There’s been a lot of confusion on the future of the 30K Rules – so we asked GW what’s happening.
Warhammer 8th Edition on coming soon and EVERYONE is excited about it!
The Question
Except the 30K players who are a bit anxious at the moment. Just last week folks noticed that there was a mismatch of messaging from official GW channels regarding the future of 30K rules:
Warhammer Digital product pages said: 30k will be getting updated rules to go along with 8th Edition.
Forge World product pages said: 30K will be using the current rules (7th ed.) once 8th Edition arrives.
And that led us to ask GW directly: “What’s up?”
30K players are a very loyal set of folks who really really love their plastic dudesmen, paid a high price for them, and rightly want to know what the future will hold for their hobby.
The Answer
GW Communications Staff asked BoLS to pass on to the community:
“Horus Heresy will carry on using the current ruleset right now (7th), and this will be the case for a while yet.
We will have confirmed news about the future of the Horus Heresy game and setting at Warhammer Fest at the end of May.”
We will have confirmed news about the future of the Horus Heresy game and setting at Warhammer Fest at the end of May.”
So there you have it – right from the horse’s mouth. It’s 7th Edition (“for a while yet”), and everyone sit tight for more word on what’s coming for 30K at Warhammer Fest.
~ Time to start stocking up on more Black Shields for me…
