So the manager at my local GW got back from Nottingham a while ago. And couldn’t help but tell me theres talk of a new chaos codex coming this year at the HQ. I’ve known this guy for years. I’ve never been brought into the back of the shop and had him tell me. Then he mentioned horus heresy stuff in October apparently. I’ve scanned through the internet and found nothing on either. Although he seems like he really wants me to.expect something. I’ll ask him for more info tomorrow. Not too excited. But he isnt a liar. And heck, he’s coming to me about this as I’m essentially tge biggest chaos fanboy at tge shop.
I’ll edit this post if some new info comes up. He said something about tau later in the year but I was too busy squabbling mindlessly about what could be changed. OH and apparently we are going to.be seeing a new deamon engine.. Joy.
…He told me to keep £35 handy around the end of this month to the start of September.
So to summarize today’s latest:
– CSM Codex coming before the end of the year.
– New CS Daemon Engine End of September (@ £35)
– Corroboration of Tau this year
– Corroboration of Plastic Horus Heresy October
Too soon, or not soon enough? Will we see the heavens align and give us THREE Power Armor releases in one year?
