We’ve seen them do this before just before a big release, and it ended up being a big update (Dust Bins Video Anyone???). 8th edition is right around the corner and they’ve talked about major rules changes. Could square bases part of those changes we’ll be seeing to make Armor fit into a Age of Sigmar style ruleset??
