Ripped from SW:
Hi guys
I'm new to the site but I thought what better way to start by announcing the new SW codex is on its way for sure!
I know I'm new here but I've been posting on the Ex-Libris board (Blood Angels) for years and also on a few other sites too.
I work for GW (I know, I know but this is seriously genuine), we've had our plans for the rest of the year given to us and it go's a little like this...
May- WFB and 40k Deamon release
June- LoTR release (Mordor) and Hordes of Chaos White Dwarf update
July- 40k 5th edition release
August- WFB Hordes of Chaos army book release
September- 40k Marines release
October- 40k replacement for 'Battle for Macragge' release (Marines v Orks)
November- WFB Dark Elves release
December- 40k SPACE WOLVES codex release!!! This is a FULL codex release not a Blood Angels style White Dwarf update. However, no details have been revealed on it's contents or on the models- so anything you hear/see in that department is just rumour at the moment.
That said, things are subject to change; as was the case for the 'Planet Strike' release, which has been pushed back to next year to allow the team time to sort out the new plastic Thunderhawk (yes, that's correct; a new plastic Thunderhawk!!). Also the Guard were supposed to be done in the last quarter of this year but they will now be early 2009 instead.
Fingers crossed that the above releases stay true and the Wolves get a shiny new Codex by Christmas 2008!!
However, just because there's a new release doesn't mean it will all be good news... I just hope the Wolves don't get "Blood Angel'd" and lose their character to turn into a standard chapter, as my beloved BA did.
Cheers
Koris
