Erm, yes. The October WD was released a week ago, three weeks ago in the Netherlands.

Sorry, the explanation is very simple this time - I screwed up translation - was quite tired typing that :]
The WD where Necrons will make their comeback is referred to as "upcoming" on that polish site. I accidently took that as "October's WD" - my bad.
That leak was posted 2 days ago (12 Oct 2011) and there is no way it was referring to that horrible Derp Fleet related issue of WD.

I believe the polish site was referring to the WD released in October. Since magazines are released with the expiration date printed on the cover this would be the November issue released in October.

Thanks for pointing this out

That uh, actually sounds like a quite reasonable inference to me.

Pretty stoked about this release anyway, though. I love the thought of Ustabi with glaives. Necron snipers? Crazy. Crazy... awesome.

I'm pretty sure the copies of White Dwarf we get in the UK are now printed in Poland (cost saving), so it's not unlikely a Polish website would get an earlier tip off or pics....

I dunno about you, but my experiences with finecast (Crowe, Lelith) have been good.

You made me think. I checked my last issue of WD (which I buy in a press store shelved as "foreign hobby press" ) and it's indeed printed in Poland O_o !
Here's a proof:



I think You are right, and it's possible that the said "reliable source" is someone at the printing company... Nice.

Can't wait, always wanted a necron army just the fluff is a bit crumy , the elite sniper sounds cool but I think the rumour mini c'tan are going to be first choice probs most list over 1500 anyways.

Ohh, keep an eye out in Poland for pics. Hope it's real soon.

Not a cron player as yet but always open to new armies/forces!

I'm just glad to read a thread with actual unit rumors in rather than a well known preservative/seasoner being sprinkled everywhere!

Thanks OP!

pics or it didn't happen

GW hasn't done anything yet. You're complaining about speculation.

Speculation? GW has raised prices more in the past 3 years, consistently, than ever before. That is NOT speculation. Every time a model kit is changed the price increases per model. Termagants went from 1.88 apiece to 2.06 (usd) when they were re-boxed for the tyranid codex. Characters going from pewter to resin (a cheaper material to produce and manufacture models with) had a general price increase of 10-20 percent.

I love the hobby, the game is fun, but GW's pricing policy is shoehorning the company even futher into a niche market, thus making it harder for new players to get into the hobby (barring those with large amounts of disposable income).

Call the 'speculation' over what might happen to warrior kits if you like, but i suggest anybody who needs any more warriors to beef up their force (considering the points per model will probably decrease, we will be needing larger squads) to buy any boxes at the FLGS now before the restock. After the restock we will all just deal with the consequences and no amount of whining will change it. However I just wanted to get the point across that they're raking us as gamers over the coals to please their shareholders. It stings a little.

it would be nice for necrons to have more variety overall, they need more than one vehicle.
