    Let's just take a moment to fully appreciate 3:21. A unique, character-specific special rule called 'Embittered' for a character who is the knight with the shiniest armour in 40k. The DA''s have always been weird though: "No, that's *our* Predator varient and we're not sharing!" and the Chaplain with a WFB Vampire statline (S7, T7, etc.) were the least of it...

    As a sucker for customization, hearing this book contains a truly massive system for building your own vehicle is amazing to me, and makes it worth a pick up any time you're at a used book place! Stuff like that makes playing older rules editions very interesting because it's something you truly can't get out of modern 40K (or, you can, but it would take incredible time balancing the whole thing).
