And THAT is how they fuck you over....

General
Warhammer 40k. I loved the new edition. Looked spiffy. Great rules, price was cheaper then it's been...But now they've gone and soured it.
They are releasing codexes that will supersede anything in the index books that they put out just this past month. So...there goes another $50 per book for the factions you enjoy so much...and of COURSE the rules are gonna be better in the codexes for the individual factions...making the index books nice and useless. And it pisses me off incredibly that they would pull a bait and switch like this. even more then just changing the rules every fucking few years. I think I am gonna just collect the miniatures from now on. Cause frankly, this bait and switch tactic is pure unmitigated BULLSHIT. No matter how shiny and pretty it looks. To pull something like this on people with limited enough means as is? Congratulations, Games Workshop...You proved to me once again how low and despicable you scummy bastards truly are. You have learned NOTHING. I am returning my indexes. What use are they now? I'd rather have the full fucking codex. Or better yet, i'd rather have the $50 so I can get an external disk drive or a new backup drive for this computer....or the start of a scanner.
Ugh. I'm fuming now. The past two days...just...ugh.
Edit: I returned the two indexes Nynaeve bought on launch day. We have them both digitized on his tablet and my phone. >.> We're gonna use the money for a new external disk drive so we can use the copy of manga studio we have, then put a little extra into a backup drive. When the codexes we use actually come out? MAYBE we will purchase 'em.

Collecting the miniatures is arguably even worse given the cost per mini and derpy quality from everything I've seen.
From what I hear, the new Codexes will only be $25 each. Not that it makes much of a difference. Selling us the indexes and THEN trying to sell us a codex on TOP of that? If there was going to be two years between the releases, that would be one thing, but this short of a time span? Feels like they're just trying to gouge us.

The hype was real, but they didn't mention that they were referring to the Core Rules.
I'm sorry you got dicked over with it, but a friend showed them to me and I also saw a boatload of formatting issues with them, anyway.
Did people get a refund?
