Dammit, now I have all these incredibly high expectations that will more than likely never be fulfilled... :(

A Gehenna Campaign box after the Necron Codex drops would be awesome.

I don't expect Necrons to be a part of a campaign set... just like Grey Knights haven't been in a campaign set. I do have high hopes for a set based on Sanctuary 101... because I'd buy the crap out of that set.

So "Shield of Baal: Leviathan" apparently has no Blood Angels in it. So you were saying?

Once again, GW defies logic, reason, and common sense. Oh, and there don't appear to be any necrons in it either.

There will be a second campaign book.

You know what would be awesome about a sanctury 101 box set?
Plastic sisters.

Then I can start a new army and reinforce my existing one

WARNING: TOTAL WISHLISTING... THE MOST APPROPRIATE RESPONSE IS TO NOD YOU HEAD AND PRETEND THIS POST DIDN'T HAPPEN

I would rather have Sanctuary 101, but let's compare:

Gehenna for Necrons
Established Fluff places the Silent King as head of the army...
Praetorian formation that makes them worth taking (Outside of Apoc... and I'm not even sure if the Apoc formation is worth taking)
Space Time manipulation from the necrons in the fluff... how would that work on the table top?

Sanctuary 101
I'm taking most of this from the book Hammer and Anvil...
BA Overlord and a scheming Cryptek... great limited edition models
Overlord riding a Monolith. (suck on that Logan Grimnar)
Flayed One formation
Loose and retake story line... something GW seems to love

Oh, and plastic sisters

CONTINUING THIS WHOLE WISHLISTING THING THAT NEVER HAPPENED.

Let me add some speculation:
• LoWG source says 40k codex release goes BA, Necrons, then "codex no one is expecting"
• leak says Baal: Leviathan (assumed to be part one of multi part campaign, like Storm Claw) will involve 'Nid, Guard, a bit of Sisters, and eventually BA.
• ... could this mystery codex no one is expecting be none other than the Sisters?
• if they're making their comeback, would it not be feasible that the next campaign after Baal: Leviathan could be Necrons and Sisters?

REMINDER: THE ABOVE WISHLIST/SPECULATION DID NOT HAPPEN. CONTINUE NODDING AND GOING ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS.

Considering Adepta Señoritas are about the only army GW is still slinging in Failcast, and that GW hasn't squatted them, it's not hard to imagine them finally getting around to giving them an in print codex and a new plastic line.

When you're wrong, you're super wrong... Tell me... How many Finecast Sisters of Battle does GW produce exactly?

Sanctus Reach's first book had no Space Wolves in it.

It was Guard and Knights v. Orks.
The campaign box was then Space Wolves v. Orks and Book II was Wolves and Grey Knights v. Orks

A monolith being pulled by smaller monoliths, in true GW fashion

So shoot me, I didn't think GW made anything in metal these days.

Considering Adepta Sororitas are about the only army GW is still slinging in metal, and that GW hasn't squatted them, it's not hard to imagine them finally getting around to giving them an in print codex and a new plastic line.

Brets are still metal and, if I'm not mistaken, so are a good chunk of AM.

Making a habit of this, aren't you?

Don't feel bad, adamsouza... Pretre is grumpy in the morning. And in the afternoon... and just about every time.

Both 40k and Fantasy are at interesting times... It looks like the Fantasy range is going to undergo major changes... including changes to the Bretonnians. There appears to be progress on the Chapterhouse Lawsuit, and long rumored Nid models have seen the light of day. They have moved their COO unto the CEO position... maybe that have the idea that a plastic Sisters release would be as big as an updated DE, Necron, or Tau release.

Wood Elves still have a large number of character models and a single unit in the form of Waywatchers in all metal still...

Let's talk with the hole we eat with, not with the one we sit on please.

Not grumpy. I just don't like incorrect statements.

Aha, missed some.

I'm sorry, was I incorrect?

Your attitude was and usually is, yes.

Are we seriously about to have an internet fight on the Necron Rumors thread?
(I'd expect this kind of behavior on YMDC, but News and Rumors?)

Possible alternatives:
• develop thicker internet skin
• don't be such a meanie, you big meanie
• take it private

I would probably suggest a mod locks this thread as there are no rumours on here, only wish listing and pointless conversation.

Re-open the thread when real leaks/ rumours come out.

That's what the little yellow triangle is for.

No news or info.
