Will Games Workshop be updating the 6th Edition Hardcover Codex Books?

We’ve been hearing all about what NEW factions GW would be releasing, BUT what about the older codex books?

Here’s what may be on deck army wise for the rest of the year:

– Harlequins (duh)

– Adeptus Mechanicus/Skitarii (Q2)

– That funky Assassin boxed game concept.

– Plastic Horus Heresy (starter boxed set and a followup product line)

And now….

The following 2-3 books look like they are on the schedule for this year (from soonest to last):

– Space Marines

– Tau Empire

– Eldar (maybe, could get pushed off to next year)

New Horus Heresy is being confirmed by everyone out there, the real ‘controversy’ seems to weather it will be before or after the fiscal year for Games Workshop starts in June.

Plus Warhammer Fantasy 9th may be on deck as well.

So what do you think needs updating more, Marines, Tau OR Eldar?

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits sprung from Rob staying motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects, while sharing his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.

LEGO maniac and scale model hobbyist in the 80s turned miniature wargamer and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy (since 5th Edition), but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of pewter and resin.
