40K/Age of Sigmar Rumors: Looking Ahead to October
There’s a lot of stuff floating around from GW, and the last days of September are slipping away. Let’s take a close look at October.
We have enough GW official announcements that we can start to rough out next month just by process of elimination.
Taking a look back over the last couple of GW seminars gives us a set of releases that normally come out within 1-2 months. NOVA was in August, so you do the math…
Then we have the recent talk and reveals from GW themselves through normal marcom channels. Putting it all together gives us these groupings:
Psychic Awakening
- Psychic Awakening I – Phoenix Rising
- Howling Banshees (Jain Zar strongly implied)
- Incubi (Drazhar strongly implied)
Wave 3 Marine Supplementals
- Salamanders Supplemental Codex
- Adrax Agathon
- Imperial Fists Supplemental Codex
- Tor Garadon
Ossiarch Bonereapers
- Ossiarch Bonereapers Battletome
- All their minis – (@7-8 kits I think)
Marine Missing Kits
- Infiltrators/Incursor
- Impulsor
Then you hit the Rumored Stuff…
Black Templars
- Black Templars/orks boxes set (Black Templars rules location unknown)
Piecing it all together
Thoughts
That is too much to stuff into October, so I’m assuming some of this slides into November. Knowing GW – I’m betting that Ossiarch Bonereapers arrive on Halloween – because it’s just too perfect… It’s also probably a 2 week release window with all those kits. The Supplementals have been landing on about the middle of the month. So that leaves the highest odds on either Phoenix Rising or the missing Space Marine units filling up the first half of the month.
Of course there is always the possibility of GW throwing a curveball with one of their many sidegames like Titanicus, Bloowbowl, Aeronautica or some of the others into the mix.
~In any case it’s shaping up to be a VERY VERY busy October. Save your pennies you plastic fanatics!
