So how does everyone feel about introducing non-GW codex / Army Books into independent GTs?

I think its a great Idea as long the books have had serious play testing.

IT’S HERE! The Indy GT Dwarfs of Chaos Army Book

Below you will find the link to the new Indy GT Dwarfs of Chaos Army
Book, a complete, 96-page Army Book in the Games Workshop tradition.
The book—professionally written, designed, illustrated, and thoroughly
play tested—will be legal for use in participating Independent Grand
Tournaments. As of this writing, the Crossroads, Conflict, Colonial,
Destruction Derby, NEWCC, and War Camp GTs will allow the book as
legal, and we expect the number to grow with the publication of the
book.

About the authors
Written by Kevin Coleman. Kevin has been writing background and rules
for Warhammer for well over a decade with his work appearing in White
Dwarf Magazine, the Games Workshop Website and the Citadel Journal
including such articles as Gnoblars Hordes, the Dark Elf City Garrison
army list, Goblin Ecology, Mighty Champions and more. Kevin has also
worked as a games designer and writer for other games and magazines
including Fleer, Inc.’s customizable card game, Ophidian 2350.

Book design by award-winning graphic artist Matt Birdoff. Matt has
been a professional designer working in the entertainment industry for
over 15 years. His recent works include logos for DC Comics, sports
card designs for Topps, Inc., style guide design for Ringling Bros. &
Barnum and Bailey, The 39 Clues book and card series from Scholastic,
among others.

Additional background material and fiction by Justin Hill and Jarrett
Messing. Justin is the author of the Black Library novel Forged in
Battle (as Justin Hunter). His internationally acclaimed first novel,
The Drink and Dream Teahouse, won the 2003 Geoffrey Faber Memorial
Prize and a 2002 Betty Trask Award, and was banned by the government
in China. It was picked by the Washington Post as one of the Top
Novels of 2001. His second novel, Passing Under Heaven, won the 2005
Somerset Maugham Award and was shortlisted for the Encore Award.

Also Having read through this army book, I would like to say that it is a fantastic piece of work!

And GW will soon ruin all the fun by sending one of their cease and desist letters.

yup. They probably pulled the guy that was going to write the Chaos Dwarves army book from the studio and put him on Web site monitoring for Legal.

**Howard A Treesong**

Can't download it unfortunately. The page to get it looks like it's loaded and then suddenly turns into a 404 error which is a shame because I like Chaos Dwarves.

**radiohazard**

I've had this for 6 months.

Somebody posted this before.

**Mannahnin**

It's great.

They were very careful about legal. Kevin Coleman has had two army lists published in White Dwarf before (DE cityguard and Gnoblars), plus goblin variants.

My only slight reservation is that I don't think they were logistically able to do a lot of playtesting of it, but in addition to Kevin's prior WD credits, several of the people involved were playtesters for GW prior to them shutting down external.

Here is a daka link to the file. Please only use this if you can't download it from the people who created it.

**Howard A Treesong**

Thankyou very much. I was unable to use the download on their site for whatever reason, I'll enjoy reading!

Are there more similar books? I see a list on the last page of the file, but my google-fu is letting me down in finding anything else.

**H.B.M.C.**

Fan written books are written with the express purpose of creating powerful armies that contain equally useful units in all areas of the army.

GW written books are written with the express purpose of selling new miniatures, and making older lines sell more via pendulum game design.

The less GW books the better.

**Clthomps**

LOL. While the GW bit is 100% true, I have to say that this army book is a lot less powerful than, DE, VC, Or Daemons

**H.B.M.C.**

And who's fault is that?

**Dysartes**

Hmm - professionally done, but could've done with getting someone to proof-read it before release.
