The one thing I'd say about the digital version, it looks like a poor scan in some places, you can see some of the previous pages through others.

Hopefully, the print edition isnt like that.

Looking at mine, the only thing anything like that is the Legion of the Damned article; it looks like there's some "bleed", but it's hard to tell if it's the text on the other side of the page showing through or if it's genuinely a dodgy scan. Some of the text is perhaps a little fuzz due to being scanned then reduced in size, but I could be imagining it.

Mind you, I wouldn't be surprised if they had to ask round the office to see if anyone owned a copy of that WD for them to scan!

Is it worth getting?

I'm tempted, this time around...

If you're a fluff lover and/or have played 40K for years then it certainly is

I saw two copies on the shelf at my local GW.

I keep checking the GW US site - nothing!

Does anyone know if this will be available there soon...or....ever?

No idea. I don't think they've even formally announced it being restocked on the UK site.

Edit: It is sold out again on the UK store.

Glad I nabbed a copy. Maybe it was excess stock from somewhere?

It is not. The print version looks better than my originals in most cases

If only GW US would stock it again?

Our store - U.S. - just got some last week, so they have to have some clunkin around somewhere.

Nice! I picked one of these up. It is a really great collection of Space Marines articles and old codex/rulebook stuff.

There is a neat piece in there about how they built the Land Raider too -- starting with a 2:1 scale model for the chassis and 3:1 with the weapons, then tracing it with a pantomime machine (for the game version), making negatives, etc.

There is even a picture of the big scale model beside a regular land raider

I feel you might have meant a pantograph machine, I don't know that a pantomime machine could quite accomplish the task.

My order on the UK site got refunded as there was no stock. Not sure if there was any more to begin with.

I ordered during the brief window when it popped on the site again and I did get mine.

It's still not available on the US site? What gives?

I may have missed it but Index Astartes: Apocrypha is available again, in the UK at least. Now in softback form:

..so it's for sale in the UK again anyway....
