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)

September – Warhammer 40,000 “not 7th” (Boxed Set – described here)
October – Blood Angels

November – WFB Army (Bretonnia getting the most chatter)

December – Hobbit – Holiday Bundles

Now a couple of notes on this.  One as always these things get more inexact as we go farther and farther out, and GW could certainly have enough time to change up any of these more distant items based on market conditions.

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.

~Hmm, that’s a lot to take in.  Have at it everybody!
