They're basing that on this GW blog item about the Codex: Inquisition:
http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/wnt/blog.jsp?pid=11700068-gws

There's a selection of 'Inquisitorial Models', and the Assassins are not among them. But yeah, the Land Raider isn't listed there either, and we know that one is in for sure, so take from that what you will.

I'm betting that those models/units (outside of the actual Inquisitors) are just Inquisitorial Henchmen options again (like they are now). Well I'll know more tonight and can actually follow up on it properly when I do my review.

Their landraider has firepoints? Broken... OP! CHEESE!!!

Oh hush up. This has already been covered, when you tap the rule it brings up "0" as the number of fire points.

It's not tonight but tomorrow night. GW releases it about 10pm in the BL in the UK, and I think iTunes is sometime between that and 10pm EST.

I'm curious, what's BL?

Black Library, Games Workshop's fiction arm.

Afair, gwde stated that there will be no assassins i =][= codex, but that they might be covered in subsequent publications (speculations: 6e codex gk or - more probably - codex assassins)

Lol, that would make sense. For some reason I didn't think of that in that context.

You know we know Death Cult Assassins are in this or do they not count anymore?

Ribbing aside, I can't find any post that says the Assassins themselves won't be in this. We'll know in a few hours though so no point stressing it.

Damn it, getting to use the Vindicare with my IG was going to be one of the selling points on this codex for me. If I can't have him, I probably wont buy this.

This digital dex hitting at 7pm eastern time like the SM one?

I don't think we know a release time as of now, but I could be wrong.

About five hours and 20 minutes from now, give or take 15 minutes?

Officially, yes. But the AS codex dropped hours before it was supposed to. So keep on those f5 keys, people.

The reason I pre-ordered both is that I want the bean counters at GW to take notice of 2 of the 40k factions I love (AS & =I=). GW is a business and if these pre-order make them want to invest in these product ranges then I'll be happy. I essentially voting with my wallet for the type of products I want to see from GW.

Same for me. A few hours now.

Not really, I'm not keen on having allies that aren't BB. I don't want my 1 troop choice from the ally contingent denying my own objectives.

Allies of Convenience don't deny your own objectives. They can be scoring.

Well we're either about an hour out from the epub version or three hours out now. The iPad one (which I keep buying for some reason) tends to be a little later from what I can tell.

Yeah I'm excited.

Also I noticed that on the BL page it says that GW DE has a new release every week. Guess they're counting the Munititorium books in that.

So do we know what time (PST) the codex will drop?

I'm guessing 3 hours behind EST?

Well it's 22.23ish gmt and it's usually released at midnight. So not long to go!

pst is GMT-8 so if it drops at midninght in england it's 4 pm on the left coast.

Oh sweet hopefully some one will do some reviews before 5pm on the Best coast.

Just curious about the whole assassins thing.

As soon as I can download it I'm going to start working on the review. The thing is that I'm stuck with whenever iTunes releases it so it might be later than that.

Math was never my strong suit.

Refreshing this thread is easier....

Friday night and what am I doing? Sitting around my house and hitting refresh so I can get an instruction manual on how to play with my shiny models.

Sometimes I question what GW has done to my humanity.

With that being said.... still nothing.

It's up!
