New rumors are here, come see how the rest of 2015 and the start of 2016 are looking from Games Workshop!
Via Our Friends at BoLS:
This schedule is pieced together form multiple rumormongers.
Tau:
Look for Tau to continue through the rest of October. This is a 4+ week full redo of the range and codex.
Horus Heresy:
The Horus Heresy will take up most of November and get lavish attention from GW. Look for an October 7th Kickoff and there will be the boxed set, and special tie-in freebies in White Dwarf (Pins are reported to be coming very soon by Mikhael)
Age of Sigmar:
AoS will get another release window towards the end of the year at some point in December. Look for another campaign book with a faction of Order vs a Chaos faction and new minis. No solid info on what the two factions will be, but prime candidates are Tzeentch, Elves, or Dwarfs.
Assassins:
Those assassins from the Assassin Boxed game are finally going to make it into 40K individual clampack form. Look for these before the end of the year.
Holiday Bundles:
Expect no changes to the standard holiday bundles and special deals as we hit December. I would expect the Black Library Advent Calender to return.
2016
The chatter continues of Tyranids being the first 40K army getting a redo after Tau, and multiple rumormonger continue to chime in pointing to it coming right after the new year.
~begun this holiday season has?
