No, but someone predicted a mycetic spore dual kit a year or so ago.

Which did you correct? I remember a lot of them talking about spores more creature-like, sort of bigger Tervigon, which this kit is not.

Basically only the ones that said 'Dual Kit' I think 2 for Natfka got switched and 1 for Vela. I left the rest false since the details of their description were wrong, but the concept of a dual kit spore was right.

Spotted this on BoLS this morning, noticed its not on Darnocks profile while checking his accuracy-

The Elves get their turn with a twist in the upcoming End Times Series for Warhammer Fantasy. Here's the latest:

End Times Rumors 11-9-2014 (Black Library Weekender)

via Warseer's Darnok:
Now what if I tell you that 1.) the Elves ET book will come with no models alongside it and 2.) there will be two more ET books after it?

Volume III: The Curse of Khaine (Scheduled for this year)
Volume IV: Skaven Book
Volume V: Unknown rumored final volume

The big point of contention out there in rumorland is whether or not End Times: Khaine will come with models, or be a book only release. Based on what we've seen before from the End Times series, Army Bundles to represent the listed battle hosts is a given, and both High Elves and Dark Elves have received substantial new kits in their last updates.

But then again, would a model of Khaine himself count as an "Elf Model"?

Awesome. Thanks!

Tons of updates.

Here's my work list (not all inclusive, but gives you an idea):

Added recent rumors.

1st: My dwarf rumour was true.

2nd: The speculation about the website going down and it could be the new one. Was not a rumour just me pointing a fact.

3rd: you just picked each individual paragraph my rumpurs and called it false.

4th: you labeled BA as false yet the year is not over.

Nice to see you hate me being right

I would take a more positive step forward with this. Something more like this:

1st: I believe my dwarf rumour was true and I am not sure why it was marked false. Was it because of the release date?

2nd: I didn't mean for the speculation about the website going down and it could be because of a new website to be a rumor. It was just a comment on what was happening at the time. It is strange that GW did release a new website though.

3rd: you just picked each individual paragraph my rumours and called it false.

4th: My BA rumor is labeled as false but I still have a few more weeks. If it ends up being 2014 could I at least get a partially true even though I might only be wrong by a month or so?

A lot of people hate on me for being wrong, but some of these corrections will help with that.

No idea on the 3rd one. A lot of times people pick rumors apart for individual bits of information even if you intended it as one rumor.


I realize you are a little agitated because of how people have pounded your rumors into the dirt when all you want to do is share the information you know with all of us. The internet is a tricky thing though. Sometimes putting the best foot forward before others goes a long way.

As far as I knew this was incorrect. Anyone else want to help out?

Dwarf Rumors / GW Site Rumors - Jan 2014
Dwarfs are set to get a heavy release in the first two weeks of february. FALSE
The first week is the codex and all redos of metal/finecast kits along with troops units. FALSE
The second week will bring new kits and the larger ones like warmachines and characters. FALSE

Dwarf slayers with get a new plastic kit FALSE
and a new siege engine will be released aswell FALSE

2nd: The speculation about the website going down and it could be the new one. Was not a rumour just me pointing a fact.

This doesn't sound like speculation.

The new gw website will launch in march. FALSE
The forgeworld, black library and gw sites will merge as one under the name of Games Workshop. How all books and fw products will be arranged is to be seen. whether all books and novels will be under each army they are about or under a black libary tab and FW products under each army or under a FW tab. FALSE

Forgeworld Rumors Codex - Jan 2014
To go with forge world combining web pages with GW, they will release codexes containing their products with all rules, stats and fluff for each army for both 40k and fantasy. These will be similar to supplements with new rules and warlord traits. The prices are said to be similar to 40k hard back codices FALSE

3rd: you just picked each individual paragraph my rumpurs and called it false.

That's how it works. We analyze each thing you say and assess true or false.

4th: you labeled BA as false yet the year is not over.

I labeled BA as false since another army came out between GK and BA.

Nice to see you hate me being right

No one hates anyone. If you have a problem with an individual track that I did, please post it here and we will discuss it. So far, I'm not seeing anything to change.

Updated first post.

I'm in full agreement with pretre- his rumors are consistently updated and he gets a lot of feedback from the community as a whole, especially when new information comes to light.

necronspurs2012, I'm curious which of the "False"-labelled rumors you feel is improperly tagged?

The first part of the dwarfs was right.

The part about the website going down! And it could be the new site In January was just speculation.

Dwarfs are set to get a heavy release in the first two weeks of february. FALSE
This part? Someone want to help him out here? Wasn't Feb 2014 Tyranids?

What part about the website going down? Cut and paste, man! This is speculation?

