Navigation is also made simple through direct links to chapters and army lists. Expansions will also follow the same path and be released digitally in the coming future.

JD McNeil, Chairman of Slitherine, said: “Once again we are taking the wargaming world to a new experience. It’s indeed a radical change and it’s not a cosmetic one. This new way of distributing rules and updates is a revolution and we certainly want to stay close to the community of fans and players while they transition to the new Field of Glory world”.

A print on demand version of the rules will also become available later this year. This way players will be to chose if they want to keep playing with the paper rules.
