Well...looks like that's confirmed-ish?

Next WD is going to be about Orks.

Waaagh!!!

'Tings are happenin' Boss!

I am so pumped for some new Orkz!

Why are all these pics taken so crappy? It's like we're a UFO forum.

Hahaha... I just wanted to say exactly the same thing


Nonetheless - I am really excited now. As a more collector than player - I think about an army. Totally legal 1500... maybe 2000 points for starters...

...and dreaming about Grot only supplement

Cheers!

Exalted (after watching 3 episodes of X-Files yesterday ) !!!

Nice, so Orks confirmed for next month then. It's the only thing that GW has gotten me exited for the last year or so. If they release some fantastic miniatures, I might actually buy something.

I think I just waaaghed myself.

If next week's white dwarf has got ork stuff in it, then that implies they are either releasing info several weeks in advance or the ork release is right after the new edition of 40k.

Either way, that's unexpected. I wasn't expecting to see anything from GW until mid-June.

There's no way that it could be WFB Orcs and Goblins, could it?

Well, I assume that modelling and rules-writing departments at GW are separated staff-wise. So releasing a new book does not diminish the potential of the mouldmakers to release new kits in short succession...

*cough* Plastic Flashgits *cough* Looted Wagon *cough* Plastic Meganobs *cough* Plastic Warboss *cough* and more. They'll be shown next week. *cough*

I have to ask: What did you expect them to do in between 7th edition and the following codex? Not release anything? Just have weeks with nothing happening?

This is the best thing I've read in a long time! Good show!

Something for Fantasy? Don't they usually have several weeks gap between 40k release waves?

It just occurred to me that they could be previewing the new ork psychic powers in advance of the codex. That would be consistent with the text and make sense rules-wise, since the old ork psychic powers are rather incompatible with the new rules.

I've got the red boots. And their glyph is a red bullseye.

I can't make out the "Available on" date - is that this upcoming Saturday's issue? (Not the 24th of May, but the Saturday after that?

yes, issue 18

All i can say is they'd better fething IMPRESS me.

I've been waiting too long, and 7th hasn't really grabbed my interest from what i've read so far. I'm going to a release day thing my FLGS is putting on tomorrow, so maybe that'll change my mind.

I was in the same boat with my DE. The re-do of the range impressed the gak out of me, when i was considering quitting the game. If the Ork release does the same i may be back in for an edition or two...

do tell!!! don't hold secrets like a weak elf!!

God Squid, you're killing me. Orks are one of my two 40k armies, and while I'm not jazzed up about 7th, I *am* actually very jazzed up about Orks.

Spill the beans man!

In the name of all brutal an cunnin', I hope they do flash gitz. I started with an ork army because I liked their fluff and realized afterwards that they have no usable models.

Imagine devastator marines, but orks. Crazy guns, with other guns bolted on. Pirate hats, mohicans, cigars, waaagh banners with plenty of shiny bits.
I can't really say much more, shouldn't even have said this. The anonymous source Kroot posted a while back was me.
Seen stuff, and as an Ork player I am massively hyped for it all.
No idea what waves it comes in, or if some is for the alleged/debunked starter or what, but all the models I saw are beautiful.

Thanks Squid!

I appreciate the information, it provides an interesting image to say the least.

And mums-the-word, I hope I didn't put you in hot water or anything.

If anyone did I did, not like you put a gun to my head.

Edit: A snazzgun to my head!

Now that sounds much more like what Flash gitz should be.

What, you didn't like that blunderbus that was too ugly to give it to a grot? How could you...
