Just picked up my rule book a few days ago, and the binding on the book has already failed. Anyone else having issues with poor binding quality?

Yes, same here. I actually bought two rulebooks, so I hope the other one holds.

I bought two rule books so both players would have their own. About a dozen pages have fallen out of the first one. The cover has come off the second one.

Yep. Mine came apart too. Kinda looks bad on FFG.

No problems here.

But with 3 people already having complaints after a short period of ownerships, I do not think this is just coincidence.

Not good for Tannhauser or FFG's record.

Same problem here,took it up to staples today and had it spiral bound for about $5.
