GW.

And some memorable quotes: 'Never forget that the entire point of this game is shooting girly elves.' (Dr Potamus); 'Hooray, it's another sunny day on WhineSeer.' (Darnok); 'this might shock you, but even this hobby is filled with idiots...'(Botjer)
Is it worth it?

Huh. Stuff like this makes me consider an iPad and eCodexes. Is there any way to print the rules out?
@unholy1: If you already have the physical book, probably not.
@Sophet Drahas: There is no way to print directly. However you can take screen shots, save them to a computer, and print from the image files.
The big question of course - does the updated codex now include skyfire missiles as an option ?
It doesn't.
Eldar - Fear The Rainbow!
My Eldar Painting Log (including Revenant/Phantom/Super Heavies) or direct gallery - random selection of 16 years painting Eldar
Same question here...
Will stop the debate once and for all!
/end of debate

Blood Angels painting soon...
According to updated SM Codex...
Relic Blade is Str +2 instead of the old strikes at strength 6.
Sicarius' Talassarian Tempest Blade - The str 6, coupe de grace attack is AP2.
It's a great product. Just bought the Necron one too, and that is also updated for 6th.
Warscythes Are Str +2, AP1 and have Armour Bane SR......... AP1!!!!

Why so serious?
That's different from the FAQ on the website, isn't it? I'm not seeing any of that come up, at least. This could get interesting...
...and a little help comes in a little glass vial in a gun pressed against her anatomy...
You can always file off your nipples, it's easily done.
TBH - I haven't paid much attention to the FAQ. I will have a look now though!
I know one thing for sure - ALL GW Rules products have to be on the same page - or we've got no chance at interpreting the damn things!
Why so serious?
Yep - very true.
Not in FAQ.
Will maybe make it into 1.1
Why so serious?
Disagree.
easiler than having the book, white dwarf for fliers and faq. All the rules in one place on one items. Especially when you play SM and your oponent plays Necrons.

Or better yet, hopefully GW will put out digital releases that don't require iSmeg products.
My self within the dark. No... The darkness within me.
Fātum est aeternum. Tōta animī lacrimae pro salūs. Ibi est haud salūs sine dolor.
Yep, only thing preventing me from picking it up is the Apple exclusive platform / format, so far.
seems like a sound business tactic right there: don't provide a rule for ground based troops to fend off fliers, so that you need a flier to defend against other fliers. Once they've sold enough, then the AA rules and models will arrive
