In other news, massive update to the first post. I think I got all the 8th rumors.

Pretre. There was somehting I forgot to mention you when it happened. Bob, the moderator from Lady Atia's site, hinted rumours a few days ago about an Age of Sigmar RPG coming alongside a WHRP new edition. While the first part is still an unknown, we've gotten confirmation that a new edition for WHRP is in the making.

The incunbent rumours:

Bob:i think Fp are going to stay and prosper in one form or another. especially with the dev of pen & paper rpg in aos setting ^^
Tomas Höll: Along with the new Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay edition?
Bob: yes.
Another comment.
Bob: will see what they announce at Warhammer fest

**pretre**

Awesome. Thanks!

**pretre**

Anyone have a link to the italian leak/rumor?

**pretre**

Minor updates. I think it is kind of interesting how much rumors have slowed down now that we have a solid news site in Warhammer Community and an accelerated timeline in releases.

A few more updates. Went through and false'd out a bunch of reaaaallly old rumors (brets anyone?)

**pretre**

Minor release schedule updates

**pretre**

Minor updates.

**pretre**

Gave Natfka a true for the Eldar rumor, even though it wasn't technically NEXT saturday, but NEXT NEXT saturday.

**pretre**

Minor update.

**pretre**

I think I finally got all of the tyranid 'leaks'.

**pretre**

Minor updates. Looks like someone needed more clicks and started 'finding' more rumors.

**Alpharius**

Did a bunch of stuff go missing?

Or am I just missing it?

Hmph. Not sure what happened, but I fixed it.

**pretre**

Looks like Natfka was right about CA.

**cyphertheory**

is the first post displaying incorrectly for anyone else? I only seem to get three names on the list?

**pretre**

Good catch. Looks like a partial upload and it has been fixed.

**axisofentropy**

Is that Haechi guy who predicted Custodes on this list?

Also it's still showing only a few for me in OP

**pretre**

I updated it again, as it appears to have been a rogue smiley.

As for Haechi, I don't have his original rumor. Anyone have a link?

**pretre**

Hmm. Looks like Haechi may be hitting the end of his rope on correct rumors as I thought I saw DE, Tau then Necrons and that isn't what he's listing. Guess we will see!

**pretre**

Ugh. After this latest mess, I think I'm taking a break for a while. If anyone wants in, let me know. Posting this bit so I can look at it if/when I come back:

Everyone crapping on Natfka in this thread and he was right from the get go lol.

People have called out a Tau and Necron codex since long before that rumor.
GW themselves called out Q1 2018 for the Fyreslayers and Skaven warbands for Shadespire.
And guess what? Thousand Sons and the last Custodes stuff goes up for preorder this Saturday, meaning he's wrong on that front.

Literally all Natfka does is take existing rumors/speculation and repost it as "ANONYMOUS SOURCES!".
As much as I agree about Natfka, he didn't actually start those rumors and I believe he actually attributed this time.
Haechi was pretty accurate for that distance though. I haven't updated the stuff for Feb yet since Feb isn't over, but it is nice to see it all in one spot:

Haechi - Total rumors: (2 TRUE) / (0 FALSE) / (0 PARTIALLY TRUE/VAGUE) - updated 1/25/2018
[spoiler]
PENDING Release Schedule Rumors - Jan 2018
So, new rumors (apparently the 4chan schedule was some compiled leaks and some bullgak - as usual) :

- February : End of Custodes, Thousand Sons - for AOS : 4 Harbingers, Legions Of Nagash battletome.

- March : Codex T'au and Necron (maybe Necromunda, Bloodbowl) - Malign Portents campaign book, reboxed sceneries (maybe in Feb).

- April-may : Codex Harlequin and Drukari, AOS Aleves.

Since June, no data but :

- AOS summer global campaign like Seeds of Hope, Fate of Konor (Maybe a 40k campaign book / big boxset).

- End of August : Codex Space Wolves.

- December : Codex Orks / Speed kult (with new moldels).

- Maybe : end 2018 / start 2019 : Slaanesh 40k and AOS (probably around new Keeper of Secret and daemon Fulgrim).

PENDING Release Schedule Rumors - Nov 2017
Early and throughout January - Double daemons TRUE
End of January is Custodes TRUE
February is unknown but some is custodes
Early mid march is Tau
End of Month is necrons
April and may are Harlequins, Drukharii and the two new aelves for AOS

[/spoiler]

@pretre

Just to clarify, the post you quoted in "pending" was mine, I did back then a little "rumors compilation" found around the net :
- From Haechi / Temouloun (same person on ATT / WoS) rumors,
- From the Malign Portents "painting contest" flyer (for the AOS/ Malign portents new) - as Kanluwen said.
- From the GW-confirmed new Shadespire release (it was out last month IIRC)
- Form the 4chan release schedule (page 1 of this thread), which is apparently itself a compilation.
- Form the Dakka poster "Thebiggesthat" who said here after the Maggotkin release that the Keeper of Secret (so probably full Slaanesh release) was coming "end 2018". I think he teased the GUO before it was sighted at the Open day.
- About Slaanesh again, Bob said something about Slaanesh and Khorne (40k World eaters) being this year too.

Hi Pretre, please add these Grandmaster Damion rumors to the tracker

Right I've been chatting with several GW staff and I have bad news at launch the grandmaster boxset is limited to 20000 copies world wide with no more available until Xmas with a sale price of £180 and will NOT be available in-store

This is due to low production prority as it's only a specialist game

Hey, Warhams. I've been out of updating this for 6 months or so. I have a new business venture and the whole tracker is really a thankless and endless job. I'm happy to pass it to someone else if they would like it.

**Mysterio**

I...did not know this!

Best of luck in your current and future endeavors, and thank you for all the work you did on this project here!

Hi Pretre

Sorry for my late response. Same here, very busy atm and not much time to visit forums. Thanks a lot for your hard work on the tracker, it has been very helpful!

I think we could still use this thread for the occassional discussion about a source - without the tracker getting updated. This keeps the amount of work low for everybody

**pretre**

So quickly people forget:

Discussion of 4chan leaks. lol

With the Return of the Rumor Mongers - this Thread should maybe reactivaed?
