Just think positive: it's $10 less than the old book, and has three times more game info. I think v1 was 7 pages, $50. By far the silliest rule book I have ever bought.
Them again, my store was very kind, and gave me a new one for about $25USD (40% off) since I haven't stopped complaining about it for about a year
By the way, the new manual for the new IK it is awesome. It has datasheets with the load out costs for each variant.

I love the new manuals, they look amazing. its the little things but this new kit is straight up amazing, an appropriate price hike for what they have added for once.

It's the same price as the old book. As if GW would offer anything cheaper than what people have already paid for it in the past.

If I can give a tip for future videos. The brightly lit background (although scenic) means the camera doesn't pick up the presenters very well. A curtain to dull it down might help a bit.
I'm both orderly and rational. I value control, information, and order. I love structure and hierarchy, and will actively use whatever power or knowledge I have to maintain it. At best, I am lawful and insightful; at worst, I am bureaucratic and tyrannical.
I find passive aggressive messages in people's signatures quite amusing.

Oh, for some reason I thought the old IK book was a full price deal.
Nope! It's been a full year for that codex, can't give people any discounts at that point! They should just be glad they had the privilege of purchasing the book on the first go.
