Something is going on at Nottingham as yet another new project looks to be on the way from Games Workshop. What could it be this time?

Salt

So that’s it be sure to add a pinch of salt to taste, however we’re hearing some interesting things this morning via the webs:

First off Chickout posted this up a few weeks ago:

I’ll drop this here since I’m not sure it merits its own thread. (we really need a kind of 40k catch all for all the little rumour snippits)
Tom Walton who worked on many 40k vehicles is active on twitter. He mentioned that has in the office doing overtime sculpting minis for an army he has never worked on before.
30 minutes of Google fu later I have it narrowed down to Aos (he does vehicles so unlikely) nids (organic so unlikely) orks or sisters. So new ork or sisters vehicles incoming then.

An then BoLS dug up the rest:

A little detective work on Twitter verified the report Tom Walton@edgeblend:

games-workshop-secret-project

So take that for what it’s worth. Obviously time line does not add up for Genestealer cults vehicles so its is possible that more Xenos or even *gasp* sister release may be in our future. Or something for AoS that requires vehicles perhaps like the Dwarves for AoS?

We know for a fact that GW recalled Dwarf and Dark Elf models from many of it’s US stores as of late. Perhaps new models are on the way there?

Either way take your salt pills on this one y’all, and be sure to checkout what we know is coming soon for sure below.

Things are starting to solidify a bit more on the release scene for Games Workshop as we move into the fall. Come see what things are shaping up to be going deep into 2016.
