Second wave is already halfway upon us. We got the tanks yesterday and we'll be getting the two Catachan characters next month.

COMING SOON TO CHANNEL7 - The insidious masterminds of HADES are constantly threatening the free nations of the world through acts of terror and theft of top secret equipment. The scheming Elliot Fontaine is trying to dominate the world market with his Fontaine Industries products. The evil Red Empire is encroaching upon the world with its armies of misguided minions. The Republic of Alruco is a hotbed of intrigue and murder. Finally.. the mysterious island Kingdom of Korvosa are getting more and more bold with their science projects.
The forces of good are preparing their agencies, amongst them the British CROWN and American OMEGA, to combat these evil factions and ensure that freedom will prevail once more! |

No indeed, that sounds more like an mmorpg... Which is impossible. But some kinda online thing perhaps...

Oh the answer is clear then. The only thing that could possibly be in the Mystery box is the internet.

I reckon Hollismason is right, I think that some Germans will walk out once it's been revealed (regardless of it being good or bad).

If you enjoy the hobby by bringing less competitive, more fluffy armies, then i can respect you for that, but i'd ask that you not think less of me just because I am enjoying the hobby in a different way.

why should we see us as highlight of the year?
Remember we dont have this box presented to us, our hints consist of dropping a bomb....
Maybe the british are jealous of the continentals getting all the sneak peeks ( france, spain, italy ) and try to erase all evidence
of GW's presence outside the UK?

T-Shirts are clearly a Codex: Inquisition related accident - I figure they've been accidentally shipped early.
After all, you have a DH quote on one side, and WH on the other.
This box is CATEGORICALLY NOT Warhammer Quest.

The t-shirts are not necessarily related to the box. Didn't someone point out earlier in this thread that they are related to GW opening a new rumors section on their website? Or was that just a guess?
If so, the box can still be anything.

I have to admit- I dont care.
As someone pointe dout earlier, I'm not a child, I dont need to play these idiotic games. If its something very cool, maybe I'll get it.

Show us your proof PLEASE. If you're just basing this off the origins of the two quotes you might as well get an account with some stupid place.

Thank you - I had almost forgotten how much I love this song. EDIT: Sigh, and it also reminded me of how much I hate the Youtube country restrictions. Seriously, why is it that like 50% of all songs are "not available in my country"? Oh well, I'll just listen to it on spotify -.-

Well...
While I did make this thread, and I am a Mod, it certainly doesn't mean anything other than just that.
I thought we were close enough to the launch that we might be able to 'figure this out'.
Either that or Philbrad, Brimstone, or someone else would drift by and drop a hint that would help us out.
If this thread doesn't just die out of its own lack on info, or drifts too far afield, I'm sure it will suffer the same fate of all such threads...
