Guess who may be getting a new starter box together a’la the Stormclaw Set! If this is true we may have a new precedence for future releases me thinks! via Lords of War 10-28-2014

I keep getting questions about a Tyranids Codex release and here’s some info.
1. This is a model release no Tyranids codex.
2. A Campaign book will be released and if I remember correctly it’s called Leviathan.
3. Blood Angels are still coming.
4. There will be a starter set that contains BA and Tyranids. It will be similar to Storm Claw.
5. Hope to update Blood Angel rumors this week. Hope this helps.
