Very excited this is still a thing.

Not according to Warseer. They inexplicably closed their rumor thread on the subject, citing that 40k Radio said no mystery box, and that more recently the Dark Elf leaks for October somehow disprove a release in November for Inquisition. Going off their past attitude towards leaks or rumors thread closures, I'd say we can pretty much call this one confirmed for release in November!

I abandoned Warseer ages ago. Pretty much nothing ever happens there anymore. About the only thing happening there is some really good painting logs.

~Tim?

I do find their background section better than here, oh and ADB also posts there.

As much as it saddens me I think we're going to be disappointed on this one. I can think of no reason why we haven't seen any pics 'leaked' at the same time as the Dark Elf ones.

As much as I like the DE models the only interest they hold for me is the potential for new HE core (why oh why didn't we get any GW, ours are about the worst looking in the game).

I was really looking forward to a special box (woulda preferred blood bowl) and would have instantly shelled out for something as pretty as space hulk with barely a thought. Dread fleet however was awful but I hope that doesn't put GW off the idea of special boxes, it was the game that was bad, not the model of a one off game.

I'm not sure we would be seeing leaks yet. We all know GW have tightened up a lot and the dark elf leaks have only come thick and fast close to launch date. If Inquisitor is t due to November we might only start seeing some cryptic teasers at Games Day and more info next month as White dwarf gets leaked out again.

Still holding on to hope that there will be an Inquisition box set this year.

DE are a October release. The box is supposed to be a November release. That's kinda a big one, right?

Although I did hear they were recently laughed out of Wal-Mart, with their prices.

My understanding was that it wasn't recently, and also involved their list of "Demands" - such as their own aisle, no discounts on closeout stock, etc etc. I'm sure someone here would have a link to some info.

Then again, Gorkamorka is also the game that nearly bankrupted the company.

For everybody asking about Gorkamorka, remember they tooled a lot of new stuff; the Ork vehicles, the wartrakk, and the basic boyz themselves. On top of that people were already weary of the six month games at that time, and few players liked Orks. Remember, little Tommy plays Space Marines, not Orks. Apparently they spent so much, and and made so little (it was given away as a free subscription WD offer) it nearly bankrupted them.

At that time (here in Australia, at least) there were several choice of the free Subscription game, I'm pretty sure I picked up 2 copies of GM, and one of Necromunda (which was essentially out of production by that time as well) with 3 years worth of of subscription, all paid for at once.

Well seeing as the rumour said September/October and we've not heard anything new saying November, other than speculation, then I would say no. The only thing DE in October proves is that DE are in October. I'm not saying the box doesn't exist but every other special box has been September/ October. I would like this rumour to be true but at this point we have nothing much other than the original rumour and a whole heap of speculation and wish listing.

So did you just miss it or are you ignoring the more recent rumor about a November release from a guy who also accurately listed the DE release list and prices before they were announced? Exact release windows on rumors can always change many months down the road.

And the past release schedule of GW doesn't necessarily have any bearing on current release patterns. If that were true we would still be getting 2-3 codexes a year rather than one every other month as we are now. Things can and do change.

theres a rumour about a second wave for dark elves in November, so we may see 2 months of fantasy followed by hobbits in December,

https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.440714519370778.1073741827.152899918152241&type=1

This page has a couple picks posted with supposed 2 wave models.

Is this little snippet from the latest WD a hint to the upcoming game?

Or a deadly standoff where rival Inquisitor bands fight to halt cultist activities while simultaneously attempting to find out if their allies are 'corrupted'

I bloody well hope so dammit

This is looking good. I'm not too bothered about the box set (though it might turn out pretty good), I just want my plastic black guard.

Just look it up in the WD, or google the quote man!

Ok ok, I'm teasing you! In the Jeremy Vetock section there is a list of possible game scenarios, this one was suggested as one of them. Might be totally nothing, but might also be a hint.

Actually, come to think of it that column COULD have been talking about Inquisitor, without talking about Inquisitor.

It was an article from Jeremy Vetock, where he talked about designing multiplayer narrative scenarios for his annual Halloween games, where he talked about small scale games a fair bit.

It would be pretty awesome if your own characters were capable of being corrupted. Better than just a small version of 40k with a handful of Imperium and chaos fighting it out.

If they did this, I hope you will be able to include things like small SM units (DOW 2), Adeptus Arbites, Ad Mech and others to represent planets and evenSM Chapters becoming corrupted. Then you could have campaigns re enacting a planet's rebellion against the Imperium or the Blood Ravens' civil war.

I'm a bit out of touch with rumors and when they surface but I do know GW has been clamping down. If this is a real thing and is due for release in November - when would we possibly see some leaks starting to appear ? A month ? Two weeks ?
Nephilim

If it shows up in WD, about a week before the WD comes out. (last sat of the month)

Is it possible this actually links up with the AS codex release? Someone was the I symbol and assumed inquisition, instead of sororitas?

There's a couple too many details for that.

Some years ago, the download of the WD Codex for Blood Angels was for free and nobody made a fuss about it.
Now they charge a lot of money for an overdue download for the slightly updated Sororitas WD Codex (with some essential minis OOP), and everybody goes crazy, dreaming of a full new Codex and wishlisting a miniature release.

This digital release has no consequence on non-digital releases, other than giving GW an excuse to not work on Sororitas for the next two years. Now they can say that Sororitas have currrent rules, would be embarrasing to admit that Sororitas got nothing new since 10 years and counting.

C:WH was for free on download as well, for a while. What's your point?

'slightly updated' You're already wrong about this. There are screen shots of more than just a cut and paste (points and units changes, new wargear, new missions, apoc formations, etc) and the book is over 109 pages at this point (granted e-reader pages, but still).

I get you don't like it, but don't ignore facts.

They could have decided to include a single Sororitas mini in the boxset and see how much it goes for on eBay... gauge the market.

Guys, I know there isn't much to talk about here re the Inquisition game but things are starting to drift off topic. There is a separate thread for Sisters discussion over here http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/554140.page

Back to the rumour's. In the Iron Hands rumour thread here http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/556865.page
there are a list of leaks from the November White Dwarf - and no mention of an Inquisitor game at all so far. I know it is hard to judge these things but that probably indicates no release for November now.

On a happier note the Forge World thread here http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/549764.page has some info from the new Horus Heresy rule book and it makes passing reference to a Rogue Trader Militant Armies list. If I can't have some Inquisition then I'll happily have some Rogue Trader instead !

Warseer are idiots, even GW staff hate them. They came down hard on the poster who suggested Tyranids were getting a big beatie that was bigger than a Carnifex.

You're not a real GW forum poster unless you've been banned from Warseer half a dozen times.

Let's not slag off other forums, OK?

Also, as much as I want this game to be a reality, it doesn't look likely for this year.

I'm just hoping that it is still in the works and shows up in 2014.

It is just about the only ting that GW's even hinted at doing in the last 5 years that's had me anticipating its release...
