If reading the other posts, it dosn't look like it will be Inquition. Maybe Grey Knights by themselves so don't be surprised there is no Inquition, Or it's Inquition, but no GK or SoB.

Last year, Harry said that Grey Knights would not be `this' (ie last) year, but not too far away. If we are correctly interpreting Brass Scorpion's hits, a Grey Knights/Inquisition codex late this year (it has to be late, with 8th edition dominating the middle of the year) would fit what Harry said perfectly.

My recall isn't perfect. When exactly in the year did he say it? I am not rying to be obtuse it's just been awhile since I have been at Warseer.

It just seems that if he said it in late october or later then it would just seem redundant.

From what we know, the next 40k release is missions. That leaves one more Codex for Q4 to placate the non-WFB 40k crowd.

If Inquisition hadn't been pulled, I'd have guessed Necrons.

With the advances in plastic Termies (Assault Termies, then SHulk Termies, then SWolf Termies), I wouldn't be surprised to see some very nice plastic GK Temies come out, along with the previewed plastic Stormies for an Inquisition Codex.

Seriously, wrap your head around that and you'll realize how asinine what you said is.


Wrap your head around this... By admitting someone leaked something to him, any GW employee who would get his friend in trouble should already be able to link his friend to him and the fact that his friend is leaking information... by saying "My friend told me secrets, I'm just better at keeping them then he is" doesn't save anyone from getting in trouble... it just makes you a tease... He has already openly admitted he knows something and therefor his friend is leaking company secrets... it really shouldn't matter to any manager worth his salt what exactly those secrets are...

Technically Battle missions comes out the month before the Blood Angels....

GK, Cron,Tau, DA/BT are all good bets, more likely is a flushing out of the Marine, IG, NID and Ork dexes...The Nids still have a ton of possibilities as do the IG.

I'm willing to go DA/BT this year ( it all comes down to costs vs sales) then Cron and DE/Eldar Tau next year... considering the amount of re do's needed for DE and Cron.

There's really no reason to get on his case about this, guys. He pretty much already gave us an answer, and this badgering is just going to make a friendly tipster feel unappreciated and unwelcome.

Based on what he said about a 'popular rumor blog' giving away the next codex on Jan 13, and the fact that BOLS had a Jan 13 blog about the =I= codex disappearing at that time . . . well, 2+2=4 anyway

From recent pulling of the Codex and some models off the site, I believe the next codex after Blood angels will be leaning towards Inquisition!

GW is going for a Marine/not Marine/Marine/not Marine release schedule right now if I am not mistaken. I'm not sure I'd count Grey Knights as Marines because of all the Inquisitorial stuff they've got. Stickmonkey saw Grey Knight Terminator greens a few months ago, but there's quite a long time between the initial greenstuff sculpt and an actual model in your hands.

If you look at the idea that a codex gets taken off the shelves about a month before an "incoming!" article, and Brassmonkey's cryptic post about "the wait will be longer than that", it's perfectly reasonable to expect a Witchhunters/Sisters of Battle codex release. The recent removal of the 10 model box from some webstores also points towards this.

Necrons have been said to be well over a year away, so I wouldn't count on them anytime soon. Absolutely nothing has been seen on Sisters, but GW has been pretty tight-lipped as of late. Tau are an okay bet - they need a new codex more than anything, as most of their models are still pretty nice. As a small, gap-filling release, they'd do well. That's just unfounded speculation on my part though.

I hope it is inquisition. Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they are not out to get you.

Dark Eldar! MUWAHAHAHA etc 12 years waiting without a etc why isn't my book coming out first etc.

All the hints point towards something Inquisition related. If I had to guess, I'd say Grey Knights and it's about time.

Still holding up hope for a DE codex after though...

I think you'll probably find its battle missions next for 40k and probably one more codex this year most likely Non SM. I don't have any facts to back it up but I reckon it will be tau.

You don't need to say etc. three times in one sentence. Once at the end will suffice.

I doubt it's Dark Eldar. Until there's models in the stores, I won't believe it. Here's hoping GW makes light of them and releases some teaser images as an April Fool's joke this year. Speaking of, have GW ever done an April Fool's joke?

Anyway for what little it's worth Inquisition was the hint the local Red Shirts are dropping, pointing out they can't reorder the big =I=.

If we get that I promise to do the happy dance.

Oh, I don't? Here I was under the assumption that three wasn't even nearly enough for a Dark Eldar related posting, but I'm glad we have stand up fellows like yourself to interject pro-tips such as this. I will, of course take your guidance under careful consideration in the future.

If it is Inquisition, I can only pray they get rid of the ally system....

However, if this is the case, it sounds like a single codex. Will it replace both the Demonhunter and Witch Hunter codexes?

If a Grey Knight codex is released this year I will be a very happy man. Hell, I'm at half mast just thinking about it right now. With the new advance in Terminator sculpts I think new Grey Knight Terminators would just be unreal.
