40K Rumors: The Tyranid Release & Beyond

Don’t think the new year will slow down GW a bit.  The Tyranids Hive fleets will return with a campaign and an surprising opponent.

via a source who spoke to BoLS on condition of anonymity

The Tyranids release window begins in January 2016

This will be a Tau-style release with the following

New codex

3+ new units

Several older resin models will be consolidated into a multi-unit build plastic kit

1 new plastic Gargantuan Creature

The Tyranid release window will include a Kauyon-style campaign book that details the Hive fleet’s struggle against their opponent.

The campaign foe is Astra Militarum

Astra Militarum will be the followup 40K release window.

~I’ll let you start to speculate on exactly what the Tyranid “decurion” rules and what thier Lord of War model may be.
