Hello everyone - sorry if this should be posted somewhere else or if there is already a thread for this;

I’ve been a big fan of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer maybe for the past…15 years? Oh lord I’m getting old.

Anyhoo, I love the lore and artwork that this franchise has built up, and I think that’s what attracts a lot of its players and fans.

Over the years new editions have come out, new army lists, new lore and other new developments. Over the years I’ve had to move around and donated some of my old rule books and codex’s to friends and family for them to get enjoyment out of it while my life changed.

I just think it would be great if Games Workshop sold high quality PDF’s of the old rule books, codex’s, white dwarf articles (or even old editions of white dwarf!), from right to the start.

I know I would pay for it, do you think other people will? Could be a way for them to make some cashola?

What do you guys think?

GW is currently avoiding releasing the majority of things electronically, and haven't given any reasons why (we suspect they think it's an anti-piracy measure).

If it's the mainly the fluff / lore you're interested in - have a look at Warhammer Vault.
