Thoughts
Before you start – yes that is clearly not the full range of 7th edition codices. What that list actually is – is the list of obsolete mandatory core 40K products, that every GW independent stockist is required to stock. This means that GW is telling retailers to pack those puppies in and let them know so they can get refunds for the obsolete products they were required to purchase.
What is really means is the while there is no official release date yet – 8th Edition is VERY VERY CLOSE. This type of refunding from retailers is one of the very last things done before the rollout of new editions.
~ So hold tight folks – we’ve almost made it to the promised land.
