Hey All,

I heard a rumor that the WHFB Ard Boyz for this year 2010, might be using the 7th Ed. rules instead of the new 8th Ed - heard from a friend of a friend kind of thing. I can't believe this would be true since it would entice people NOT to buy the new rule book. GW is all about sales, why would they do this? Anyone heard anything either way on this matter?

Not a rumor. Says so on the 'ard Boyz site.

Hmm...Actually they ARE using the 2010 8th Ed rules. I guess I just needed to look.

Here it says the following:

Fantasy* 'Ard Boyz Preliminaries 2010 Aug. 28, 2010 3,000 Independent Retailers
Fantasy* 'Ard Boyz Semifinals 2010 Sep. 25, 2010 3,000 Independent Retailers
Fantasy* 'Ard Boyz Finals 2010 Oct. 23, 2010 3,000 Chicago Battle Bunker

* The 2010 Fantasy 'Ard Boyz will use the new edition of the Warhammer rules.

'Ardboyz this year is absolutely 100% using 8th edtion rules. This is based on discussions and emails with the head of tradesales, not redshirts, buddies, or rumors.

The PDF on the website is old. It does say 7th edition. It also says '2009'.

I've been pushing Trade Sales a bit to get some info up, since the event date is so close. I'll pass on anything that I hear.

Currently, the sum of my knowledge is: 8th edition, 3k pts.

....and lo!.....The Age of Sigmar came to an end when Saint Veetock and his hamster legions smote the false Sigmar and destroyed the bubbleverse and lead the true believers back to the Old World.
