The first wave of releases, available today, include the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Core Rulebook, the Old World Bestiary, and Sigmar's Heirs. In July, Wave 2 arrives, consisting of the Game Master's Pack, Plundered Vaults, and the Old World Armoury. Future waves will arrive every few weeks throughout the summer, with plans to have more than twenty books available for download.
The original files are being updated to incorporate errata, and the PDFs are being generated in an easy-to-use format with handy chapter tabs and searchable text for greater utility.
Well that may be the answer to them dropping the print runs for certain books.
The prices aren't unreasonable either $25 for the core book and $15 for the books.
