I took a sneaky look a the latest Gee-dub blog for today, and at the bottom of the page it says there will be a big announcement on Monday (so, the 6th). I'm willing to bet this is the DE or DH codexes, or some FW stuff. Just thought I'd let you all know.

Apologies for no linky, my iPod doesn't copy URL's.

I some how i think its a price incresse with a picture of GW shreding money.

Hmmm.... interesting! Will have to check back Monday to see what it is

Hopefully it really is something big, not just getting our hopes up to dash them against the rocks!

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/blogPost.jsp?aId=12600006a, chances are good they'll be announcing the Games Day release

Everything you've been told is a lie!

If they announce Dark Eldar with Monday's announcement then actually show the models at Games Day, that would be a hell of a one-two punch.

Weren't they having a contest to give away a RoBG? They'll probably just announce the winner.

Hey, we all know that the only way to address claims that Blood Angels and Space Puppies are over powered is to boost the Marines codex to the same level!

What's that? There's people that play stuff besides Marines? That's just a vicious rumor.

Just had a look through the old blogs, and the closing date was today, so they probaly will just announce the winner

You mean the Female Marines and Grey Marines codexes?

Hmm big announcement. Big = Apocalypse = big kit = big bucks = happy fuhrers.

Nah, prolly Dark Eldar. Would be nice to have the naysayers finally shut their gobs.

Yes the female grey marines

Ohoh. There goes the thread.

Can't wait for five more pages of HILARIOUS "GW want to sell marines" jokes.

Meantime I'll be perched, cat like, on my desk waiting for whatever Monday brings.

I definitely want it to be Dark Eldar =D

Been waiting this long though . . . so I can always wait a bit longer =p

Well the Advance Order section is blank again. That tends to be the precursor to showing off new minis, so I'd put solid dough on it being the first peek at the new DE line

Pre-orders usually go up on Tuesdays though.

DE won't be pre-order, I can guarantee that. Octobers release has been known for some time to be High Elves and Misty Mountains.

I think GW saw that Duke Nukem Forever was announced today at PAX and decided to play their hand. There was probably a stalemate between 3DRealms and GW over who would play their hand first.

what are the misty mountains?

Yeah, this. Doubt it'll be anything important. They never tell you anything on WnT

A WOTR/LOTR army

Between this (if it's Dark Eldar) and the recent news of Duke Nukem, I might have an excitement overload.

...or a Space Marine overload, I can't tell which...

Either way, probably more plastic crack to go mad over.

As great as it'd be to have a DE announcement, I felt like it was a casual remark. "...and be sure to stop by on Monday as we have a big announcement for you and plenty of great content..." Is the great content part of the announcement or on par with it? What else does GW consider a big announcement though?

I heard they're launching a new clothing & "merch" section of the online store next week, starting with blood angels, dark angels and black templar snuggies.

Can't wait *giggles*

DE? DH? No, it will instead be everyone's favorite fluff destroyer presenting his new Tau Empire codex. With allied guard/smurfs.
