Well it looks like The Empire are getting their update next month as is fortold here:

What's New Today | Games Workshop

now im not an Empire man myself so dont really know much about any of the new stuff but now we can see its practically confirmed!

[Duncan]

Darn, I was planning on starting a Beastmen army in April, but now I might just have to revitalize my Empire project which has been stalled at about 500 points since...2009... Wow, I've been away from Warhammer fantasy for longer than I thought.

Nice to see some kind of limited pre-release confirmation. I just wish they would make a better attempt, that voice over vid is horrendous it's like something rustled up over a lunch break. Truly terrible effort.

I take it normal knights are still in there but you just forgot to add them?

i'm liking the new plastic versus gw making everything finecast and jacking the price up.

[Greatwulf]

great post kuffy, Those Demigryph knights look cool but to be honest big monster cavalry don't seem very empire fuffy to me.

[ikbuh]

Why is it that every army gets a big doofy thing with a comically large amount of STUFF on it? The VC one is just busy as hell and the new Empire one is just covered in STUFF.

Am I the only who thinks less is more?
