Except theres only one tyranid kit coming out, and all the rumor sources (including super reliable ones) point to the end of november. The campaign will likely start next week. Have you not been following this discussion at all?
I did follow the discussion. And it's wrong.
The leak/message from the German White Dwarf said there will be a "Shield of Baal: Leviathan" supplement with the rules for the new Nids in it. It's not on pre-order now, and they aren't likely to put rules for new models in a campaign box, because the "Stormclaw-style" boxes don't have new units in them (for the same reason, if you think the discounted box will have NEW Assault Marines or NEW Lictors, you're sorely mistaken... they re-package old units with two exclusive single-sprue minis).
If "Shield of Baal: Leviathan" goes up for pre-orders on the 8th and is released on the 15th, than that is at least two more weeks of Tyranids (Plastic Venomthrope/Zoantrope seems a popular bet, would go well with the Toxicrene/Malesomething theme).
At least another week for the box itself, if there's no "non- 40K" inbetween, and I doubt the Codex will be right the week after. Probably another two or three weeks into a Blood Angels release AFTER the campaign box. Again, not counting possible not- 40K filler.

You could be right if.the Blood Angels get a Grey knights style.release. Which is plausible as they have a nice range already and mainly need rules adjustments more than additions.

I am curious if maybe a forge world inspired model will come out for ba. It seems there has been a lot of that lately. Maybe a cool flier or drop pod. Some anti aircraft? A chaplain/reclusiarch dreadnaught? I know most of the rumors point to very little new models... Still...

There's already a Chaplain dread, a BA Contemptor and Rhino and LR doors, which fit the Storm Raven and various derivatives as well. I would be highly skeptical about any BA releases from FW until they hit that part of the HH.

I am hoping the BA get a release on par with what the SW got. A couple vehicles, and a few characters done in plastic. Probably Dante or Mephiston. No idea on the vehicles. They need a light flyer of some sort. Either give them access to the Stormtalon or give them something unique like what Dark Angels got. Except don't let them suck like the flyers Dark Angels got.

It is in IA2:2E. Basically, it is a Furioso Contemptor.

I think they meant a new plastic kit which takes cues from a FW design.
Ie. SW Stormfang.

All i know is that lords of war put the release of the new codex within 4-5 weeks, and that was a week ago. So 3 weeks from the firs is the 22nd, and 5 weeks is the 28th. GASP, what i said suddenly made more sense than more tyranid releases that no one has talked about!!

Eldarain, that is what I was trying to get at.
I also feel like there are other less blatant examples that could arguably be traced back to a forge world design. Although I haven't been following the armies that I don't play as closely, I would be willing to bet that pretty much every codex that has come out lately has had forge world inspired models.
That being said my logic comes down to a secret hope to be able to assault dreadnaughts and assault marines out of a drop pod that doesn't cost like $100

Seems like if the 22nd is 3 weeks from the 1st, then the 28th is only 4 weeks from the 1st, not 5. 5 weeks from the 1st would be the 6th (of December?) Also, the 28th is a friday and the 22nd is a saturday. Generally quite confusing stuff.

My bad, dates are off and i should have clarified when the 4-5 week mark was starting. That time table was spoiled a week before he new bug was released, so 4-5 weeks from the 25th, not the 1st. Also i meant the 29th, not 28th. Like i said, my bad for fudging up dates and not being more clear XD

Well, it looks like Blood Angles won't be in the first half of November since we have at least the next 2 weeks for Tyranid releases.

The preview for the week after next's WD says 'A New Campaign Begins', so I imagine we'll see the book and box at the same time, or the book then box like Sanctus Reach.

The same way the had the whole new Space Hulk hidden until a week before the release? As well as Stormclaw?
Frankly, even those things that were rumoured earlier in the past year, was mostly just rumour-mongers looking at the oldest books out there and predicting them until they are right. I think Natfka has been predicting Bretonnians for just about every month this year, unitl End Times hit this year. BoLS had Necrons for September and again for November and for " this Fall". I am sure they'll re-run their Necron rumours until a Necron Codex hits.... eventually
Hell, most of the stuff posted about Blood Angels is probably gak as well (guess what, nobody saw a campaign either, until a week or so ago), they just throw it out there because it is reasonable to assume Blood Angels are close (well, confirmed as of this week, maybe last week).

Sanctus Reach: Red Waaagh contained updated Planetstrike rules, SR: Hour of the Wolf added some Planetstrike missions. The last WD page (teasering issue 42) indicates that the new campaign book will feature updated Cities of Death rules (-> 'Urban warfare'). This was rumored twice on a german 40k forum by a good source some weeks ago and he could be correct again.

Isn't this basically the same way they dropped the Sanctus Reach releases? They released a few weeks for the Space Wolves and then the campaign followed by a few Ork releases following up with Codex Orks?

Yes! Exactly! How long do we have to wait!??! I am starting to feel like a Bretonnia player here.
Hey, I'm just happy that there are rumours that stuff is actually on the way in the foreseeable future. I've really struggled with anti-aircraft with BA (Besides Storm Raven, which I can never roll successfully for...), so I am hoping to see something come out for that niche--so I echo the hopes for a "light flyer" for us. I basically don't understand why BA don't have access to all Space Marine flyers, or the "new" units like Centurions and the two anti-aircraft tanks. So at least that change would be appreciated.
But something new like the new Space Wolf Flyer would also be awesome.

To be fair, Tyranids do need a lot of help. The drop pods they are getting are right up their alley. As for Blood Angels, they ALSO need a lot of help, so GW needs to get their act together.
I want BA to come out so I can get ANOTHER Space Marine army going. My C: SM and SW need some more friends! (Plus, I can ally them together).
