My brother is planning on selling his tau and starting a necron army, does anyone have any idea when they'll get a new codex?

2011 hopefully Q2 or Q4... I believe that Grey Knights are Q1 from the rumors...

Mattieu~~~~ It's not that eldar are bad, it's that they require a lot of intergration between units. Also, that doesnt prove anything other than GW has a huge hard-on for marines, and, given the option between making a xeno the best psykers or making a marine the best psyker, they will 9 times out of 10 choose the marine.

I thought Necrons were supposed to get the update before GK. While we're on the subject, is it true that Matt Ward is writing the new Codex, or is that just a rumor?

Is the Rumors for the GK's, Exclusive GK codex? or just a inquisition codex?

I have wanted to start Sisters of battle for so long now but they are so damn expensive

They are making the Daemonhunters into Grey Knights and the Witch hunters codex into the Sisters of Battle I think.

Current speculation puts both Tau and Necron Codex in the summer 2011-summer 2012 time frame, with Necrons earlier.

Take it with a grain of salt though. 3 years ago when 5th came out there was a buzz all over the place about how there'd be a Codex: Inquisition and Necron update. While the Grey Knights seem semi-confirmed, I'm still not completely sold on Necrons.

Nevertheless, grab some battle forces. The plastic kits will probably stay, as they're one of the more high quality 3rd ed sets. They might just jack up the price when the new release comes and it would never hurt to have some basic core troops (unless Immortals do become troops, in which case load up on those buggers). Destroyers are also awesome and I doubt they would discontinue or nerf those anytime soon.
