So after having a many discussion on this in a different thread....I figured I would ask for a poll of who would be down for Forgeworld to release rules for individual units from their IA books? For example, Wraithseer, Fireraptor, Fellblades, etc
They could have a voucher when you purchase said model or have them available for download...

I would only buy digital interactive versions in a heart beat. I like how they work. I can bring so many books in one small iPad.
Plus I don't have to wait 2 weeks to get it in the mail
PS, eBook versions are practically PDF formats. Unless you mean the interactive version.

I don't particularly care how you have your rules.
Whether it's actual book, photocopy of said pages, pdf (legal or otherwise) and printouts, or a legit ebook copy.
As long as you HAVE them in a format I can read. If this means me borrowing your ipad so I can check something, so be it - make sure your ipad is beer spill proof.
(Because I might forget ipads have a legitimate use aside from as a coaster).

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

what a kind soul. i for one would love the option to have them on my ipad, and because sadly there is morons out there who think it cool to rest drinks etc etc on them i also want a stainless steel case for it so i can thump people who lack the correct respect for my property. i have no issue with anyone asking to check my ipad for rules..but respect that its worth about as much as your 1000pt army. sorry for quoting you, but it was there to be done. i see this kind of comment in every thread where ipads come up and others being near them comes into it.
my vote goes to the ibook etc etc for them, ill take the 30k HH series today please... even though i have the first 2 in print. aslong as GW dont decide to charge them at the same cost as those FW books... they be pricey ones

Huh? Forgeworld offers downloadable rules als .pdf allready. They have single units as well as the current revisions of IA army lists. Forge is doing a good job, unlike GWs "buy this 5€ dataslate to filed this 40€ miniature"

No what I mean is that instead of asking individuals to but a £50 book for all of the rules for all of the races.....is instead offer them the option to buy individual rules for the Forgeworld units they own....Forgeworld is kind of a niche

I'm iffy. Forgeworld tends to come in huge, wonderful to read but goddamn it if they aren't heavy tomes.
If they released their army lists in an epub format I would jump on them like a dog to a piece of bacon.
