Maelstromgames are giving the NEW 3rd edition mini A5 rulebook away with any Flames order - sounds like a bargain to me.

you can also get it from Wargames Workshop in Northampton by producing a hardback copy of the current rulebook and without buying anything i believe

Check out flames of war website for full low down on getting your copy. they are only sending sellers enough books ti replace hard copies they have sold so not sure if Malestrom will have a limited supply to hand out? they only recently started doing flames stuff again after they fell out of love with battlefront.

Yeah I thought they might be offering more than they can deliver having read the stuff on the flames site but since I only have the second edition softback think I have placed a small order with maelstrom and see if they come good! I assume that they have been given copies based on the number of 2nd edition rules they sold and they must think they will not get that many into the eye of the storm to swap. I feel they may be about to start another war with battlefront.
I wish GW did this swap deal!!!!!!!!!!!

Its great to see Battlefront pushing the new rules out. Being a lazy gamer I like the idea of the new easy to read comic book style of photos and explainations. Suits me. Was too late last year to get in for Corrivalry :-( But had great fun at Conflict Central. Hope you plan another one soon and would advise any one who like a game of FoW to get involved. Especially so close to home :-)

Order came - no free rulebook. I notice wayland are stating the same offer of free with any order not sure if it is also too good too to be true.

I have complained - cant report them to battlefront as they should only be gieving away free rulebooks to those who present a copy of the second edition. I assume internet companies expect to have plenty of spares hence the offers.

If you ordered after the 3rd but you could always ask since they kept you waiting!
Also I have an 18% off code for maelstrom if anyone wants it.

New rulebook has arrived from Maelstrom - I spent 8.50 including p&p and have a lovely a5 rulebook and a blister to finish off my Bofors platoon. Result!
My old 2nd edition a5 FOW rulebook also sold for 9.50 including postage so have pretty much broken even! Hurrah.
Makes up for the fact that forked out for 2 cinema tickets last night then couldn't take the wife out as my daughter had ear ache....
