The topic says it all, but I want to add a little more. I split the Hordes Starter Set with a friend. I got the rulebook from the starter set and the rulebook was hardly used at all because one of my friends knows all of the rules so we just asked him for help if we forgot something or didn't know. Now when I finally got to reading the Mini Rulebook certain pages started to tear from the binding until they came off. I am not rough with my books and I always make sure they are well taken care of, but the book fell apart as I read it and I always make sure to not fully open a book or bend the pages.

Is this a normal occurrence with their mini rulebooks? Do they just suck this bad with all of their books or did I get the off funky one? Do the Hard Cover books hold together well? I'm considering getting the Hard Cover rulebook, but I'm not 100% sold because of what just happened with my mini rulebook.

I have a hard cover Prime and a soft cover faction book, and both seem pretty well made to me, and they've held up through a fair bit of flipping through without anything falling off (and the Prime was second hand on top of that).

So either it's just the mini-rule book in general, or it's just the one you have is a bit dodgy. If I were you, I'd ask PP for a replacement - they're usually pretty good about that sort of thing.

upload a photo, fill out a form, see what they say.

Since most of you guys have had a good experience with their books it means either the mini rulebooks suck or I got a bad copy. I'll give this a shot. Thanks. I'll let you guys know what they say once I get a reply.

Seems like the mini rulebooks tend to be of ok quality and can fall apart. Hopefully Privateer Press replies soon, but from the warning on their website I don't see them responding anytime soon.

I thought I should let you all know that the status of my ticket has been changed to "Shipped" so I should be receiving a new rulebook sometime soon.

I just wanted to let you all know that PP sent me a new mini rulebook. So far this one is perfect. I love PP!
