Dude! What happened to the Orks!? they are the forgotten Waaagh!

The Orks are happy with their well balanced Codex and wait for the 2-4 years older Codices to get updated

My local GK manager says that they're told to put dates in their calendars because there are new releases then, but they don't get told what is actually being released.

Great round up Kroothawk! Keep up the good work!

Wow, Kroot. You must be really sure of this Dark Angel release. Do you have inside information?

Well, I am not so sure now, Hastings clarified his statement.

According to BoK, the release date looks like this:

The release schedule for 40k 2012 is…
April-May: Dark Angels/Fallen
June-Aug: 6th Ed
Oct-Nov: Chaos Space Marines

How about that?

wow... if this is right, orks are getting hosed.

Actually no. Chaos Space Marines, Dark Angels, Eldar, Tau, Black Templar and Sororitas all have older Codices. Not mentioning Ork second wave and Ork Stompa and soon Ork Bomba/Figha.

not that soon

Has anyone heard rumours on Orks?

I betcha that Space Wolves 2nd wave gets that Bran Redmaw model that was photgraphed at gamesday

I doubt it. That will be a Forge World release to support the IA11.

Well the cron battleforce is out now. It looks like at least one of the leaks was spot on. 20 warriors, 5 imortals, 5 scarbs and an ark.

Any news on an Ork update?

Which part of No was misunderstandable? Or do you intent to ask every week for the next 5 years?

I really wish that the Tau would get their long overdue update. They are one of the oldest codices still in existence, and possibly the least serviceable under the current rules set. They still have a Strategy Rating, for goodness' sake!! What other codex still has a Strategy Rating? (This isn't entirely a rhetorical question, as I'm not sure. Chaos? Eldar? I feel like even they got a partial update since THAT was a relevant part of a codex.

Kroot, when was the last time that you updated the first post you made in this thread? I'm just curious about how recent it is.

Any chance of an Ork update??? haha, kidding. but seriously are we that bothered about who gets the first update? we know that whoever gets the first dex's get outpowered by the later ones so in the end we all wait for the new rules for each army and game set. sorry to put a downer on it. just a shame the game is so addictiveor else i could try a differenty gaming system!!

So, I am sure that someone else has probably seen this but.... if you put the white dwarf spines together for the last 2 months (Jan and Feb) then you see what seems to be the robed side leg of a Dark Angel marine. So maybe hinting at the codex coming?

Ohhhhh, really. I don't get the white dwarfs so thats seems like a good hint.

Yeah, thats what I thought, and I reckon maybe 3 or 4 months to complete the picture would bring us to may/june time? So maybe a codex round then? As a Dark Angel player that would be awesome but its pure guess work really!

You can see the date of the last update at the end of the first post, in this case 83rd edit 29th February

Has been discussed in this thread:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/426368.page
Can also be a hint on the 6th edition starter set including Dark Angels.

Kroothawk, I know you are a busy busy man, what with all the rumour wrangling for the greater good, but any chance of an update as to where we are at?

Some of the stuff is very out dated and it is a sticky.

Actually, we don't know much more ATM. Updating would mostly be deleting old months.

Is there any word on the a 6th editionification of the Space Marine Codex?

Fair enough!

Thank you for your sharing. I love it.

A thread presenting a rather diffrent lineup. There is no reason really to believe this thread over what is presented here but since this is a 'rumer roundup', I think its justifyed to share it here.

I agree with The Spore, so many rumours and if there not definite I have no idea whether they will be coming to us or not.
but the fact that there's a pattern on the way they bring out new codex's is I bit OTT. they will just simply choose something that has not had a lot of attention paid to recently and put some thought into that particular army.

Several untested rumour posters claim to have trustworthy sources for the following Codices being released in June: Black Templar, Dark Angels, Eldar, Tau, and Chaos Legions. Let's just say, I don't believe that we will get 5 full Codex releases in June, actually I believe we will get none.
So the rumour round up in the first post does not claim to quote every existing rumour out there but tries to filter them already according to credibility.
