New here - not new to BB

Post by silashand »

Hi All,

Just had a question re: the current CRP and the rules that supposedly ship with the game. I tried a search, but didn't find what I was looking for. Anyway, the intro to the CRP says it is different than the rules provided in the game itself and I am under the impression you need those to actually play the game now? Or am I wrong and the CRP is all you need? What are the differences between what is printed and the CRP download? I understand it is basically LRB6 which is cool. Last time I played was LRB4 a while ago, but seems there's some interest stirring locally so I want to know what I need.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Gary

All you need are the CRP rules, they are LRB 6.0, badly formatted and without any fluff.

The rules in the box are LRB1 (unless you get an old set [for example from eBay]), in which case the rules will be straight 3rd edition.

Thanks. I didn't realize they had ever actually printed LRB1. The handbook in the pic on GW's web site looks just like the v3 ones I still have from days gone by.

IIrc, the only way to tell the difference (without obviously looking in the book itself) was a sticker on the box.
