How do!

Just picked up my copy of the Votann Codex, courtesy of Chaos Cards, my FLGS.

Flicking through it for now (proper read being done after work), and my page 68 is blurred. It’s still legible thankfully, but I was wondering if anyone else has this issue? From familial familiarity with printing, it looks like the paper slipped on the plate my a fraction of a millimetre. It’s the sort of issue where you feel you’re a few pints in, and perhaps it’s time to put the book down.

Anyone else?

I don't know how to properly describe it in english, but the two people that bought the codex which had no miss prints, but had those wierd page corners, that look as if a machine took a bigger pice of paper, cut it wrong,and because the paper was folded for some reason, some of the page corners can be extended , for lack of better words from me. It looks wierd. Also the pages with colour art on it feel oddly , again lack of words in english to describe it on my side, gressy and sticky. To a paint where the pages make a distinct non paper on paper sound, when you try to turn them. But that is just two books out of thousands GW made.

That’s just a trimming error. Common enough and can be tricky to catch.

If pages feel tacky, could just be a varnish or ink not being quite dry before finishing. Dunno if leaving it open on those pages well help though.

A more thorough flick through suggests it’s just this one page. No biggie for me as the chances of me using the book in anger are super slim, and thankfully it’s not background!

Sounds like an opportunity to check if GW's customer support is still up-to-scratch!

To be honest, it’s not that big a deal to me. It is still legible, and oddly given how these pages are printed, I can’t find any other wonky prints.

Complain that you can't use it in tournaments, as the TO will think it's a bad attempt at cheating.

That involves collecting and painting an army, learning the game and getting halfway decent. Doable, but reluctant.

Deal Breaker is having to go places and….meet people. Eeeeewwwwwwww.
