FAQ bloat is definitely an issue. All rule changes should go in CA and the FAQ and errata should be a searchable online resource.

That would be a good solution too (once the rate of rule changes drops right off). Of course, having already replaced the indexes with codexes, replacing CA with a compendium might well rub a few gamers up the wrong way (again).

Or just buy the digital codex and rule book and they are updated with most of the changes.

I couldn't see any information on the GW website about digital codexes getting updates. Do both the ePub and Enhanced versions get automatically updated? You say 'most' changes. What updates aren't included?

Anyone know the answer to this?

Epubs have never been updated, even to fix things like LITERALLY MISSING rules in the Dark Angel codex. Enhanced ones have apparently been updated but I am not an apple fanboy so I don't own anything apple to see.

Well as someone who has a Samsung Galaxy and a Chromebook it seems like digital codexes wouldn't help me either...

Only if the Enhanced version actually gets all the updates...

At least each time you top up you can get all your fuel from the same pump

Have we taken the car analogy far enough now?
