Nope.

Go on, make a scenario for yourself, you know you want to.

Is it too early to pre-order this supplement?

If I had to criticise Warlord (and I really don't want to), this would be it. They do seem to release models and rules at what appear to be random intervals. Whilst I have the BP rules, it would have been very nice to see some kind of starter rules included in the Rorke's drift set given the price tag.

Every Friday, I check my e-mail, eagerly awaiting the latest news from Warlord, but every week I am left with the feeling that everything was done kind of randomly rather than to any grand plan or scheme.

I am sure that I will pick up the AZW supplement to BP (and any others that they release) as and when WG see fit to publish it. As this is my first foray into the AZW, anything they release will be very useful. I just feel that the ball was dropped slightly by releasing an awesome starter set, but not releasing an equally awesome starter rules book to go alongside it.

If they did that, Paul would have to change his evil ways because he wouldn't be able to torment us so much with the little snippets he keeps posting about! :lol: :lol:

He does seem to enjoy that a lot. I would hate to see him lose his biggest source of fun on these forums. :lol:
