Lizardmen Book Question

[DeathBringer125]

Hey I got a WHFB lizardmen battletome from a shop for like 15 bucks and I wanted to know what edition it is.

Fairly certain that is 5th ed.

Yes, that is definitely 5th. The 6th, 7th, and 8th ed. books had a very different style.

Yup! I agree with these fine lizards. 5th edition it is.

Nice ty for help I was curious. I’ve realized how great the lizardmen lore is and was nerding out over the lizardmen glyphs and maps of the temple cities etc. also the stories in it are amazing especially the Tale of Marco Columbo.

You can poke fun at the name, but I actually have the model. And the name is pretty standard for GW in those days. I mean, Luthor Huss was a named Empire Warrior Priest and was constructed the same way.

In general, the fifth edition army books had great fluff and really stupid names.

The fluff between 6th, 7th, and 8th edition was virtually the same. 8th edition is marginally better edited and illustrated.
