Perhaps some sweet servants of omnissiah!

As long as Jervis continues to breathe GW won't even consider bringing Squats back. Saying that, I wish him a very long life

Well, Squats are not happening. Much like Zoats. But Demiurg? They're still kosher, I think.

Having said that, I can't see anything being "dedicated" to beyond a three-month limited splash release window.

The thing is, stuff that grows under rocks could figure out a way to both support the low model count skirmish game AND make sure it drives core sales. Just make each warband an entry in a proper codex. Inquisitorial Retinue HQ for Guard? Chaos Cult Troops for CSM? Eldar Ranger Posse Elite for eldar? Freebooters Elite for Orks?

Simply match the box content in the rules and you can have a bunch of kits on the shelves that sell to everyone and their mother. You could even go full GW and make sure you can take multiple units in the same FOC and in numbers larger than the box provides.

This *is* GW that we're talking about here though; this is the company that decided it was too much effort to support Warhammer Quest any more. Everyone I knew that owned that game went out and regularly bought boxes/blisters of the evil forces to populate their dungeons... eventually ending up with enough models for multiple small Warhammer armies.

Isn't the mystery box rumored for september? You think this close and we would start getting more info from other knowen sources.

Its all just a rumor...

We wont be getting a new boxset....

Yeah, is there anything more solid on this? I don't see any update to the OP and it's a long thread...

Yah, that's bassicly my line of thinking ATM in all honesty.

Very skeptical about this, given that Inquisition was rewritten and rebranded as Dark Heresy (and related media).

Do you mean Inquisitor? Because that's not the same game.

Everything you have been told is a lie...

And with that...
