The following is only a rumour. The source is our local GW store rep giving his best guess as to what to expect. So far he's been right everytime, but that still doesn't make him a Dev or anything. Nonetheless, to add to the growing number of rumours being tossed around on the issue, per him it is...

Chaos
Space Wolves (he did say if this was Blood Angels instead he would not be shocked)
Orks

In that order. He also said that didn't neccisarily mean 'soon', since he felt the trend of 2, max 3 codexs a year would be the new norm for W40k along with 2-3 for WFB as well. Actually he said 2, but that sometimes we'd get lucky.

So again. Another rumour for the mill here to process.

Interesting. I'm holding onto the idea that it's going to be the Orks out next, and if not them, then Blood Angels in White Dwarf.

Talking to a guy I know who works for GW I got a similar story. Basically Orks have been put on a back burner until next year, and that Chaos is going to be the next one to be released.

Basically what I was told:

Chaos
SM (BA or SW)
Orks

The guy didn't know whether the SM release would be BA or SW, but that one would be released then the other one a while later. The reason for the orks being delayed is that GW want to do a proper job and not rush them...

Cheers,
Rich.

thats correct it will be BA in white dwarf, then chaos then space wolves then orks

Driftster · February 22nd, 2007, 20:28

Wolves don't need a new one quite yet.

Think about it, they're a tradition based nomadic society...

How much chance will there be? Enough to make a dex? I highly doubt it, and new models are born with every other chapters dex debut, just throw a pelt on them and boom new model...

Blood angels would be understandable but not before ORKS...HELLL no...they better not..

Chaos i've heard rumors for aswell, along with the apoc suppliment(waste..but hey, i want a big GW baneblade on MY table)

So, i'd like to see

Chaos-update
Ork
Bloodangels
dark Eldar
Then Spacedogs.

Adrian MalSeraph · February 22nd, 2007, 20:37

Jeez, how many times are Orks gonna get pushed back? I don't play orks but I definitely want to see a new Ork Codex rather than a Space Pup codex.

Legionnaire · February 22nd, 2007, 20:59

jesus christ...

Orks > Space Marines chapters. Get it right for once GW.

RobtheGuru · February 22nd, 2007, 21:35

I dont see why the Space Marine chapters need their own books. Surely they can just create some chapter specific rules and post them on their website or put them in white dwarf, rather than taking away updates from entire races.

Adrian MalSeraph · February 22nd, 2007, 21:43

You should know this by now, Rob...

GW's Policy

More Books=More Money
More Models=More Money

Simple enough.

Edit: Double post.
