Question

Warhammer 40k: waht is the different between the battle for macrage rulebook and the other rulebook?

Answer 1

Trust me. I don't even play warhammer, and I know that the Battle for macrage is enough.

Answer 2

Size.

That's really about it.  The Big Green Book - as it's known - also has a painting and hobby section not included in the pocket-sized book.

Personally, I like both books but prefer the small one for actually playing games, whereas the larger one is better for sitting and reading later.

Answer 3

The Smaller book is just the rules and even then some of them are just summarized, were as the bigger book has a lot of fluff in it

Answer 4

The big rule book has the rules and some background history about the 40K universe along with some terrain ideas and modeling ideas- think of it as a hobby book. The McCrage book only has the rules and is a nice size to take with you when you play to check the rules and mission, etc.
