My initial impressions are good. There are some interesting differences between this book and the other Warhammer Army books:-
General Observations
1) It's a much bigger book and a longer read. There are 112 pages which is 40% longer than mos of the other army lists, most of which are 80 pages long.
2) The painted miniature diorama photos are probably the best of any of the books. As are the battle standard bearer miniatures.
3) The chaos army, particularly Hordes, lends itself to conversions - the wierder the better ! If you like converting models then this is the army for you.
More soon when I'll be getting into the specifics of the army itself.
