Yeah, and some of them actually do worship him as a god.

As a general rule of thumb, the older the chapter the more likely they are to see the Emperor as a man, albeit the most spectular man in history

Finally got some info about the the day of the sale:

16. September 2010

Greetings

what next date of release?

14th-16th seems correct.

Stange thing, using FFGs RSS-channel on my phone I get an update that says "Deathwatch and Death Angel Release next week" from 10-09-08.
Thing is, I cant find that update on FFGs own site. Anyone else getting this info?

I know this is more of a tech issue, but as it's related to Deathwatch it's much more interesting.

I've stopped reading mine in the name of solidarity, brothers!!

You don't have a copy to read, I won't be reading my copy!!

A lot of chapters may not recognize him as a god, but everything they do is more or less for him, and to quote earlier, they would see him as pretty much the most awesome person in history. He still watches over them through the warp, so they'll praise him from time to time

You've already memorised it, haven't you ?

I have imagined that the marines see him in a similar way that Catholics see Mother Mary (Please no religion debate here). She is reviered and prayed to so that she can interceed with god on the behalf of those who ask. Churches are raised in her honor but she servers as an example and role model for Order (I mean good).

Either way with Millions of planets I am sure the Mythology of the emperor would be wide and diverse. Just look at our diversity of creation stories, and we are just one planet.

Arch! Shoot me in the knee and pour some salt in it! The dispatch day on the 9th on Amazon.uk just got quietly bumped overnight to 20Sept. ((((

Yes!

That means it is only between 7 and 5000 days before Amazon sends out my copy!

BYE

Hooray! My FLGS confirmed it. I should have my copy next week. Too bad I was on vacation this week. Oh well, just happy to have a date to look forward to.

Games Day UK will have Deathwatch on sale. Thats 23rd of September, so basically in order to sell them they have to have them by that day

my amazon response

Unfortunately, the release date for the item(s) listed below was changed by the supplier, and we need to provide you with a new estimated delivery date based on the new release date:

Watson Ronald Ross "Deathwatch: Core Rulebook (Warhammer RPG)"
Estimated arrival date: September 24 2010 - September 28 2010

One of Amazon's aims is to provide a convenient and efficient service; in this case, we have fallen short. Please accept our sincere apologies.

another 2 weeks it seems

this is heresy of the highest regard

Or you risk this approach, if you're impatient:

It says Sept 14th but you won't be able to hold them accountable to that exact date. Otoh, if they say 14th they'll probably ship it from that point on.

i was planning on a super session on 23rd/24th sept, which is looking bleak. I have seen several sites saying release date is 13th Sept, so may try another provider on the monday.

still shocking, and it seesm FFG are a blizzard clone when it comes to releasing information on the products. It will be worth it though

Deathwatch and other FFG games will be on sale at UK Games Day on the 26th

And when would be available electronic copy of the Deathwatch Core Rulebook anibody knows?

Fatpob, Meph, I've still got estimated delivery date of Deathwatch as 13th September on amazon uk, i'm a Amazon prime suscriber, but the main advertisement for the book has changed to the 20th, but still they tell me the 13th. WTF?????

Woo hoo, esdevium games release schedule for next week includes Deathwatch and the GM's kit. For those who don't know Esdevium are the UK distributer (and Europe as well I think) so when they say they have the book its pretty much a guarentee that it will be out. Expect to see Deathwatch next week.

Maybe because you are a Prime subscriber you have first dibs on the pre-orders, and us others get it later on. Maybe Amazon have more pre-orders then they have stock, who knows?

I have contacted a few independant game stores and they say the release date is Monday 13th September, so online orders should be received the 14th, but they haven't received stock as of yet.

Anyway i will wait a few extra days and get my tenner off.

Esdevium have put up this week's releases, and have both the core book and the GM toolkit down as releasing today! hopefully people should get stock on Monday for sure
