Stop what you’re doing and go download the free rules for Warhammer 40,000: 10th Edition from Games Workshop right now!

Games Workshop has opened the floodgates and unleashed 10th edition into the wild…kind of. The core rules for Warhammer 40,000: 10th Edition are now available to download and read at your leisure.

“It’s June, which means that Warhammer 40,000: Leviathan is out this month. To whet your appetite for this bumper new box of far-future delights, we are releasing the full core rules: online, for free, right now.”

Games Workshop also has a handy How To Play video that’s shy of 8 minutes long. So if you’ve got the time it’s worth a watch.

It’s a pretty basic rundown of the game and it’s phases — which is a great place to start. As far as the Core Rules, honestly they feel pretty similar to what we have now but with some slight changes. The phases are shifted a bit. Some of the language has been cleaned-up or reformatted. One of the key differences is the datasheet layouts (which we’ve been seeing).

One other thing to note is that the length of the rules is way back up. This isn’t the 8-page ruleset from 8th! There’s also the fact that a lot of the special rules are included in the core rules now:

I do wish there was a glossary for all the key abilities but in the digital age that’s what good old “ctrl+f” is for. In any case the rules are out so it’s the perfect time to start devouring them. We don’t have the indexes out yet so you can’t play (unfortunately). But at least the game rules can be studied and you can start to learn them today.
