Dakka does have White Knights and is also rather infamous for it's Black Knights. A new edition brings out the passionate and not all of them are good at expressing themselves in written form. There have been plenty of hysterical responses from both sides so far. So we descend into pointless bickering with neither side listening to each other. So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.

Well, its NOT a new army, given that they have about 6 months left to release 11 codcies in order to keep up with the "every established faction has a codex in a year" promise, and a new faction will take at least a month if not two-they cannot afford it.

So, probably a big release wave for an existing faction.
The next 2 are tau and necrons. this does not fit tau much, but does fit necron quite a bit.

I'd say we got a big necron release coming, with a a codex-only tau release coming up.

can neither confirm nor deny I lost track of what I've got right now.

Yea, they're not going to release a new army codex before they have released the existing factions codexes. The nerd rage would be severe (from those without codexes already).

Death Guard were being teased for close to a year before they came out, so there's no reason they couldn't put every 'dex out by then.

Deathguard got announced at adepticon. With the LVO and Adepticon so close on the horizon this is at MOST a triumverate type box but is much more likely just the next 2-3 codexes

It would be great for an early necron preview, but they still have to get orlocks, demons and age of sigmar stuff to get done with.

I'm going to stick with my Watchers in the Dark guess, but that would be funny. I have a friend who nearly gets a heart attack when he see my two Jokaero. I can only imagine what a whole army would do.

Spoiler:

Shouldn't really take up much time there. Half of the next Age of Sigmar release is covered by Nurgle daemons, the other half is a handful of Nurgle mortals. They can easily get through that in two weeks if they want to, have a couple of weeks of Necrons and then in February dedicate a week to the release of Orlocks, which is just a single box and a book, and two boxes for Shadespire.

Of course that relies on my getting new Necron models, which I'm totally paranoid about until I actually see them, but you know. They actually are the one army among my favorites that has been treated kindly by GW with a near complete plastic range and all. So who knows, maybe it's possible.
