I've been noticing that the latest release of supplements are more cut and pasting then anything else. But to what extent I really can't tell.
Like the Codex: Raven Guard (supplement) comes right out and says it is taken from 'Mont'ka' and 'Echoes of War: Loss' but is there anything else that would make me want to buy this book? I have the card set so no need for objectives or Warlord Traits. This only leaves chapter relics and one Echoes of War mission.
So is this just a compilation? Are the other ones about the same? If you have any, especially the Raven Guard, I'm just looking for some clarity and comparison.
TANKZ!

The digital book is just the rules from the campaign books. You'll get the magic items, formations/detachments, special objectives, warlord traits, and one scenario.
The chapter specific rule ebooks were released because haters *****ed about having to buy a hardbound campaign book to get some rules they wanted to play.
As a White Scars player, IMHO, the entire Mont'ka book was awesome, especially if you are a fluff fan. The campaign was a lot of fun to play and the Raven Guard story advanced in a significant way.

Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately, they only have the Supplidexes for Apple devices so even if I wanted it, can't... :(
Also, It looks like some, if not all, of the data from the Supplidexes are in the Angels of Death book. IS this another way to get the data sheets, etc.?

The Angels of Death book isn't out, so I can't say for sure, but it does look like all of the special stuff is going to be in the AoD supplement.

They usually contain some decent Chapter Specific fluff which you might like as a Raven Guard Player

I guess waiting for more info on AoD is the choice for now. Thanks for everyone's two-cents!
