738-Yes the Org chart is back but in a new simplified form!
739-Three categories, 0-6

CANNON FODDER

(IE Imperial Guard squads, Eldar Guardians, Kasrkin, Tactical Marines, Leman Russ Tanks), 0-6

AWESOME SAUCE

(IE Terminators, Rogal Dorn Tanks, Greater Demons), 0-1

PURE VELVEETA CHEESE

(Baneblade, Imperial Knight, Primarch)
740-The new CINEMATIC AWESOMENESS ENGAGEMENT RULES mean that

AWESOME SAUCE

and

PURE VELVEETA CHEESE

units cannot engage each other until all the

CANNON FODDER

are dead. This ensures every army gets a chance to wade through dozens of weak mooks and feel cool before the real fighting starts.
741-New units will always be classed as

AWESOME SAUCE

if not

PURE VELVEETA CHEESE

for the first 6 months before being Nerfed and converted to

CANNON FODDER

With the release of the 11th Edition Chaos Codex comes the coveted Ladies of Chaos Wall Calendar.

Many souls are lost when they get to the month featuring the Daemonettes of Slanesh.

**Lathe Biosas**

11th Edition brings back Robin Cruddace to write the Tyranid codex.

**Tygre**

The starter box set is significantly cheaper in Australia and New Zealand than the rest of the world.

**Flinty**

11th edition brings in larger squads, and an innovative new square base format, allowing you to position your models closely together in unique "rank" format. Units attacking from the flank or rear get bonuses to combat resolution.

Larger ballistic weapons will no longer use ballistic skill to generate hits, but will move to an totally new and never before seen system by which a special "not hitting the point you thought" dice is rolled alongside "bigger weapon" dice to see how far away from the target point the shot lands. Sometimes shots might even bounce.

Due to constant game balance issues, the Balance Datasheets will be released every 4 weeks.

I head they are going to a full living rulebook. So it will be updated constantly.

But it’s going to be living like a cat lives. So wild zoomies at random intervals, and down and inaccessible napping for like 22 hours out of the day.

**Overread**

GW teams up with the US Defence Force in an international agreement to create the first true LivingRulebook.

Allowing GW to embrace new marketing "A Rulebook is for Life not just an Edition"

Rulebooks will come with a starter pack containing a regular guidebook on how to care for your new rulebook; 2 months of Rulebook Feed and a rule-a-scoop for scooping up little rule messes in public.

**Kid_Kyoto**

763-10th Edition army books will be fully compatible with 11th
764-In fact all prior codexes will be compatible!
765-You want 3.5 chaos marines with 5th edition demons and RT era mutants rolling on the d1000 table you got them!
766-the rules mean nothing! Just push the models around going pew-pew! Make explosion noises! Say "I killed you!" And "No I killed you first!" Capture that youthful spirit of toy soldiers!
767-all that being said the rule book still costs $100

**Charax**

768 - In response to criticism that new/more expensive/newer models seem to get better rules, GW have decided to lean into that. Unit rules are now directly tied to the cost of the models.

769 - Following the success of the Balance Updates, the decision has been made to roll these out to the rest of the business:

Expect the first wave of Black Library balance updates to come out in early 2027, expect a buff to Eldar

Nuln Oil is also expected to be nerfed

770 - Continuing the wave of brand synergy that resulted in renaming Games Workshop stores to Warhammer, and Citadel Paints to Warhammer Paints, all GW staff will be required to change their first names to "Warhammer <Previous first name>". The number of "Warhammer Daves" is predicted to be in the millions

**Kid_Kyoto**

771-The Leagues of Votan will be quietly dropped from the game.
772-After two or three years GW will half halfheartedly offer that they were eaten by Tyranids.
773-Existing novels with Votan characters will be edited to change them to, I dunno, tech priests or something. Possibly named Grill.
774-Fans will refer to the dropping of factions as being 'Votanned'.

**vict0988**

775-40k Universes Beyond new Spiderman Codex released after 3 months been predicted yet?

**Lathe Biosas**

The Exodite Codex is released, but instead of Eldar riding Dinosaurs, it's a Chapter of Primaris Space Marines riding Dinosaurs!

**Lathe Biosas**

The Crusade System takes your hero from Crucible and allows them to get better as you play games.

**CthuluIsSpy**

In collaboration with Dreamworks, the entire Ork range will be redesigned to look like Shrek.

**Lathe Biosas**

There will be one Ultramarine model released everytime someone complains online about their army needing a refresh.

That'll work out great for anyone wanting to run UltraMarines!

I don't see why you can't do this right now.

I didn't know if the rules were compatible.

791-Based on the box art, XIth edition will see the return of wargear cards.
792-And vehicle datafaxes
793-And strategy cards.
794-Including virus outbreak.
795-Especially virus outbreak.
796-In fact it will be word-for-word reprint of 2nd edition! Older fans will save a fortune.

**Lathe Biosas**

Only Monopose models will be GT legal.

Automatically Appended Next Post:
To improve on the new aspects of Narrative gameplay, there are now regional armies.

Depending on what country you live in you get bonuses or negatives on your army.

**Jidmah**

So, I guess we now can start figuring out who accidentally made up a real rumor

In typical GW quality control, there will actually be one word changed in the entire ruleset due to an unnoticed autocorrect when they copy and paste their scanned copy of Dave's 2nd ed rulebook into their text editor.

This small change will rules as written make huge swathes of the ruleset nonfunctional, and will only be picked up by a single user in a YMDC subforum who will promptly be banned for pointing it out and insisting on applying the rules as they are written.

**Lathe Biosas**

Even though your codex still works, GW is releasing updated codicies anyways, just to steal a little more money from you...

Ohhh, they have a QR code in the back of the book that links you to the FAQ!

**PenitentJake**

Rather than the "Unified Play Experience" previewed at Adepticon meaning Crusade is gone, it actually means that Crusade is now the only way to play, even in tournaments!

You laugh, but Age of Sigmar actually had this at one point.

**Kid_Kyoto**

804-Breaking! XIth to move to 54mm! You can still use your old models but they lost half their toughness and wounds.

**Lathe Biosas**

The models in the starter set are only two pieces, and one of them is the base.

**BorderCountess**

Despite painting the minis as Blood Angels, the Space Marine sprues are all Space Wolves Grey.

**Kid_Kyoto**

807-XIth will be the most balanced edition EVER! The only units allowed will be Blood Angel Space Marines and Grots! All other armies must count as one or the other!

808-Except Eldar of course. Their book will have a million units each with like a million special rules.
