Or an Inquisition Codex.

Anything else gets GW a harsh letter from me.

Even Squats/Demi-Urg? I want me some tourney-approved Space Dwarfs

I would love to collect Ad-Mech!

Complete with space-pygs!

Something similar to Trollbloods would be awesome, actually. They could be resilient like the Space Marines but super dope in assault. Also they'd have Feel No Pain or We'll Be Back ('Tough')

Just use 'Counts As' John. I mean, that's what you were so adamant at telling me.

LatD haven't lost their list and just use 'Counts As'.

Sounds to me like in chinese whispers fashion, "New 40k Codex for Imperials" became "New 40k race for Imperials".

I agree that it's probably just Space Wolves.

I heard it's possibly Chinese Space Wolves from some guy called Neil. Awesome scoop Neil!

Why should GW release a new Imperial faction when they could more easily refresh one of the existing factions such as SoB which has a proven following.

I deplore any expansion of Imperial choices while alien factions remain under-supported.

Simple test KK that you can use to determine whether you and GW are on the same page:

1. Is the army in question:

A). Not Marines.
B). Marines.

If A)., do B instead. If B)., create new Codex.

When is GD Chicago anyway?

It's probably Space Wolves.

Chinese Space Wolves from Chicago.

Sounds awesome.

They can have tommyguns hidden in violin cases and wear funky hats and speak with irritating Italian accents.

I'm fairly certain it was going to be Adeptus Mechanicus. I know I've seen a cover of the codex somewhere and I'm sure it wasn't a hoax or fan art job.

Got proof to back this up?

We all know in our hearts it's going to be Blood Ravens of Blood.

My dream? Heroes of the Imperium (Adeptus Mech, Inq, Arbites, Assassins together at last).

My other dream? Hoards of Chaos (Cultists, traitor guard, mutants, psykers)

But I know in my heart it's Blood Ravens of Blood.

I heard it was an army of Chinese Void Whales. Sadly, you automatically lose with them if you face an Ork army with Kaptin Badrukk.

Sphincter.

I gotta admit I'm very skeptical on this one. Given that their marketing "window" seems to have shrunk to less than 3 months, that'd mean we're getting the new army this year, and if that's the case we would have heard about it by now.

Now, if this is a FW army, I could believe it. FW was rumored to be doing AdMech after the Ork stuff they're currently working on.

Wouldn't Adeptus Mechanicus just be a load of techpriests, servitors, walkers, tanks and more servitors with Guard like infantry support?

And doesn't IG already kind of cover that ground?

Anyway, I'm going to hop onto the "They're just going to announce the release of Space Puppies" band wagon.

Not that I can post a link too I'm afraid, it wasn't online. Fairly certain it was a GW staffer showing me the release schedule for the coming year a few months ago. They get print outs of the new things coming and I'm sure it was a print out of the cover I saw (in fact the more I think about it the more I'm positive this was where I saw it).

All this speculation triggered by the word of a redshirt?

It could be like that with ALL NEW models, backed by some special rules to make them a bit different to IG.

Which is why I'm saying it's a FW project at most.

And this is bad how?

I see relentless gun servitors, multi-armed close combat servitors, robots, funky walkers, barroque steam punk death rays...

OOO! I want my Adeptus Mech army now!

But I know it's @$$%ing Blud Ravens of Blud.

I guess it would

Don't!

Don't what?

I’m fairly certain that they will do an Ad-Mech army eventually. Will they reveal it at GD Chicago?
Hell No!
Space Wolves are next and they have already begun to plant hints in WD about that. So why reveal a new imperial army (even if it’s just concept sketches) that might take away some of the heat being generated by the Space Wolf anticipation. They want people talking about space puppies going into the release, not Ad-Mech. First year marketing students can tell you that you don’t undermine your upcoming product by hyping something else.
So they only think I would expect you will see at GD Chicago are some of the greens for the upcoming Space Wolfs. But maybe they are holding those back for GD UK?


Dosadi

Fishmen.

I call BS on this one, no way such an army would slip through rumorwise.
