The next Primarchs are Corax (90% finished, just needs his new jump pack since they re-did it, i expect him between new year and february), Alpharius/Dorn by Israel (if i remember it correctly it's Israel who will do them) and Russ with his wolfs ...

Sanguinius will come with Signus ...

Your "insiders" are trolls, nothing more ...

Can't wait to see Corax.

Azreal Most of the kits listed above are already prepared for release. Besides, I see no evidence on the contrary that the products listed above are BS, as according to you.

Yes, and several of the kits have already been hinted at/full on spoiled for some time by people with stellar reputations.

You won't see evidence that something doesn't exist, as that's a logical impossibility, they'll simply never materialise, or something enough like them might come out at some time and you'll point at them as what you intended.

You've made, AFAIK, three great proclamations based on so-called inside info, that the Emperor of Man would appear in End Times (he didn't) that the Old World would persist in Fantasy (that was "confirmed" too) and it blew up, and these rumours. What's changed? Why are these suddenly any more plausible than the other nonsense you've peddled?

The last "rumour monger" with the same degree of, let's say guesswork, in their info also claimed some inside connection to GW, and they proved to be just as reliable as your info has thus far.

If I recall correctly, wasn't it rumored that the employee who leaked the Horus Heresy boxset photos was fired? If GW was good enough to catch someone taking these photos, I find it hard to believe they wouldn't be catching these "GW insiders," what with all the specifics they give about future products.

Wasn't a rumour, I got it straight from the horses mouth, not the person fired, but the person who fired them.

**Atia**

Sanguinus is a good example. Model ready and confirmed.

first, he is called Sanguinius, and second, no, his model isn't finished, not even started lol oO

**Azreal13**

Thanks Atia, nothing nails the door shut on false rumours like someone who knows what they're talking about confirming they're horse gak.

**Joyboozer**

Well to be fair, by confirmed he could have meant confirmed as being false.

**dienekes96**

Nonsense.

Wishlisting from a real fan would know that it was called 'Oi! Dat's my leg!' - Still a Deluxe edition would be fun though. :-)
Maybe if they did that, they could add 'Trolls in the Pantry' and 'Hungry Troll and the Gobbo's' to their Specialist Games list that's being revamped.

LOC is confirmed Fayric. Dwarves are confirmed. Only question is if GW will follow through their original plan of release. 9th ed was replaced by AoS as GW concluded that 9 ed will no longer appeal to the fans.

Hmmm.... Since GW likes going the Apple route and seeing that it's not making as much profit as they hoped, maybe they are going the Microsoft route, there is no Windows 10 and straight to Windows 10, so maybe there is no Fantasy 9 but will be a Fantasy 10.

Serious now, you would think that 9th edition would not appeal to fans would be because of high price, lack of support, and shoddy rules writing?

**Rygnan**

Interesting to note that OP was actively replying to people until they got shut down by Atia, and now nothing

**RedFox**

close this thread, show's over

**Joyboozer**

No way, somewhere some angry little red haired kid just found out his friend who is in the know fed him a loaf crap.
New releases for the armies of the Blood god, confirmed!

It's certainly more than Dark Eldar got, hehehe.

Well, Dark Eldar did get the Covens Codex & plastic Wracks.

You have got to be joking. 3 of those armies had previously gone ~10 years without updates. CSM get a Codex every edition.

Chaos was skipped over entirely in 5th edition, and thus far, has been ignored entirely in 7th-7.5 edition.

Our initial 3rd edition codex was so abysmally bad that GW had to give us the 3.5 edition one.

We've had the least flavour of anyone, and been the most outright bland codex ever since 4th edition.

Couple routinely awful rules alongside the oldest & most incomplete model line, with only Sisters of Battle being in a worse state. I'd say Chaos players have been pooped on pretty routinely by GW.
We have 1 single plastic kit that can actually build all of it's options 'out of the box'. Every other non-vehicle kit we have is missing half or more of our units' basic upgrade options, or else is a god awful Finecrap hybrid.
At least we got to share our pain alongside Dark Angel players! But now they've got new shiny and we're still left trying to play 3rd edition tactics with 5th edition pts costing.

