As per the above topic, my LGS is having huge discounts for WHFB items. I'm not a miniature gamer but I do enjoy warhammer fiction.

I was wondering if it is worth getting the core rulebook or army books just for the fluff?

Thank you

Hmm in my opinion yes and no. I enjoy my 8th edition Empire book still, but I always wanted more from it.

Particularly the book goes into great length to tell the history of the Empire. But it's all incredibly boring for the most part.

I wanted to hear about the intrigue and plotting of the Imperial court, the dark underbelly of the Empire cities. The different cultures and sub cultures within - but it only skims the surface.

Still, there is interesting tidbits here and there, usually with some great artwork.

unless its just for kicks or fluff for FFG's IMO great rpg, then not really worth it. AoS pretty much tanks all the fluff
