With the Maelstrom's Edge V2 rulebook heading out into the world, we want to make sure that the new rules are accessible to everyone who wants to try the game out. With that in mind, we have added free PDF downloads for all of the V2 rules onto the Maelstrom's Edge website! A PDF is obviously not as pretty as a shiny hardcover tome, but it does provide a handy reference, and the downloads also give you access to some extras to make your gaming easier.
The downloads include a PDf version of the rulebook, which has the core rules, the background bits from the Universe section, and the additional rules from the Appendix. There is an Errata & Changelog document, which lists any changes we need to make to the rules. This currently includes a couple of small corrections to errors we've spotted in the print book, which have been incorporated into the PDF version of the rules. This document also has a list of the version numbers of all of the current unit entries. The unit rules entry pages have been split out into separate documents for each faction, so you can grab and print the ones you need for your force. This also gives us the ability to update individual units if that becomes necessary, and also means we can add in new units by including them in these downloads.
You can also find a 'Cards & Tokens' document, which includes printable versions of all missions and objectives, and also the page of tokens from the back of the rulebook - later on, we'll also be releasing some 3D printable versions of the tokens, and we're looking at a print-on-demand option for the cards.
You can find all of these documents in the Rules section of the Maelstrom's Edge website
here. While you're there, grab your copy of the rulebook from the
webstore!
If you have any thoughts on the new rules, pop on over to the
Comm Guild Facebook group, or start up a thread in the
Maelstrom's Edge section on the Dakka Dakka forums. We welcome any feedback, and would love to hear how everyone's forces stack up in the new rules!
