If a new army seemed plausible, I'd say it would be Cathay or Nippon. A wushu army would actually be pretty sweet... just like Brettonnian archers got plastic stakes, Cathay might get plastic awful subtitles, which forces charging enemies to take Stupidity tests.

So much interest.. had to do the whole song...

Fishmen. Fishmen. Roly-poly fishmen.
Fishmen. Fishmen. Paint them up. Yumm!

In the morning, painting happy Fishmen. In the evening, floating in the dip.

Fishmen. Fishmen. Roly-poly fishmen.
Fishmen. Fishmen. Paint them up. Yumm!

Paint your Fishmen any way you want to. They'll still look like ugly walking fish.

Fishmen. Fishmen. Roly-poly fishmen.
Fishmen. Fishmen. Paint them up. Yumm!

I took my Fishmen out to win a tourney. Didn't have to pay to get them in.

Fishmen. Fishmen. Roly-poly fishmen.
Fishmen. Fishmen. Paint them up. Yumm!

They don't get ward saves. They don't wear armor. They suck in close combat. They don't shoot guns.

Fishmen. Fishmen. Roly-poly fishmen.
Fishmen. Fishmen. Paint them up. Yumm!

Roly-poly Fishmen are never seen entered in Italian Grand Tournaments played by Oriental Women! Yeahh!

Fishmen. Fishmen. Roly-poly fishmen.
Fishmen. Fishmen. Paint them up. Yumm!

If Wizards take Redubbed Voices, dispel scrolls don't work. The wizards' mouth movements are out of sync with the words he is speaking, which prevents the scroll from working properly.

And so, due to rising costs of maintaining the Golden Throne, the Emperor's finest accountants spoke to the Demigurg. A deal was forged in blood and extensive paperwork for a sub-prime mortgage with a 5/1 ARM on the Imperial Palace. And lo, in the following years the housing market did tumble and the rate skyrocketed leaving the Emperor's coffers bare. A dark time has begun for the Imperium, the tithes can not keep up with the balloon payments and the Imperial Palace and its contents, including the Golden Throne, have fallen into foreclosure. With an impending auction on the horizon mankind holds its breath as it waits to see who will gain possession of the corpse-god and thus, the fate of humanity......

I shed a single tear every time I see an image macro posted on Dakka. Occasionally I see an image macro even posted outside of a "post stupid crap" thread like the OT thread or the 40k humor thread, and that's just awful.
EDIT: Wait, news & rumors? This is the new fantasy thread? I thought that this tab was the "40k humor - some randomness" thread... which to be honest I think should be in the OT section given that it is basically people reposting 40k images from chans without end. Uhg.

DOUBLE EDIT: so as to not make this post a waste of space, does anyone know when the new army will be released, if supposedly it will come after the next 2 books?

Back on topic:

I for one think GW can easily pick Nippon armies to make.
They can just look at sengoku basara for ideas -_-

I mean they did a good job on Clan Eshin , could work!

Closing as this thread has meandered into Owl Country. We all know Iguanadons are afraid of owls.

Feel free to post in discussions as the rumor value has fallen away.
