Haha there is. That rumor originally came out, then it was fake, then this book hit and its not fake, now they're saying its a fake again. I have no idea what to believe.
This just fits into what I really want since I play Dark Angels

That book genuinely is demonstrably fake though.

I was surprised to see this (DA book) teased earlier today and equally surprised it was revealed to be a hoax.
I'm rather curious to see if anything similar to it is coming soon though, as the Lion has been teased quite a lot and a DA themed release seems likely to accompany the Lion's release.
Take it easy.

That was my understanding as well, here. I'm extremely interested in seeing if this BA vs. Tyranids campaign is going to be released before, after, or concurrent with any new edition release. I suspect April will see the new Death Guard and Mortarion released with the recent teaser video we've seen. After that, it's anyone's guess really.
Yay rampant speculation ahoy.
Take it easy.

I would reeeeaaally love to see the Baal narrative finish out. Throw some love at the BA and Nids, both of whom need it. Say, a triumvirate of BA characters and big Nid that can compete with primarchs/knights?
That being said, I hope the new BA wouldn't be Sanguinius (which we've already discussed).
Here's to me in my sober mood,
When I ramble, sit, and think.
Here's to me in my drunken mood,
When I gamble, sin, and drink.
And when my days are over,
And from this world I pass,
I hope they bury me upside down,
So the world can kiss my ass!

BA will probably have a release soon, but the Lion is probably the next loyalist primarch. The Fallen, and Cypher, are right at Big E's doorstep, with what is potentially the Lion sword. If the threat of that won't wake up Jonny boy, I have no clue what will.

I fully expect to see that sword Cypher is carrying come into play at some point sooner rather than later.
Whether it's the Lion who winds up carrying it, or some other DA hero of yore, is anyone's guess. There's certainly some intrigue afoot though that's for sure.
In the mean time, I just want to see this Nurgle release come on out, as I REALLY want to see the full range of Death Guard models and of course Mortarion. Both the model, and the rules too.
Take it easy for now guys.

Hopefully this isn't considered threadromancy, as this thread isn't too terribly old, but I felt this would be a good chance to offer up a point that has been making the rounds since last week. Let's jump right in shall we?
Firstly, the revamped 40k universe map has some new additions.... Namely the giant warp scar across it's center:
Notice that Baal, as well as several prominent Imperial Guard Regimental worlds are stranded on the far side of the scar, labeled Imperium Nihilus (ominous, that).
Some speculate that this spells doom for the Blood Angels, as a recent BoLS article suggests. I have one thing to say to that: It sounds like six different kinds of heresy with a seventh kind liberally sprinkled on top, just for giggles. I digress, for now.
I've seen a few other threads discussing the possibility of Sanguinius's return in various level of theory and detail recently, and with the recent reveal of the new galaxy map I felt it might add some credence to the possibility that somehow, some way, Sanguinius might be brought back to defend the Imperium Nihilus while his Brother Guilliman organizes things down South of the Scar.
What say you, kind reader?
Take it easy.

That'd certainly be interesting, but that leaves me wondering how they'll retcon Sanguinius back into existence. Someone gonna Robby G him with a new suit of armor? Pretty dead for that right now unfortunately. But all in all, I doubt Baal and the BA will just fall, maybe a mass relocation though.
I really want to see the Salamanders find all of the Artifacts of Vulkan and their Primarch return. Vulkan is the most human of all the Primarchs and I think would be as inspiring a presence as Guilliman. Being that he's functionally immortal it's super easy story-wise to return him into the current story arc.

Vulkan would be a boon for sure. After Sanguinius, he's my second favorite primarch, and the Salamanders are my second favorite marine chapter after Blood Angels. I love their humanity and humility, and doing up a squad of Firedrake terminators sounds like a TON of fun. Nice change of pace to painting Red, for sure. I wonder where Nocturn wound up with the great warp storm spanning the Imperium? Would be curious to see if the Salamanders were also in the Dark Imperium with the Blood Angels, or if any other first founding or second founding chapters are bombing around up north of the scar.
We shall see. Take it easy.
