Looks like Blood Angels rumors are at an all time high, as something is coming out Nov 21 for sure.
Will it be the “Must Have” Warhammer set of the year, or something even bigger?
Checkout the story courtesy of BoLS.
The steady rumor drip drip drip continues on that Blood Angels vs Tyranids campaign box set:
Gary’s got a live one 11-6-2014
Regarding “Shield of Baal”
Shield of Baal is the first release for the campaign. There will be more. It comes in two hardback books and in a slipcase.
book 1 comes with all the details on the invasion- background
includes the invasion of the Cryptus System, called the shieldworlds of Baal.
the astra militarum, blood angels and even the sisters of battle are mentioned here.
book 2 is rules including, Echoes of War scenarios (6), a cities of death expansion with 6 new missions, death from the skies rules for aerial combat.
Forces of Leviathan: a new detachment for Tyranids with warlord traits, datasheets for new units, and new formations
Which builds upon these from a couple days back:

“A New Campaign Begins!” pretty much points directly to the previous White Dwarf hints:

I don’t know if any other german WD readers noticed:
on page 20 of the current WD, where they talk about the various ways to benefit from the Toxicrene, some note is written in the bottom left corner (I’ll translate):
“Shield of Baal: Leviathan ist ausschließlic in englischer Sprache erhältlich, aber damit du sofort mit dem Spielen loslegen kannst, haben wir hier die Regeln auf Deutsch abgedruckt.”
“Shield of Baal: Leviathan is exclusively available in English, but for the purpose of playing immediatly we printed the rules in German here for you.”
So I think we got a name…
~ After all the amazing new units the Tyranids are getting, I’m expecting great things from the Blood Angels – like a flyer named the “Bloodbat”, dropping “Bloodbombs”, and a special rule called “Bloodhaze” 🙂
