Warmaster - what are the most current rules and FAQs?
« on: January 20, 2015, 10:55:02 PM »

Hi

Do you guys know what the most current and best ruleset is these days?
Is it this one, all the pdfs from basic rules 1+2, faqs, warmaster armies + armies faq and trial rules. 6 pdfs total?
http://wm-selector.appspot.com/army_selector.html?list=highelf

Or are there other important addendums and FAQs? Or more complete rules?

I have the old warmaster rulebook but not sure if the above changes any of that and never did a page by page comparison.

I would love some detailed input to these questions!

Cheers

PDFs are most up-to-date. Some errata is already in them, but not all of it as compared to the rprint book.

Sorry, no, rulebook is oldest. It has no errata. PDFs are newer, having some errata. Both require the separate errata PDFs however (rulebook more so). There is a living Warmaster PDF out there, it supposedly has it all but I have never checked and don't know who put it together.

but when you say errata - there is also faq / errate on wm-selector site - is that enough?

That errata on the selector site is the errata I'm talking about. That's all of the official stuff.

Great thanks!!

I have sent all pds to a print shop, so I can have a rulebook with everything incl. Rulebook part I & II, FAQ, Warmaster Armies, Armies FAQ and Warmaster Trial Armies. All six pdfs together in one simple print with a plastic spiral, but nice to have collected, I think.

Shall pick up tomorrow for a 3000 pts. game Friday.

The Errata are designed so that you can cut out the particular paragraphs and glue it into the rulebook. I did it with my own printed version and it fit perfectly.

I'm afraid that scanning would take much more time than cutting and gluing
Besides you can find the errata implemented in this so-called LRB

Yeah I was just kidding about that though.

The LRB - I actually asked a while back but no one seem to know if it is correctly updated and most recent or not...

Ah, that's Republic's Fury's site. I'm assuming he put it together then. He was on this forum a year and a half ago, posted a few times, talked about playtesting and doing a big thing at a convention down in Texas, was made a mod, and then promptly dropped off of the face of the forum. Again, no idea what's in the LRB on that site.

I talked about doing something like this for Warmaster like I did for Epic: http://tp.net-armageddon.org

Didn't get a whole lot of interest though.

That's great!

I think it would make entry easier for new players. To have a sticky in the forum explaining rules, rule revisions and history, most popular fan based rules and that sort of thing...

That looks excellent Dave.

Warmaster should be easier to manage that way, as it has far fewer rule changes than Epic.
