Ah I was just thinking of the Frankenstein marine and whatever happened to him.

Oh I dunno, I can appreciate jokes that took a massive amount of time and effort, just for that dumbstruck split-section expression on a person's face. My fave story is about the guy who spent 2 weeks building a sea monster out of wire and plastic sheet, and plopped it into his neighbor's pool so it would greet him when he came home at night from a weekend vacation.

Now there is a worthwhile way to spend your time.

That's my point: this is not a Grey Knight anthology, and it's from a series of books that hasn't singled out one story like that in the past. If this had merely been a coincedence, they would have done the same thing they'd done with the previous books and not "coincidentally" singled out an army that "coincidentally" happened to be the same one getting a new codex that month.

If you take BL releases for predicting GW releases, you are obviously 98% wrong.
Has been a common source for false rumours.
BTW the Grey Knight story is the only thing new in that Space Marine anthology, that's why.

It seems the last few useful leaks have come from translators who have early copies.

Now we need some non-English speaker to make up a whole Necron codex, write it up in Spanish or German or something and post it as a leak.

Then watch everyone fall over themselves trying to translate it.

That's about as bad as that Blood Angels "leak" that was just an elaborate prank. I remember my buddy using the leaked Spanish Imperial Guard codex. I thought it was great since he was using printed out photos that a guy took of a codex in his lap, relying on highschool-level Spanish to translate it.

Oh the lengths we'll go.

They get thunderstomp or whatever the one additional hit.

Nope. They do not.

Also: "2010 will be the summer of Fantasy!"
DE Hydras were supposed to fluctuate in number of attacks and S of breath weapon for each Regen save passed or failed, representing the number of heads sprouting anew.
I also remember the rumors for SM Drop pod models that took 3 years or so to officially materialize.
