Checkout the rumors that are flowing this morning about what may be the final wave of Tau models to be released, the Battlesuits!

Argl, so much stuff in the WD. I’ll do a first post then add things afterward. Prepare for double posts. First, prices:

– Commander (apparently with a drone) – 40€, 30£, 50$
– Crisis Battelsuits (3 suits + 6 drones) – 60€, 45£, 75$
– Drones (2 drones) – 9€, 7.7£, 12$
– Warzone Damocles: Kauyon (campaign book) – 60€, 45£, 74$
– Codex Tau (128p) – 39€, 30£, 49.5$
– Tau cards, Raven Guard! cards, also White Scars cards!! for some reason – each 10.5€, 8£, 13.5$

So from that it looks like we know the White Scars will once again be part of the Damocles operation. I wonder if that book will be similar to the Shield of Baal books that came out to supplement the campaign boxes as well? Here’s hoping for some new Astartes rules for fighting the scrawny xenos, AND maybe to make the Raven Guard soar high again!
