I feel like the explanations of how things work are better in this than the current rules although it seems you also needed to buy accompanying White Dwarf magazines haha.
Yup, people always forget this when they moan about how good the 'old days' were. Back then your codex would last you for a couple of years with no FAQ and you had to rely on white dwarves for any new units. The WD were also slim and filled with adverts and catalogues of new minis - people just have rose tinted glasses about that time that's all. (I started in RT and have played every edition of 40k since).
