What are the chances of FFG releasing an equipment book for the WH40k range? I know there's a second edition of Dark Heresy on the way but I still think an equipment book would be neat. I know spreadsheets for this kinda thing exist but a full printed book with images would be much better!

The Inquisitor's Handbook has an index that includes not only the guns from its own content but also the guns from the core rulebook.

I know that later books added much more stuff to the list, but IH was supposed to be Dark Heresy's equipment book - even though it became "outdated".

Or are you looking for a book that covers every single one of FFG's 40k RPGs? That would be tricky, as a lot of stuff has different profiles depending on the game you are looking at. This is not a unified ruleset. Although I suppose they could solve this by having the book feature tables that cover each of the available games ...

Try the Macharian Handbook, I find its an amazing resource and it works quite well for what you're looking for.

Right, fan resources are always an option, too!

Here's a link to what Saldre mentioned.

That would be the kind of thing I was hoping for. I do want to get the Handbook but my players are new to RPGs and I don't want to overwhelm them.

Very awesome! Thanks.
