-GW have moved away from the idea of a group launch and will be relasing the digital edition of the book of tzeench in the second half of 2014
( The rubric terminator rumour is likely a result of this next point)
-any CSM unit with both MoT and a bolt weapon may take inferno bolts for an extra cost
I also wanted to add, I have heard people claiming this rumour was made up to mess with people... while I cant reveal my source or give any proof I can say that it is a genuine rumour. We will just have to wait it out and see
SECOND UPDATE!
spoke to my friend this morning. He has informed me that the Book of Tzeentch is currently scheduled for digital release April but will likely be set back into may. He has been part of the playtest group for all 4 "Books of chaos" but due to the modifeid release schedule he has had to shifthis focus to the nook of tTzeentch for now. More details on the other gods should come through soon

Never been a fan of khorne, but about f'in time for those ancient berserkers to get an update. Think they're the oldest 3rd edition plastic kit still around?
A rumour from 4Chan, about a digital release and an accompanying model wave, including the much desired re sculpt of Bezerkers?
Yeah, right.

I'd love to believe, really I would, but sadly when it comes to GW, it seems to be becoming a truism that if it is what the fans are crying out for, it isn't going to happen, or it will happen in a manner which is recognisable as that thing, but not quite what everyone wanted.

The digital Supplements will eventually be printed. Also, they aren't a "dex." They are Supplements.
Once all the codices are up-to-date, GW can free up some printer space for the Supplements. They didn't have to give us these products; you know that, right?
They aren't so game-breaking that not knowing exactly what's in them will screw you over in a tournament. Also, if a player is using them, they are required to have the digital copy with them (which means you can look at it - unless it takes you a long time to read 2 pages).
ON TOPIC: Khorne would be exciting. I'd like to see how GW makes a CC-oriented army with the gear and toughness of MEQ without breaking them.
I don't believe this. Huge grains of salt. Oh how I wish this were true though. FNP zerkers, drop pods, new zerker models, it might make khorne worth playing again!
It would be 100 pages and all it would do was "You can take zerkers as troops." There won't be any assault vehicles or anything to make a zerker army really viable. I'm unimpressed.
Also, check out my history blog: Minimum Wage Historian, a fun place to check out history that often falls between the couch cushions.
Even if true. Supplements have not been getting kits released with them at the same time...or at all. Plus add in the fact it is to broad a subject considering the current run of supplement books. Perhaps CSM: World Eaters would be more appropriate.
Deathshroud terminators already exist, I own some from FW.
The only reason I wish this was true would be to get the hopes up for there being new Thousand Sons models and a viable way to play them... come on GW, make at least one dream come true.

I'm also curious as to why people aren't commenting this in the other thread which has a picture which isn't shown anywhere else.

To me the Chaos Space Marines needed to be characterised as a threat reaching back to the Imperium's past, a threat which had refused to lie down and become part of history. This is in part why the gods of Chaos are less pivotal in Codex Chaos; we felt that the motivations of Chaos Space Marines should remain their own, no matter how debased and vile. Though the corrupted Space Marines of the Traitor Legions make excellent champions for the gods of Chaos, they are not pawns and have their own agendas of vengeance, empire-building vindication or arcane study which gives them purpose.
"...a combined force of daemon and marine all working in the will of their chosen patron, this will be done by allowing players to take units from BOTH Codex: Chaos Space Marines AND Codex: Chaos Daemons."
might just be true since GW recently released a bundled C:CSM, daemons and BL..
I'm both orderly and rational. I value control, information, and order. I love structure and hierarchy, and will actively use whatever power or knowledge I have to maintain it. At best, I am lawful and insightful; at worst, I am bureaucratic and tyrannical.

Well, we haven't yet at least. That doesn't mean it's not possible in the future.
I could see them selling some kits with the new supplements, especially if it's replacing really old kits. For instance, I could see some new Aspect Warrior kits if they released a Biel-Tan supplement.
Not gonna lie, just sounds like wishlisting to me, much like the Tyranid Codex thread *WARNING, I WAS NOT TROLLING*, it's all wishful thinking and, in my opinion, there's nothing far wrong with the Khorne Berserker kit at the moment. They're still quality models, and they're better than most of the Aspect Warrior kits, so surely if they were to release such a kit they'd have to respec Aspect Warriors as well.

This.
'It's a drop pod that is better than the Space Marine drop pod because it can scatter onto units and hurt them and also Khorne Berserkers get to assault out of it'
Want.
Not gonna happen.
