  • Notes :
    • It is useless for my opinion to collect all advertisements – mail order, etc. so I put some here, for obvious reasons (i.e., to have everything that has to do with the Gotrek & Felix).
    • Most of the above books are included in numerous other (printed and digital) omnibus, collections, bundles, etc. For more details check their tag.
    • All Games Workshop miniatures by Citadel Miniatures.
    • Cover is NOT Gotrek & Felix so the artist is not mentioned.
    • The duo is not mentioned in the back cover.
