Watch, the LoC comes out in December (*changing* GW's typical business practice. Just as planned...), Rubrics come out a week before the new year, and CSM codex hits in January. Fulfills everything Sad Panda and Atia have said.

I just want to know if BA will get an update.


I'll bet wearing a Maple Loafs jersey for an entire week that BA's get updated at some point this year...
(and yet, despite likely becoming Marines +1 again, it won't be obnoxiously OP enough for certain people to stop whining endlessly about BA's supposedly being the most hard-done by and neglected MEQ army!)

I'm honestly expecting to see the rumored new Rubrics sometime in October myself, as the last two big releases for Chaos Marines have been during the spookiest month of the year.

Any thoughts on what is after Space Wolves?

Maybe Orks? They have a starter box with the SW, are in upcoming White Dwarves and are rumoured for new formations.

I saw rumours on admech getting a combined book with some new units. That be cool even though they're still new.

I also saw rumours on a Dark Eldar update in the fall. (I can only hope)

Otherwise, I don't give a hoot.

So are there any other starter boxes being released on the horizon?

Its a bit up in the air I think.
Pre Xmas rumours indicated, IG and Nids would get an update this year but they have gone cold.
With GS cult getting the new boxed set, Nids might get a redo though.

Orks are a strong possibility too, I think IA8 (Kastorel) has come down off FW. Theyve had a mini release with the Wolves lately and are in need of an update.
After that, who knows.

I really feel like they need to hit up some of the older dexs now. Guard, CSM, demons.

Chaos next year.
IG got their 'update' with that supplement.
SW and Tau are now updated.
Doubt Orks would get anything as they've had a new Codex and supplement(s).

'Nids... no strong rumours but no "No" either. Depends if you include Genestealer Cult as part of Tyranids. As a race they sell well enough to warrant an update (if that's how GW queue work).

Sisters, no. They're on their way out with more stuff disappearing (and skipping "Last Chance to Buy"). A shame as P. Kelly wanted to do an Eldar vs Sisters supplement but it mustn't have got traction.

Skitarii/Ad Mech joint release was rumoured but as a possibility. This is because it was considered and some designed units didn't get sign-off/release. So a lot of the work would already be done. Plus both of those factions sold well. Maybe a late Summer filler if it does happen.

Dark Eldar rumour did not weigh favourably on the rumour tracker. Plus having loads of rules detail before models/art is uncommon - as that's against how the design at GW usually works. Maybe a supplement with formations, one new boxed unit and a "Start Collecting!" is what would be reasonable once it finally happens.

As for "Start Collecting!", these can be expected to continue and bundle old(er) models at a discount as releases/supplements come out.

Wouldnt really call that IG suppliment an update at all being honest. I fully expect to see a new IG dex or release.

Orks got a "new" Codex? When exactly?

And Chaos were rumoured for a release later this year.

Orks were only done about 18 months ago.

Which is just short of the 2 year cycle GW "seem" to stil be running.

CSMs, Daemons, Sisters, Nids and Guard all have older books than Orks.

Regarding IG and Chaos, that's based on consistent rumour sources from News here and other places. And I wouldn't class it the same either but that appears to be it for the foreseeable future.

As for Orks, I take it back. You're right; my mistake.
