I have purchased 2 of the enhanced edition codexes which are portable and are easy to navigate to to get the rules. And the points get updated. I’d rather stick with those but I think GW Will get rid to try and move you onto the app

I may start buying the codex's again if this becomes common enough for the prices to not be crazy.

Chaos marines players: "Since when are Daemonengines 30k models and why do i have NO droppods now?"
GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!"
Chaos players: Guess i stop playing or go to HH. |

I'm not sure if its confirmed, but the recent WarCom article on the new codexes implied to me that the only digital version would be the in app version.

They confirmed that on their Facebook. No official digital other than the app.

Unbelievable really I wouldn’t mind so much if the app was better but really I don’t have a lot of shelf space and buy all my books digitally. I assum it’s a tactic to focus our attention on the app as they will say no more need for chapter approved as points will be adjusted in the app. Will backfire if they don’t make the app much better quickly

Well, I went ahead and finally downloaded the app for a quick look, ahead of getting the new Marine Codex next week.
I have to say it's... kind of what I was expecting, and certainly what's been described - but I'm still a little underwhelmed. I'm now thinking, rather than actually using the code to see what that's like, I may well wait for videos of others using it along with how the army builder shakes out. And if they're still underwhelming? That way, I still haven't used that code.
Not exactly a great start for the app.

The code will be exactly the same I assume. Just the new rules other than the old. I’d be surprised if it was any different.
