 A look within the Tome August 6, 2009
Robert T. (Indiana)
The Tome of Salvation is a good companion to the Tome of Corruption. In the fact that it gives the reader an insight to not only the many factions of gods in the warhammer world. But the many ways that there priest should act. The one point that I feel is lacking in the book. Is the lack of information on the Dwarfs and Elves priesthood. Beyond that, the book is amazing and very much a must have to any Roll Player in the Warhammer World.
Excellent sourcebook October 25, 2008

I was very impressed with this sourcebook, both from a roleplay and mechanics point of view. Having played Warhammer Fantasy since second edition, I have been very happy with the level of detail balance versus playability of this editions books in general.
 Great read September 23, 2008

Tome of salvation (ToS) offered me a great and in-depth insight into the mechanics of religion in the Warhammer Fantasy universe. ToS lets you understand why the inhabitants of the old world embrace religion and also has a very detailed section for each faith. Its very interesting and Iam very happy i purchased this title. I highly reccommend the ToS to experienced and hardcore readers of Warhammer Fantasy that crave for more knowledge about the old world.
Overall, Illustraions are great and a great read - 5 stars.

Classic RPG. I prefer this game to AD&D. Game mechanics are more simple which makes it quicker to learn. The career advancement is much more interesting and I like being able to build your characters statistics in a more intelligent manner. Unfortunately most people are sheep and unwilling to give most other games a chance. If more people who play AD&D would give this game a chance and play a few sessions of it, I know there would be less people playing AD&D.

I personally think that this book truly helps give new life to the world of Warhammer. Other books list gods and pantheons and what spells they get and stick to that. But this book gives you important holidays, gestures, minor local gods, people's feelings, different orders and radical beliefs, how other's see elder races's gods, etc. It actually gives you the means to show why religion is more than just a skill bonus or special power. These are gods who are prayed to when the people are troubled, who races and kingdoms go to war for, and who willingly (or unwillingly) die or be executed for. It shows once more Warhammer's dedication to a roleplaying game.
And yes, there are still very, very cool new rules, careers, and spells and such. Very sweet book.
