That is absolutely the most unhelpful statement in the world.

And Before or after lunch tomorrow I'll do something.

Lets see...a few months after the 4Ed came out...so thats what? 2004?2005?

Ehh. They don't deserve it over 'Crons, we've been waiting longer.

but they are the most deserving 4th ed codex. We know crons are next, but witch hunters and tau should be soon. Inless they bust out dark angels or black templars.

We just dont have enough Spass mareens!

Logically, Tau should be soon, since they do deserve it. But the great Speiss Mareenz defy logic anyday!!! Says GW...

I agree that tau need an update but I would just like to say; in the last 2 games I have played involving tau, they have come out on top :O And I was using the uber-invincible marinesssss in one of those battles!

Tau can kick butt real nice, even with their old codex. Studied the codex for hours, they have some really really REALLY hard hitting shooting, no matter how old their codex is. their Shas'O (the one with BS5) HQ option is very powerful. Then Markerlights, dude those things are just great... allright they only work on 4+, but still.
Tau are great for an old codex army in my opinion, in contrast to Necrons for example. The Necrons just really need it, and I hope that soon my warriors aren't any longer going to gather dust in my showcase.

If there were a "Like" Button, i would definately click it 50 times for this post.

Sooooooooooooo... rumours?

There doesn't appear to be any new rumours with regards to the Necron's eventual release, and it must be said that an August release is looking inlikely too, alas.

I'm sure that there'll be another thread, perhaps one we can remember, remember, as/when GW deign to let us know when exactly they'll be wanting our money.
