Looks like Horus Heresy will be releasing in May, but did we over look some obvious clues previously?
Several eagle eyed Spikey Bits’ readers messaged me yesterday to checkout the wording on past few ‘experimental’ sets of rules for Horus Heresy models over on Forge World.
Check this out;
Via Book IV Conquest
The game’s officially called ‘Battles in the Age of Darkness’ right? With Space Marines army list called the ‘Legiones Astartes Crusade Army List’

Now checkout the wording on the upcoming Xiphon fighter’s rules (via Forge World download section).
Could the Age of Darkness EXPANSION be what’s releasing soon? Have we been overlooking this little tidbit recently on all the latest releases’ rules?
It sure seems like it, as here’s a rule from last year, (for the show only Navigator) that looks to be referencing the ‘Age of Darkness’ we all know and love as 30k now.

Maybe we’re just over-thinking it all, either way it’s interesting wording that’s for sure…
