Now I know the VC are all the buzz atm, but does anyone know what this next year is looking like for GW as far as new product. I know 40K's 4 year is up so it will be time for a new rule set I'm expecting that in about July or Aug. anyone hear any rumors or anything?

There is a rumour that GW are gonna make new night runners, plague monks, gutter runners, jezzails, globadiers and rat ogres. However I have just made this rumour up so don't put any stock into it.
Every rumour has to have a source I suppose.

I was like "Noooo! The plague monks are sooo cool!!!!" :lol:
Skaven will probably have to wait, IoB is selling like mad, so why bother? And we do have awesome models (imo the best looking) and a lot of 'em, so isn't unfair to ask more?
Dwarfs on the other hand, or HE's or even Brettonians... now they do have reason to complain, they list like 5-7 different units, we list more like 12... ;)
There will come a day that vermin shall conquer all lesser races....
the only race that triumphs above all others...
the only one that has the numbers to complete the quest....
the only ones that honor the one and only deity...
hail hail hail to the Great Horned Rat! Let his power guide us and from evil protect us...

There are rumblings about Empire and WoC, but no one claims to know anything for certain as to when.

Everything I'm hearing is about 40K, and more than half of that is probably junk.

There's a supposed 40K 6th Ed PDF out there, over 128 pages, full and complete, but it's dating from May of last year, which would be a bit old.

Only other point of concern is that there might be more 40K releases than normal, which would mean fewer fantasy ones...

That date of May last year is the best indication that it is real. Well, however real it turns out to be, considering Beasts of War's recent post on the topic.

The point is, it takes a hell of a long time to make a game. Even something as simple as an armybook will be finished 6 months before publication, and the models released for it will have been sculpted at least a year beforehand.

Have heard warriors are planned to get renewed some where end this year, and empire around the summer. But these are just rumors.
Also heard rumors about dwarf statues or so that are going to come out as a scenery kit.

And maybe some wicked stuff for the 25 years GW thing.

Do you have an online source for that? :) That's been doing the rounds for years as wish-listing, but I've never seen a solid rumour about it.

No Plague Monks in your army?!?! Blasphemy!! How do you kill things?! haha.

I was on Bugmans Brewery the other day and they seemed all excited that they would be the next book, though most rumors have it pretty solid that its going to be Empire. (Bleh...)

Empire would be nice, they could use a new Popemobile sculpt. And new knights sculpts.

Let's see LOTS of shooting, euuhm 2 abombs a Storm vermin hammer instead of a plague monk one... There are ways to kill without using plague monks. But i nothing gets the job done like a horde of rabid plagued monks going nuts at the first drop of blood. Aah pestilence without though the world would be a duller place.... :bow:

Theres that too, but im not a fan of the storm vermin models, they dont seem inline with the clanrats...

I really wish they had made them a lot buffer, closer to beastmen or something and made their bodys less triangular...
