40K – WFB Schedule Q3-4 and Lots of Notes
Lots of items bubbling up from all over regarding the second half of 2014. Let’s take a closer look.
First of all, go check out the Q1-2 2014 Schedule post HERE.
Onto Q3-4 2014!
June / July – Orks, Warhammer 40,000 “not 7th” book
July / August – Warhammer Fantasy 9th (book, or boxed set – unknown details)
November – WFB Army (Bretonnia getting the most chatter)
December – Hobbit – Holiday Bundles
Next, we have seen a general change from most rumormongers denying to now saying that we may indeed see GW update BOTH of their core systems in some fashion this year. Something I can’t ever remember happening before. but the catch is that at least on the 40K these are the “soft” updates meant to tidy things up instead of bringing grand change.
40K radio is reporting that the 40K “not 7th”book is somewhere lurking in June-July timeframe, and WFB 9th almost certainly isn’t taking up 2 back to back months on it’s own – so I would assume some slippery reporting in that area.
Simple math is reducing the amount of WFB books left untouched, so if that November slot isn’t Brettonia, its either Beastmen, or Skaven.
Last but not least, we have GW slip in a very late year 40K codex, and the two candidates for who’s up after Blood Angels is Dark Eldar or Space Wolves.
