I wanna know if team packs have the same Special Play Cards. Feels stupid to buy all three if the play cards is the same in all three....

Andy is doing an interview for Warhammer TV on Thursday which will answer all these questions. I can give more detail after that if you can be patient gents.
Cheers.

Is it a replacement of the previous DZ's? (so ruleswise obsolete, but without hesitation worth it because tons and tons of fluf?)

Or is it a successor to the DZ's? (so containing new rules etc?)
It's a reprint of the DZs and WD stuff. From what I've heard (and read in the OP here) nothing new.

One soul.99p. :lol:
Educated guess - circa £20-£25.
The community team on Facebook pretty much confirmed there won't be new rules in it.

Not as optimistic as you are on the prices, this is a hardback after all and it comes with the content of two DZ books, so it will be roughly twice as expensive, probably. I hope not, but it looks high enough quality that I could live with it.

Probably not, just an example of stuff they've released which is not saved or sorted anywhere. I'm not sure but they might not even include the Blitzmania stuff.

I've seen €30 somewhere. on FB i think.
30 GBP from Darkson's link. Which based in other product by GW (Sammael), could mean 40 EUR, 49.50 USD. DZ1 is 15 and DZ2 is 18 GBP, 33 total.

Does anybody know pagecount? Exact contents? DZ1+DZ2+WD rules or also fluff? Is it still printed black&darkred on greys/browns (ie, eye fatiguing)?

Did anyone watch the Warhammer TV interview?

I was just wondering if the content of the team card packs was discussed as i'm trying to figure out what the '44 in-game reference cards' were about that will be released this month.