That looks like a statement, not speculation.

Going strictly from memory I think Tyranids were January.

As there was a lot of conflicting rumors of Nids dropping in Dec or Jan. Similar to the recent discussions about BA "Dec is always Hobbit/bundles etc"

Nids were in Jan 2014, I have the WD next to me

Dwarfs came with the first issue of White Dwarf Weekly. According to the BL website the mag was released on Feb 1st 2014

http://www.blacklibrary.com/whitedwarf/White-Dwarf-Issue-1.html
http://www.blacklibrary.com/whitedwarf/White-Dwarf-Issue-2.html
http://www.blacklibrary.com/whitedwarf/White-Dwarf-Issue-3.html



With issue 4 GW switched back to 40k - with the Imperial Knights (Feb 22nd 2014)

http://www.blacklibrary.com/whitedwarf/white-dwarf-issue-4.html

Not sure if there were any Dwarf releases in this mag as well

Here is the N&R thread concerning dwarves:

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/575148.page

It was Feb 2014

Dwarfs were February(until the 22nd when it shifted to the Imperial Knights), but none of his predicted units were actually detailed...so I'd call that a false/partially true? Everything he listed was just so vague that it could have been lucky guesses.

The release breakdown for Dwarfs was as follows:
February 01st(preorder date) to February 08th(release):
Belegar Ironhammer(plastic blister)
Dragon Slayer(plastic blister)
Hammerers/Longbeards(plastic boxed set)

2/7-2/15:
Gyrobomber/Gyrocopter(plastic boxed set)
Dwarf Runelord(plastic blister)
Grimm Burloksson(plastic blister)
Warhammer Armies: Dwarfs(army book)

2/14-2/22:
Dwarf Battleline(army box)
Ironbreakers/Irondrakes(plastic boxed set)

Added bonus? Digital Dataslate: Tyranid Invasion came out this same timeframe.

The next week(2/22-3/1) was the release of the Imperial Knight model.

Aha, so first three weeks of Feb were dwarves. Partially true it is.

So, timeline seems relatively correct, but most of the details about the releases themselves either very vague or incorrect.

Only if you take the time line as that which was correct, AFAIK there's no sign of Bretts or Beastmen, and not a hint of the End Times, so I think Pretre has been generous in marking each release individually, personally I'd lean towards a "partially true" for the thing as one rumour.

No one is persecuting you, NS2012. We are simply evaluating your statements and comparing them to what really happened. You brought up the dwarf thing. I reevaluated it for you because I was incorrect. Not sure what else you want me to do...

Right, I admit I was trying to cut necronspur2012 a little slack since he seems to think everyone is out to get him. I think pretre does a fantastic job with the rumors and is never overly critical of individual rumors. Everything that has been marked "false" has been pretty darn fair, and changing one rumor from "false" to "partially true" doesn't change the fact that most of this seems cobbled together from other rumors and wishlisting.

Yes, well. I am the nice one...

Hi there

I was reading through the Steve the Warboss parts because there seems to be more and more either sketchy (WFB) or very imaginative rumors (new SM sprues) from him. I hope he will turn out correct though

Blood Angel Rumors - Sept 2014
via Steve the Warboss
-The Sons of Sanguinius will come soon after Endtimes Book 2.
-GW will use this release slot to replace older Space Marine Plastic sprues.
-4-5 week are realistic.

BA were not after the End Times 2 book - ET 3 is already out
The other two points are unknown yet but we should see the correctness of them pretty soon

This is the newest rumor not yet on the tracker

via Steve the Warboss 11-25-2014

-The Work on the Rules has already completed
-Endtimes will maybe not mentioned in the Rulebook
-The Design Studio seems working on Siege Rules for an Expansion
-The Starter Set will return to "step by step" introduction
-No allied Matrix like 40k, we become something like "factions"
-GW plans the release for May, Starter will come in June

For Khemri we will see a Colossus Model. FALSE or vague

Afaik a Khemri Colossus is already established in the fluff - basically a Khemri Titan - but not Nagash or one of the other ET releases. This has to be answered by someone with more wfb knowledge though

Cool. I'll update after the holiday break.

Hi Pretre. Nightfury can be marked up on some of his/her Tyranid predictions.

He/She also posted the following

Don't fret.. the nuns are on the horizon.. my gf said its the only army she has interest in playing but won't let me "waste" any $$$ on anything that's within months of being released and i was told to wait until next year before purchasing any additional models.. take it however you want but even with the significant discounts i can get i am to be patient.. luckily i have way too much on my table to worry anytime soon.. just finished converting Logans sled dogs into saddled Thunderwolves with riders.. pics to follow :-)"
