Here in El Paso Tx four of us got the FOW rules in the little book format and they fell apart at binding right away. Is anyone else having this problem.

When I buy a new book I go straight to Kinko's, do not pass Go, do not collect $200. USD Lay out your $5 USD and have it coil bound. Plus it will then lie flat.

Bad book binding is another trait Battlefront has in common with GW!

What about the hard back main rulebook? Does its binding come loose, too?

Some do, some don't. I've had mine for about three years, and it hasn't come loose, but I just read it, and am pretty careful with all my books. I've seen some folks over on the FoW forums who have had theirs fall apart after several weeks of use.

Haven't had a problem with mine.

if you buy a book and it falls apart dont go get it bound send it or take it back, its obviously not fit for purpose. battlefront will just love all these people who buy a book that falls apart for good money and what do they do complain .. NO spend more money and have it ringed !!!

MUGS if you buy a car n the engine falls out do you say OH well il go have another one fitted at my cost, I dont think so.

Battlefront stuff I like I have the books and models and if i have a problem contact them Ive found their customer service excellent and have had missing parts for models replaced free in days. So dont cop out, contact them and get it rectified.

The little rule book was a freebee given away when they brought out 2nd Ed. It's a bit picky to complain about the binding.

I think they're using the same book for the starter set they're selling now.

I get most of my books spiral-bound by choice. The binding on that little book was a mess though.
