While this is good news, I have a gripe (already, yes, I know).
It looks from the preview image like you still get use aimed fire even if you are removing suppression that turn (because you will have to have remained stationary).
It would have been nice to so see the Aim action that some have suggested. It seems unfair that you get to aim when you should be keeping your head down.
Still, the imminent release is great news and the preview images look brilliant.

Great news. Thanks for the heads up & for all your hard work on this Robin! Looks to be well worth the wait. This fall will see some great releases and Gruntz! will be one of them.

Can I just check: are we permitted to get an online print company to print and bind a hard copy for us? If so, I assume this may only be one copy per owner of a pdf and for personal use.

You can print your copy for personal use. It might be better to buy the print on demand option on the site though because it will be perfect bound and I will have checked the print quality. The PDF can be printed but it won't have gone through the same layout adjustments as the print on demand version. Just from a quality perspective it would be better and might not be much difference in cost (possibly cheaper) than using an alternative print service.

Small comment for those of us in the UK.
I got the mini flames of war book V3 free when it came out, as is typical of their books it started falling apart and I wanted to get it spiral bound. This is very easy and cheap in the US but rare in the UK and can be quite expensive.
I got Staples to do it for about £3-£4 as I remember, they did a great job. So if you do print your pdf copy you could get them to bind it for you.
Must admit I will just print and use as is, one of the nice things about the rules seems to be that a QRS and the unit cards is really all you need to play. So I will just knock up unit cards laminate them and work from that.

Print on the demand for me, I like the sound of perfect bound!

The worst WORST binding I've ever had was the binding on the WH40k 5th edition, (the blue book). That dang thing completely fell apart on me within weeks of using it, and the kicker is I only referenced it a few times a game. And when I say fall apart, I mean sections falling off the glue, the stitching was poorly done and the glue holding the cover image on was weak.
Laminated pages with spiral binding is the way to go if you want it to last, it can get expensive though to laminate a whole book. It was about $50 for me to get my Ogre Kingdoms book done that way.

I love a spiral bound book. Lays flat, easy to reference, but sometimes not long for this world. However, I try to be careful with all my books and I don't hand them around the table.

I have seen a few people spiral bind their Gruntz rules. It certainly does make it easier to reference whilst gaming.
