When can we expect the Errata?

Khel · Post by **Khel** » Fri Jul 02, 2010 8:03 am

As always, with each new edition of the Warhammer Rulebook being released, there are always those questions which are raised and squabbled over.

Has there been any word on when the errata for the 8th edition might be released? Or is there a trend which GW follows when releasing these sorts of things?

And if not, when would be a good time to speculate over?

I've heard errata will be released for each army on the GW site (in PDF format) on the day of the official release of 8th. Can anyone else confirm that?

i heard that the erratas would be released one per week in the weeks after the release this seems stupid to me but i heard it form a reliable source

Define "reliable".

I'll believe that when I see it. They're bound to have them all ready to go since most books are going to need big questions answered.

Those presentations are done by store grunts, they rarely know anything about what's going on behind the scenes.

Some people just want to create the illusion they know something instead of claiming ignorance.

I've heard repeatedly that faqs go live on day of release. (From several store managers)

Though there has been disagreement on which day is release day. 8th when pre-orders arrive or 10th when the stores start selling.

I think it only fair that someone else get the errata PDF and ships me a copy....

The rulebook isn't even out yet...

And please add a little more content in future, eh?

Speculation doesn't really help, anyways.

We will see them soon enough.

I'm reasonably sure, that they are already finished, because it's necessary for playtesting the new edition, so putting them online on the 10th, right when the book is available officially, seems like a logical choice.

I've heard from GW employees in 2 different stores. They both told me the web team does NOT work on Saturdays. I was told to expect FAQ's/ Erratas to be out anywhere form the 9th (Friday night) to early next week (12th-14th.)

Whilt it is very probable for them to be completed already, you never know. However, both store managers said they will most likely be available by the 10th. So I'm keeping my hopes up.

It's hard to spend the weekend writing lists at work, when the 2 armies you play have race specific magic lores (O&G and DE) But at least I can familiarize myself with the rules, and read the fluff.

in this GW post its says they have 3 different post coming tomorrow regarding 8th ed. Most likely one of the 3 will be the errata:

When can we expect the Errata?
