Good news. This is the best time in the hobby. Full of promise. GW lets us down each time and we know it but secretly we're hoping that this is the edition that GW gives us a balanced game that can also be played competitively at tournaments. I'm loving it.

I can do better than that and supply the correct month.
September is now SeptOgre and the Ogre Kingdoms release.
Ever since Space Hulk two years ago we get a "mystery box" rumor now every year. As I said last year when the rumor started up again, have fun waiting for that. GW is not going to do that every year just because they did it once in 2009.

And the new monster kit for Ogres in SeptOgre should be huge.

@agnosto
1) expensive- almost definitely, its is GW we are talking about after all
2.) long time to paint- yeah, looks like but then it depends on personal capability as well
3.) dying to cannon fire- well, you might be surprised here

I don't believe it will be a september release, just a september preview, though I will be pleasantly surprised if I am wrong.

You know, if I ever design a fantasy wargame, no army will have access to cannons or there will be a rule that reflects the fact that it is bloody difficult to hit any given object with a single cannon shot.

Wait, it actualy said flat out that the Army Book will be released in Septogre? There is a difference between a preview and a release...You better not be lying to me Kroothawk, or I'll be eating Peking Kroothawk for dinner by the end of this week...

The relevant text, retranslated, reads:
What is big, mean and very hungry? No, it is not our chief editor, it's of course an Ogre! Next month, the Ogre Kingdoms will spread out on the pages of the White Dwarf and bring along monsters bigger than houses and guts bigger than men. Let us all marvel at the newest army book next month and find out, how the Ogres manage in battle.

I think this means no "special box" at all. I've always been very skeptical of that one... this makes sense as it leaves more room for the necrons after.
Looking forward to Ogres being interesting and relevant again! The limited army builds for 8th were a huge bummer for most, even though the army itself was better than in 7th.

GW is not going to do that every year just because they did it once in 2009. Even if it does materialize this year, it's not going to be an every year thing, yet the rumor will probably appear every year. 1 time does not equal "n" times.
September is SEPTOGRE. There are some really cool items coming for Ogres. Who needs a "mystery box" anyway? Besides, given the new level of secrecy at GW every box is a mystery box till just days before it's available to order.

He wrote the Battle Missions book largely.
Also, Octogre will never compare to Orktober. Orktober is my favorite month, and my favorite submarine.
