WH40K Wrath & Glory Is Here!

As of right now, you can pick up the Warhammer 40K: Wrath & Glory core rulebook PDF from Cubicle 7 if you pre-order the hardcover (which is expected to ship this Autumn).

UPDATE -- you can also pick up the PDF on DriveThruRPG, and if you previously purchased the Ulisses version of the book, it will be automatically updated for you for free there.

The PDF on DrivethruRPG has been updated. You do not have to pre-order the physical book to get a copy.

Ooh, that’s good news! Is that the old Ulisses one updated to this new one?

I believe so, yes. Others have received an update email for their Ulisses purchase and the Core rules are certainly Cubicle 7 (just purchased it myself, no pre-order).

FInally, we get a digital version. Woe betide the many who invested in the earlier Ulisses North America collector's edition. Luckily, I dodged that bullet during GenCon pre-orders.

Now the wait for the hard copy in the third quarter, hopefully.

Yes, the advantage of the digital world.

It is those who purchased the rare black leather book that was marketed by Ulisses North America as the premier collectors edition at GenCon. The other variant, the faux leather red one has crashed in price now.

So few comments on this much awaited revision to the Warhammer 40,000 RPG. So sad.
All publishers not producing D&D 5th Edition might as well just close shop at this rate.

Comment away then! What do you think of it?

I think that the original design by Ulisses Spiel using d6 dice pools was pretty smart, since many of the miniatures players of Warhammer 40,000 already have buckets of d6 dice.

Of course, there are some aspects that I did not enjoy, like the flat weapons damage, with just one or two dice added for variety. For traditional role players, from the dominant D&D play pool, having swings in damage dice has come to be expected.

Also, the layout and indexing left a lot to be desired, but, fortunately, the Revised Edition of Wrath and Glory by Cubicle 7 Entertainment fixed. that.

Another, gripe was trying to squeeze as much lore of the Warhammer 40,000 universe into one book, to showcase its breadth, leaves very few career options fully fleshed out, when compared to the earlier Fantasy Flight Games of Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Death Watch and Only War. However, those games suffered the poor d100 dice resolution at high levels and very low levels. of play.
