Full rulebook download- couple of questions...

[Judge Paul]

First of all, thank you so much to Mongoose for making these rules free to download

I downloaded the following: http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mongoosepublishing.com%2Fpdf%2Fjdmg.pdf&h=iAQHMHJhm

And have 3 questions:

1) Is this the same as the retail rulebook (the hardback one)?
2) Are the rules for lawmaster bikes in there somewhere? I have had a good read through and I can't find them
3) Also: are the rules for the dark judges in there somewhere? Or are the fact that these are missing just the excuse I need to treat myself to the lovely rulebook?

Thanks again!

Judge Paul

The rulebook is a revised and expanded version of the free download.

Rules for Lawmasters and Dark Judges are in the book. As are a whole lot of other cool stuff - vehicles of all kinds, Sov Judges, more talents, more characters, more scenarios.....

That said, the rules are virtually identical, so you can happily play with the free download.

Thanks for the reply Greg, much appreciated, it will put me on till the end of the month when I can afford to buy the rulebook and some models but for now I will take these to our club tomorrow night and proxy some gangs to get used to the rules

Thanks. I, too, have wondered what the difference was; something had to make up for the difference in 108 vs 240 pages. :>) Could you provide more details of what has been added?

And what is in the Academy of Law Training Guide?

 

[Greg Smith]

I assume the training guide is a quick start ruleset for the starter box.

Whats new:
Vehicles rules
Stats for Iron Lion, Pat Wagon, Banshee, Mo Pad, bikes, ground cars, trucks, Manta
Rules for Mobs
Brit Cit Judges
Cit Def
Nero Narcos & Assainator Droid for mobsters
Fats fan
East Meg invasion force
Apoc War resistance unit
Dark Judges
Zombie Horde
Demonic Cabal
Mini-bots
New talent trees, new talents
Mechanismos
Heavy Weapons Judge
New heores and villians
Blood on the streets campaign
Famous firefights
Judges of the world

Thanks for the info about the full rulebook contents. Much appreciated.

Can anyone confirm that The Academy of Law Training Guide is quick start rules? Or is it something else?

They are indeed a quick start - all rules concepts in about four pages!

I believe the retail rulebook is a combination of the downloadable rulebook and the Block War downloadable expansion.