Heck, we're the only army in the entire game that doesn't even have our own army-wide special rule! (unless you count, "overcosted and underpowered" as our army wide rule. )

Well I'm gonna play dark eldar and I hear nothing but bad news for them. Look at how few army lists pop up in the 40k section with dark eldar only or even dark eldar with covens support (we won't count as eldar allies or even maybe harlequin allies). When you think about it for dark eldar the covens book was GW's way of saying "We made Dark Eldar suck except for this extra book with all the good stuff and you have to buy it separately." Yeah GW are jerks and suck hard.

I realize chaos have it bad but you need to ease up before you unleash khorne's rage. Perhaps play a different army? Maybe one that GW hasn't made suck so hard. I know the army doesn't deserve it and GW doesn't deserve support but perhaps playing an army that can actually win would help you be less angry.

Had to Google it. Was not disappointed.

By the way, whoever decided to get my hopes up on the Sanguinius miniature is going to die a terrible death.

**Brometheus**

If Atia comes in and says get rekt, I'd say show is indeed over and you probly got trolled by sources..

179 page CSM book? Does that page count have anything to do with the recent flood of CSM Codex info? Do any other 40k books have 179 pages with which to base a new codex off of when making up stuff?

gak, Sad Panda mentioned Khorne Daemonkin a long while before it was out and boom. If he says Tzeentch stuff was trolling and Atia hasn't started hearing whispers, then I just dunno man

**Crazyterran**

Are we making stuff up?

I heard the next campaign will be an Imperial Guard/Chaos Marine book, introducing a new super formation for Chaos and adding new 'Kasrkin' themed Stormtrooper formations for Cadians (in addition to others).

There will be 1-3 new plastic kits for Chaos, or at least an upgrade kit to make spikey marines from loyalist kits!

The super formation bonus will be to get marks of chaos for free. And nothing else.

I thought they needed a shout out. All the GW reps lurking at Dakka need to know we are still expecting them...

**Moopy**

I don't believe that BA will only get ROW in the new book. AFAIK, every army has gotten new units to go with it when premiered in a book. Those models might not come out for a while, but the units exist.

IIRC the explanation is that BA aren't going to be featured in the fluff part of the book and their rules, like a few other legions, are just a "here's something to use while you wait for your real book" fix. This was something mentioned at one of their recent events, and late enough that the next book's contents were probably set by that point.

**Sersi**

Those Chaos rumors are absurd. They somehow know the codex page count, but no other details? I rolled my eyes at the mention of Nurgle "centurions". We already have obliterators and mutilators. Beside which is GW won't give us god specific terminators; we'll the lucky to get the current cults in plastic rather than some other absurd daemon-engine thing. On the Slaanesh removal thing just let that go. Three years with out new Slaanesh models, so what. Did everyone forget how long of a wait it was for the current plastic daemons.

Yeah, as Peregrine said, this isn't their book, they're just getting Rites of War and general rules so people have something to use for them. This is stuff that's been confirmed at Forge World events so it's not even really a rumour.

That Sanguinius description though..

I spoke to Simon Egan at the 40k open day about Sanguinius. He told me that he wants to do Sanguinius but they haven't even had a discussion about him yet, let alone start designing him.

Although when I asked him how he'd personally want him to look, he told me that he wants him plunging down to earth to impale something with the spear of telesto.

2016 is very doubtful.

I did speak to Andy Hoare about the Blood Angels RoW and they'll be getting two. Day of Revelations and Day of Sorrows

Day of Sorrows - Very Defensive style RoW, like they're protecting a relic

Day of Revelations - Andy told me that this one would be similar to the beginning of Fear to Tread, very offensive, lots of Assault marines, Lots of deep striking Blood Angels

I actually wish the Fishmen-thing was true!

@OP "Slaanesh minimized"

If you're trying to convince me that this rumor is true.... then you just succeeded

That would be awesome, but we all know it's going to end up being Sanguinius standing there either pointing or staring at something.

I have wish the fishmen happened (back when they were rumored to be cthulu in nature and hinted at in 8th's rulebook). That is a totally legit what they'd do to them in 'age of sigmar' though. It'd be more like 'age of salmon-mar'.

Hey, you are getting a whole Advent Calendar dedicated to you right now! Trust me, it could be worse. I know.

Maybe one that is not made by GW? Because maybe if you encourage them to being jerks by buying even more models as a reward, they will continue?

****CONFIRMED****

At some point in the next 12 months, some Space Marine miniatures will be released.
