Baltimore GT, Day 2: News and Rumors
Between our interview with Jeremy Vetock and the official presentation, we managed to get a few good rumors.The orks will definitely be getting new vehicles other than the truck. He wouldn’t say how many or which ones. My guess is a battlewagon and buggies/tracks.
Apoc datasheets will be released periodically (next is Nov 10 or 12) and new codices will receive the lion’s share. A few that he mentioned for the orks are pulsa rockets and shokk attack gun formations (“don’t cross the streams!”)
The exact contents of the 2 new ork box deals were officially released. Neither one of them mentioned containing the codex.
There will be a stormboyz upgrade pack. It contains the bits to turn 5 normal boyz into stormboyz. There is also a pack containing only ork glyphs. Good for customizing those vehicles.
Other rumors are that the Dark Eldar and coming up (no brainer) and space wolves would come sometime after them. Necrons and Inquisition are being talked about, but are still a ways off.
There is a clock in GW headquarters called the Squat Clock. It is set to 12 hours. When it reached zero, work on the squats will begin. Unfortunately, every time someone in the world mentions the word Squat, it gets reset. So far, the closest it has come to zero is 11:59:57.
There are plans to release a scenario book containing many new missions to play.
He did not tell us the about the new CityFight style book, but he did say we were close when asking about drop troops and ship boardings.
Also, plastic drop pods are on the way.
