Can I get a pdf of the book?
Hi.
Hope a request like that won't violate any forum's rules - but has the latest rulebook (BB2020 2nd season) been already scanned, and where can I get the pdf?
I understand some ppl may find sharing it unethical, but I don't play tabletop (waiting for the Cyanide's coming BB3 game, which is expected to be based on the newest ruleset), and paying 150$ for the full tabletop version of the game is sort of overkill for me, when all I need is the rulebook. I just would like to study the new rules while I'm waiting for the digital version of the game.

Re: BB2020 Queries
Look for the leaked version from around August, but anyone posts a copy of the actual rulebook will probably get said post deleted.
Then just buy the rulebook; it's for sale separately. Look in your local game shop or gw direct.

TOs! You do not need multiple copies of rosters. It's a waste of paper.

Also, I've split from the thread you posted in as your query is not a rules question, and moved your post to General.

Re: BB2020 Queries
I have it (though it starts from around a page 20), just thought there may be a more recent and a more "neat" digital pdf version as of now..lunchmoney wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 7:03 am Look for the leaked version from around August, but anyone posts a copy of the actual rulebook will probably get said post deleted.
We don't have their shop in our country.. And it costs 30-50$ on their site, that's about as much as I'll pay for the digital version of the game next year, just to read the rules in advance.. A bit too much overpay, for me.lunchmoney wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 7:03 am Then just buy the rulebook; it's for sale separately. Look in your local game shop or gw direct.

Re: BB2020 Queries
You can get the pdf/e-pub from gw direct. As it's a digital download I doubt the country matters too much, but something for you to check yourself.
Well, piracy is free to you and you already have it. You want a better copy? Get it legally.

Re: BB2020 Queries
Note sure this book and the consequences it brings is worth the money really. Not exactly stellar quality either. The expiration date for GW books are a bit milk-like. Would suggest getting it for free instead.

Re: BB2020 Queries
Unless i'm reading it wrong, but this just seems to be a case of, "I don't want to pay the cost of the book as it isn't worth that much to me. Can someone who HAS paid the cost of the book send it to me for free"?.Mori-mori wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 10:49 amI have it (though it starts from around a page 20), just thought there may be a more recent and a more "neat" digital pdf version as of now..lunchmoney wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 7:03 am Look for the leaked version from around August, but anyone posts a copy of the actual rulebook will probably get said post deleted.

As already mentioned, buy digital if you have concerns about shipping. Or not at all, if you don't think something is worth the cost given to it you aren't obliged to buy it. Welcome to capitalism.

Yep, that's it. Or, more exactly, "if somebody have an illegal copy of such rulebook they got somewhere and don't care much about all that ethic crap revolving around copyrights laws, pls share it". If you don't think you can help with the request, you're not obliged to answer.

Re: BB2020 Queries
Which seems a bit of a turn around to your post in October? You are find with giving everyone access to the book before it was published but not after? Not that it really matters with the number of YouTube videos showing the book if you want to read it for free you can just screen shot those and make your own PDF.lunchmoney wrote: ↑Sat Jan 16, 2021 12:01 pm And as mentioned already if you or anyone else posts a link to pirated copy of the full rule book it will just be deleted immediately.
I used them to get the stats for the Necromantic stars.

Well I assume someone told you off? I just find the difference in attitude amusing.

Re: Can I get a pdf of the book?
That and people are allowed to change their minds, yes?
I also feel there is a difference between sharing a leak from GW (even though I'm not anymore) and piracy of a legit bought pdf/e-pub book.

You are certainly allowed to change your mind. As for the second point personally I do not see any difference between sharing the two but then I am not sharing either but was very happy to read what you did post.
If it does make a difference I have purchased the box set and the rule book is on the shelf next to me.

If it makes a difference, I bought a ton of books, cards, pitches and magazines for the previous edition, and now I'm not.
