Word has it will be released in March of 2014.

That's what I am hearing too, but as always, grain of salt.

Expect Vendetta's to increase 20-40 in points cost.

Rumours from same source mentioned that it could be an upgrade to the Valkyrie, something like "Upgrade any Valkyrie in the squadron to a Vendetta pattern for xx points" which would replace all weaponry with 3x TL Lascannons.

Again, salt, grain.. etc.

Another pseudo-Titan (as I call anything along the lines of a Riptide)? Oh, joy. The sharpest cheddary cheese you've ever sampled from those ladies with hairnets at the grocery store produce aisle.

Problem is, I'd think that'll happen, and Necrons will get one late 2014 to early 2015. 40k will just become Pacific Rim, and all the people will rejoice.

Knight paladins are a thing in the fluff, tho and IIRC there's been a few people who wished for them, feels like those aren't as shoe-horned as the rest

The new IG unit will be a monsterous creature unit, about 25% taller than a Wraithknight, that is basically just a giant sentinel with hundreds of imperial guardsmen strapped to its hull.

It's armed with a multilaser and a shooting attack that is 80 str 3 ap- lasgun attacks at BS3, and it has a 2+ cover save from all the Guardsmen on it.

I would love a doctrine: renegade, that allows you to be battle brothers with chaos space marines. This would be great for red corsairs, word bearers and alpha legion. Wishful thinking, I know.

Whoa! That would be cool! And on that train of thought, I would like a doctrine: Genestealer Cult, allows your IG army to be battle brothers with
Tyranids.

I would like to see an April codex release at the latest.

Heavy Weapon Platoons allowed to be taken as a Heavy Support Choice.

A buff to Sentinels.

And IG Missile Launchers get Flak missiles access too.
