The difference with that Warseer one is I literally don't know who posted it. Someone reposted it to dakka without a link.

Or... I could just google search and find out that was Darnok.

Updated Darnok and removed the unknown Warseer one.

**Kroothawk**

Darnok is the natfka of Warseer, posting a lot of birdy stuff that often makes no sense.

Although even he has better accuracy than Natfka.

Nicely done! Keep up the good work and get us some more rumors.

Anyone have a copy of tyhe Chaos Daemons codex and want to help out with rumor checking? I do not have one.

Updated the weekend's rumors

**Avian**

A lot of the Daemon stuff is wrong in that it hasn't happened and probably isn't going to happen. But it depends on how long stuff can stay pending. I mean, plastic Furies is going to happen EVENTUALLY, but they've been rumoured for a couple of years now and haven't shown any sign of showing up.

I think that either there should be some kind of time-out for rumours that don't come with a date attached, or rumours that only state that a metal unit is getting converted to plastic should be considered TOO VAGUE if they don't come with a time frame.

It's getting a bit silly with some of those things that will inevitably make the transition, but where people are clearly just making very vague guesses.

**pretre**

I have been marking most stuff FALSE when it is obvious it isn't coming out with the main release.

I need to go through Daemons, but was trying to wait to get a 'copy' of the codex.

Bunch of updates. Stopped at stickmonkey.

**pretre**

Finished updating everything I can without a codex.

**pretre**

Updated from this weekend. Really need a copy of the Daemons codex. Anyone want to help me by confirming /denying rumors?

**pretre**

Updated with Tau rumors. Interesting that the rumor mill is going in full force even with the 'chilling effect' of tracking.

I just got a copy of C:CD, so I can check the Daemon rumors soon.

Well, at first glance I thought it was based on a bird rather than a dragon. It's definitely not a snake style dragon as I know some people have been speculating.

I did see a couple of the other models, but they didn't stick in my mind as well as the dragon, sorry.
I do remember that there were the 2 types of Raptor, from which I got the impression that one is a standard Raptor, and the other is a Raptor that's spent way too much time in the warp (possessed Raptor maybe?). The second type of raptor was more close combat focused, with claws and the like.
As I say, out of the deamon engines I was too busy drooling over the dragon to remember much about the others. I seem to have it stuck in my head though that there were 2 different types based on the same core design though, and I think they were stocky quadrupeds in design. Basically, whilst the Defiler could be said to be based on an arachnid, I think these were based on a more mammalian body type.

Hmm, a source was saying something about the Dragon having a flame template attack to take out armour.

Cool, thanks!

Daemons updated. Let me know if I missed anything. Natfka got hit with the FALSE hammer again.

Holy crap, rumors have been blowing up this week. Completely wishlisty, unreliable ones, but rumors nonetheless.

Big Ol' Tau Updates.

**Shandara**

Keep up the good work, I don't envy you.

**75hastings69**

I never said Brets in 2014 or WE in 2015 or Skaven in 2015. Go and read that post properly.

Hey, Hastings.

I generally get my Warseer info second hand from other folks, so sometimes I need clarification. This is what I was quoted for you:

via 75hastings69
I was actually discussing with Harry about a month or so ago that next WFB is not till 2015.
An extra year would allow all armies to get treatment before new edition in 2015.

2013
HE
Lizardmen

2014
DE
Dwarfs
Brets(?)

2015
WE (?)
Skaven (?)
9th edition

Personally I'd swap WE & Brets around and change Skaven to O&G....... but that's just me

I put them down as speculation as the (?) made it look like you weren't sure. If you have the link to the original Warseer, that would help immensely.

Or do you mean, you had Brets in 2015, WE in 2014 and O&G instead of Skaven in 2015? It kind of looks like you might have been responding to someone else, but was not clear.

I updated based on that assumption that your notes at the end were your actual intention. Let me know if that was right.

**75hastings69**

My line is at the bottom, someone had quoted the first bit from me (my and Harry PM) then added a release schedule, I then quoted it with my own changes which are at the bottom.

I'm also expecting Beastmen in 2015 including plastic centigors.

**pretre**

Aha. Thanks! I updated so take a look and see if it is accurate. I'll add the beast men tomorrow!

**pretre**

Updated hastings for beastmen. Updated a couple Tau rumors but have avoided putting up the 'I read WD and copied everything out' posts.

Never copy Natfka's rumours and quotes blindly. Too many misunderstandings, too many fake rumours mixed in and careless quotes like in this case.

If you had consulted Dakka as a source http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/512959.page , you would have been on the right side. Next time you know

**pretre**

Hey, I take what I can get. Keeping track of all of them is quite a job. I'm glad when people find errors so I can correct them.

**Kroothawk**

If it is important, Dakka usually get's it earlier and in trustworthy form. So if you value quality over speed, wait until it gets here.

BTW don't know why you missed the latest most important Warhammer Fantasy thread on Dakka where everything is clearly and correctly presented..

Posted on a Saturday. I only really do updates on weekdays and I must have missed it on Monday when I came back in.

Massive tau update. I had stopped adding Tau because I thought we were in the WD leak stage, but it looks like we're not. So fixed that.

**pretre**

Minor updates

**pretre**

Lots of new rumors today.

**Sinful Hero**

I really appreciate the work you put into this thread. This really helps sort out the good rumourmongers from the...not so good. Just saying thanks, and keep up the good work!
