Also, he just saw a sprue with five models on it. More than likely, we'll get two sprues i na box.

Frankly, I could write a better written, more balanced codex than any of these mentioned above in half the time it takes GW to do it.

That's what I'm saying. There's no reason a codex published in the pages of WD and then made available for download as a PDF would have to have bad rules, bad fluff, and a bad army list simply because it was in WD.

No, you're right, there's not.

But I'm looking at precedence here. All of the recent GW white dwarf codices have sucked.

I've seen your Codex.

I debate your better-written and 'balanced' part.

But yeah. More likely we'll get two sprues of five. They're not Grey Knights, they're closer to Tactical Marines in that regard.

Then go on IGMB and do that. I need more input on it anyway.

With the changes that GW is announcing today with the resin/plastic hybrid stuff... I'm having an overbearing sense of foreboding on this topic :(

If SOB's do get a WD codex...going by everything GW has recently done several things will happen:

1. all Sister' bits will increase in price
2. White Dwarf will go up in price another 50p for the "special issue"

I swear...the resin thing was so promising until prices were jacked up for it (Aside from a few of the single models)

Hands up for a poll thread discussing how many months until GW customers refuse to buy from GW because they're "Desire for money : Desire for a good game" ratio is heavily weighted in a bad way?

People say they won't pay but like another guy said in the resin thread these models are like crack to crack addicts to the majority of people who buy models.

oo your from Herts to Scarey

I dont know..but Ive become very disenchanted with them over the past couple of years.

I'm so glad I have all the sisters models I need, so will only have to buy the WD (assuming rumour is true) and eventually the new codex.

So . . . no SoBs on the Citadel Finecast list. Wat?

I said in the Necron thread that because no resin models were coming it was a potential sign that necrons were on the way but now that you have made me notice Sisters were getting the same treatment I am quite confused...

Maybe they thought that there was no need to repackage the metal/finecast sisters when they will be getting plastic models soon.

*sigh* it could be very good or bad, depending....

This sums it up perfectly.

I hate reading rumors. Because the majority of the time i end up dissapointed, or frustrated. Think i'd rather be oblivious, and be super happy when i see the advanced orders section of the GW site.

So why am i reading this right? =p Gotta love waiting games.

This was posted in a different thread and due to the turn of events on this thread, I found it relevant...

There are 2 slots that say "CLASSIFIED" on them... Necrons or Sisters you think? Or just eluding to the 2 chapters of space marines that were expunged from records? I don't know anymore.... GW has stopped making sense to me.

Because they're both supposed to be coming in short order.

All of the pictures are grouped based on army affiliation, having a single Necron or Sister wouldn't make sense with this arrangement.

In one case, the "classified" box is situated between 40k ranges and in the other case it's situated between WHFB lines. I'd say the first is either Necron or SoB unless the DE are up for another wave yet. The other I'd think is Fantasy, maybe another TK model (are all the Lords and Heroes now accounted for? it can't be) or even an Ogre character?

I keep looking at it for some sort of pattern beyond the fact that one section is 40k and another is fantasy, is it alphabetical? or something else? most likely no pattern at all and I am just desperate for something new...

First one probably Wracks/Grotesques, second one probably Ushabti with bows.

Of course both are behind Dark Eldar and Tomb Kings, pattern solved thank you! So I guess this poster has nothing to do with sisters or necrons.

And here I was dusting off Inquisitor Lok

Oh WOW! Look at all the beautiful TAU models in that poster, they're so... wait, wha?

It is a hint that new Sororitas and Necron miniatures are so close that repackaging old ones isn't economic.

Tau get these:
56-60 TAU ETHEREAL WITH HONOUR BLADE £9.50
56-40 TAU SNIPER DRONE TEAM £23.00
and are rumoured to get a release after Necrons and Sororitas.

And oh I DO so hope that for the third time in a row we'll get our army book right before the new edition happens...

Your right again sorry its late ^^ not thinking straight!

what scares me is, thats not even half the eldar. halequin sc, avatar, autarch. thats it?! really!?

btw, the 1 clasified might be celestine. the only sister sc.

It occurs to me that out of the 39 WH40k minis shown on the Finecast poster, only 7-8 are not special characters or HQ choices.

-Zoanthrope
-Hive Guard
-Genestealer Broodlord
-Painboy
-Death Jester
-some sort of Harlequin

-and possibly whatever that Dark Eldar to the right of Lelith is that I don't recognize.

So I'm really hoping that that Classified thing is a Sisters character. Saint Celestine would make a lot of sense. Deep down, I know it's probably just a blank placeholder to fill out the chart, or worse, but a man can dream though, a man can dream...

Hmm. Resin cast of the current Celestine or ... A brand new sculpt? If you have to dream, dream big.
