Mae govannon. Merry meetings and well met again.
So it's no longer the BRB, now it's the DERB. (Digital Edition Rule Book) I am all in for 9th Age.

Merry meet/welcome to the Forum, Merrydownjade.

I hope you enjoy your Wood Elf experience; I always think that getting the Army Book first for any new army is the way to go!

Well I thought the book was so well made that Id get it first to learn about what I'm collecting, and the big rule book that is :crazy: you could beat a man to death with that thing.
Blessed Be.

You might also like the End of Times Khaine Book, this is also very well made with lots of good art work.

The hard back version is currently out of stock; but I expect a soft cover version will be released in the New Year (no I don't have shares in GW LOL!).

Have to agree about the BIG Red Book, it does take some carting around, especially if you have one of the larger Army Cases as well!

Read your army list in the other thread; the one thing I might consider, if I was just starting out with the new WE Army book is to swap/part exchange ONE box of Glade Riders for a box of Sisters/Wild Riders (you do however only get 5 Sisters against 8 GR and the UK cost difference is £2.50 MORE for the Sisters).

Use this box as Wild Riders, keeping the Sister Torso's for mounted mages, any spare Elven Steeds can be made into a Unicorn quite easily however. There are threads on this forum covering this conversion if it appeals to you!
