Sister Battle bolters.
Dominator doom guns.
And don't forget the ever popular- Flying Fickle Sister of Fate (tm). [For those of you who are too young or not from the US. This is a reference to an award given out on the show Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In circa 1970. Where people like Goldie Hawn got her start in TV.]

Goldie Hawn mentioned in a SOB thread?

And here I thought it was a reference to the Flying Nun from 1967 starring Sally Field.

Sounds cool. I'll believe it when I see it though.
Necrons and Tau have already been more or less confirmed, and certain information hints to CSM and Templrs getting updates sometime after that. SoB haven't fit into this equation until now...

Wade Price: I totally did! I told some kids that we'd be putting out Sisters around the end of the year. I bet he's talking about it right now with his internet buddies and they all go like "Is this true? Is this a lie? Who is this Wade guy?"

Would love for it to be true, but... due to previous rumors of 'soon to come- sister codex releases'... I have to remain skeptical... thank you for the info though

Wade Pryce is, according to White Dwarf, the guy who controls the rumours, so if anyone would know, it'd be this guy.
Source: a WD that's not on me ATM, but it's about the Chaos Mighty Empires campaign. Pryce plays a strong Khorne army, and it describes him as the design team ninja or something. Will quote it when I get home from school.

Well at least we waited until the second page before the unreasoning Ward hate crept into a perfectly reasonable conversation. :(
What better place to talk about a heretic like Ward then a SOB thread?
By SOB did you mean Sisters, or......
But yeah, I agree. Kelly should get it. Cruddance better not. I enjoy his codexes, except for EVERYTHING BIG TO SQUADRONS!

Wow, really? Sheesh, they're cutting loose the good ones, aren't they.
Will this release have any Inquisition at all?

If this really is being released this year then there's no debate about who should get it because that decision is already in the past. Remember, book and accompanying models have to concur and the lead time on all that production is far ahead of scheduled release.
Confessor Kyrinov is the Battle Pope
You mean "battle poop". No one wants that model based on how it does on eBay. I saw a brand new unpainted one go for less than $10 on eBay last week.

Although I can't ever object to older books like the Grey Knights (DH) or Sisters (WH) being updated I think that the recent releases have been a bit too Imperium heavy (5th ed so far has 5 imperium codices and 2 xenos codices). We need a streak of xenos books (Necrons, then Tau, then Eldar and Chaos) to bring the rest of the stuff up to par, but it seems like some of that won't make it in before sixth edition.

If rumors are true though, crons/tau may have this year. If sobs also got here then no pre 4th edition codex would be left and that seems a bit surreal for gw

Really? So there’s a person I can blame now as opposed to just blaming the nebulous entity that is GW? Imagine that – this guy’s job is to ensure that their customer base knows as little as possible about their upcoming releases. They actually pay someone to ensure that the people who are going to buy their products are kept in the dark about future releases.
I’m... at a loss for a word to describe this... ‘extraordinary’ isn’t enough... astonishing... mind boggling... ah! Wait! Got it:
Stupid.

Really? A preorder pitch for Duke Nukem Forever?!?! Dude's got a pair that would make the Taurox envious!
Oh wait... There's a rumor about a new Adepta Sororitas codex coming? Cool... Although to be honest, I'd (purely selfishly!) actually prefer just a .pdf update or, at most, a new 'Dex without a ton of new models. I think I'm done painting white armor for my OotSR and I'd hate to have GW add a ton of new goodies that would make the old stuff OBE.
