No the gang rules came with each of the Gang War books (Gang War 1 for the Esher and Goliath, Gang War 2 for the next gang etc, etc).

The main gripe comes with the fact that to buy the gang rules for the Delaques, GW aren’t releasing another “mini rule book” at 15 quid. Instead you need to buy the more expensive compilation to access the rules for this gang (those that have already shelled out for the previous Gang War books can’t complete the rules by purchasing just the Delaque rules).

The compilation is probably needed, but I hope they don’t copy and paste from the previous Gang War books. Even in the same books the GW proof readers missed things like not maintaining consistency for points values WITHIN THE SAME BOOK (they were a nightmare). But “annoyed” at GW’s decision to put out TWO books (one with the gang rules and one with the main rules), as I feel these aren’t separate from each other (I mean why collect the different gangs if you aren’t going to use the rules for them, and the “basic” version of the rules that don’t use the “advanced rules” (inc specific rules for different gangs) are well….VERY BASIC (so don’t know how mang pages the “main” rules book is going to be, it must have a lot of filler pictures 😀 ).

With all the love that GW got recently, and the feeling they have stopped doing some of their old nasty habits. They do seem to have slipped backwards into their old marketing mode on this release.
