(i don't know if this goes in the rules interpretations or not but eh)
Well for on if you haven't noticed that the GW nids are going a new update but do they really need one in light of others?

I propose that if there going to keep postponing the Necrons and the DE they need to have another small update just to some of the rules and maybe add a troop choice or two i mean nothing big just something to give hope the GW is working on something for us players out there.

Not to say that you know SUB codex's like the blood angels need one way more than DE or Necrons cause you know. Space wolfs get that jaws power that in theory could phase out a Necron army.
(Inflammatory remarks i know)
To this date Ive sent two letters to GW

Truthfully I would like to see this also.

Just a little bit of love for those unupdates codex, a 3-4 page IF EVEN! PDF with a few changes and TADA! The armies are more competitive and you have happy customers!

Hmm sounds almost like a Phase-out to me. Some-one at GW apparently feels that certain races/armies are "Not Popular" enough to qualify for a Dex... and subsequently additional Minis.

Of course, I could be wrong.... It's not like they have done anything like that before.

Of all the races of the universe the Squats have the longest memories and the shortest tempers. They are uncouth, unpredictably violent, and frequently drunk. Overall, I'm glad they're on our side!

They have squatted (ironically and from which that term was derived) squats. They were space dwarves lol.

Truthfully DE and Necrons and even Inquisition have a fairly strong player bases. I have 1 of each at my LGS! (not many people at this LGS sadly). Orks are probably up there with at least 2-3 next to marines 3-5 (depends per week).

So really, they just are putting off the major updates it seems because they require a HUGE overhaul. I would still like to see though they hire 2-3 guys that just fix old codexes and rules queries and put out updates regularly.

QFT. My FLGS has a DE, SoB, Nids, Necrons...there is actually quite a support base for many older codices. Kinda why there is so much talk about it now

You need to have a bit more patience.

Necrons, Sister, and Inquisition will eventually get Codices, but it'll be a while.

Yea, we all know they are getting updates. GW have basically said they plan to update everything to 5th, because 4th was supposedly a nightmare YMMV on that one.
Either way, just be patient they are getting done. Hell supposedly the DE are practically done.
