Apologies if posted elsewhere before.

But, new formations / book incoming?

http://www.games-workshop.com/en-NL/Backbone-of-the-Imperium

The Astra Militarum - innumerable, heroic Guardsmen. Far from equal to the Space Marines, the Imperium would nonetheless be in a great deal of trouble indeed without them! Their strength lies in numbers and their indomitable spirit, not genetic enhancement and insane weaponry.

This bundle gives you an awesome set of models, enough to build up an Astra Militarum collection that will impress all who see it! You’ll receive a Chimera, two Leman Russ', twenty Cadians, one Demolisher, one Hydra, one Deathstrike, one Vengeance Weapons Battery, two Cadian Heavy Weapon Squads and an Officio Prefectus Commissar. Some serious hardware!

Note - some of these items are part of the Cadian Defence Force, and are boxed separately.

Abhumans that present the foe with an impressive challenge, Bullgryns are literally clad in tank armour, and have the temperament to match. The only way they could be more brutal would be with a tank accompaniment - so that’s exactly what you get here! Nine Bullgryns, one of whom can be built as Nork Deddog, and a Stormlord close support unit.

No rules in the box, though.
It does look like a new book is on the way.
Especially since Nork is a CCS upgrade in the current book, but an HQ choice, and not an Ogryn upgrade either.

Ah, I don't frequent that part of the forums, apologies.

I regret going there quite often.

To be fair it says:

I hope that it's something relating to a new Guard book(my wallet disagrees with me on this point, but he can go to hell!), but I'm thinking it might just be a random collection of stuff.

I don't picture Nork looking so ornate... The art for him wearing armour was him covered in tank tracks or something similarly home made. =/

Oh man... There's a €1 savings on the Nork Deddog package! Holy crap!

It must be a rounding off error. Clearly the saving the clicks is what gamers want, not more money in their pocket.

"Huge" Guard army. Twenty vanilla Cadians.

Something is rotten in the state of 40k.
