If that's not a confirmation, it's trolling on a new level for GW.

Welll considering how I've been waiting for WE for years and then started a HE army recently the omens are good for Sod/Murphy's law raising its ugly head (Which also means WE will look and play fantastic!)
Man, I'm really hoping this happens. It's been too long without any updates. And their book is just so small--I'm really hoping for a few more named characters, if only for the fluff value.

Teaser up on the GW site, no one that I know of had managed to get the video working, but it's called "Something mysterious". Seems to fit with what was said about White Dwarf...also shocked we've not had pictures from the recent white dwarf of that line, or any leaked pics of models!

It's not great, but it's perfectly acceptable for a teaser that has a budget of approx £0, and presumably very strict limits on what they can actually show.

At the end of the day you have to realise that if you're on this forum, the teaser is not meant for you. There has barely ever been a teaser that came out before the rumours already knew about it, and usually had pics of it too, this is one of the few times we don't have pics first.
That said, I'm not sure who the teaser IS actually targeted at, as you won't know about the teaser unless you are actively perusing the internet for GW stuff in which case you probably already know the leaks.

I've always assumed the teasers were a higher-ups idea, which is why they're always half-assed. The marketing guys who are doing then already know how far behind the curve they are. However it's what the boss wants.
Do GW have an official social media presence anymore? I remember something about them closing their Facebook account do to price argument trolling.

It's more likely they are abusing some poor photographer do to the videos assuming that because its visual its just the same - fact is video is a whole different suit of skills and equipment to give really good results. for something creative like that.
And GW still have all their shops with a page on facebook . And some good painting tutorials on youtube/website.

Even though this strongly appears to be an update for the Wood Elves I'm happy to see them at least acknowledge that Bretonnia still exists. Gives me hope. Also, that mounted guy looks like a Yeoman and correct me if I'm wrong but did they ever have their own minis?

For a GW teaser that effort wasn't half bad, compared to the usual dross they put out this one actually had some figures in it at least!
Said figures are the reason I'm also thrilled... (gawd, I need to get a life hah!) I mean, Brettonians being showed off in an official capacity? That puts the rumours of them getting 'squatted' firlmy to bed, I'd say. Lack of models be damned!
Very much looking forward to this release and I'm keeping all fingers and toes crossed for some tidbits on a Breton release too.
