Games Workshop has announced a revival of the highly anticipated Siege of Terra: End of Ruin special edition book after scalpers wreaked havoc during its initial pre-order. The book, set against the backdrop of the Horus Heresy, is an anthology featuring crucial lore from the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Previously, the company's website was taken offline to combat scalpers exploiting the pre-order system, creating frustration among genuine fans. Now, the special edition will be offered as a "guaranteed stock run," allowing orders from Saturday until Christmas Eve, ensuring that those who truly want a copy will receive one. This positive shift has garnered excitement among the Warhammer community, highlighting a potential end to scalper problems and opening doors for future similar initiatives.
