My V3 North Africa book is nothing but a hard cardboard folder to hold a series of sewn … folios(?). It's difficult to jump between various sets to get from earlier pages to the "armoury".
Rising Sun is even worse. All the pages just basically separated from the non-existent "binding". It's nothing but disintegrating glue.
It's a shame considering the quality of the pages and color printing. Has V4 continued this shoddy production values with its numerous books? |

I took all my books straight to Kinkos. For about $5 USD they would put a black, plastic coil binding on them. Pathetic but I did it anyway. I have refused to buy in to 4th ed. |

No. The mini rulebook I have is fine, the codex books are hardback now and robust. |

Strongly recommend the coil binding approach. I used it on Osprey rules, courtesy of Office Depot. |

My V4 books are solid. Like Frothers said, they are hardbound now with proper binding. Great books for sure. |

I don't know about the V4 FOW booklets , but the TY ones weren't that good , just normal paper with a couple of staples holding it together . |
