One another topic, its gonna be halloween soon. What do we expect at this occasion? At least one mini for Death (like the rumored « hero morghast »), or the FEC tome? Something for SBLG or nighthaunt ?

Good point. Halloween lands on a Tuesday in the UK so for Halloween Eve, New Model Monday should be Death related!!

Orcs VS Empire is coming in August at the earliest.

The two windows for FW games are August and November.

November will be the next BB edition so August is the perfect window for Old World

Once again, dawnbringers 4 is out before the end of the year, as per their roadmap. 

On that schedule, dawnbringers 3 will be a lot earlier. Poss preorder announcement Sunday.

Dawnbringers 4 is just listed as winter, which for GW can be December, January or February so it could well be out next year.

As a reminder, here is GW's seasonal calendar: 

Winter (December/January/February)
Spring (March/April/May)
Summer (June/July/August)
Autumn (September/October/November)

Once again its winter 2023.

If it meant Jan, Feb, it would say roadmap 2023-2024 on the top, as they have done in previous years:

And this year they only put 2024 on those which included spring releases on the roadmaps (Warcry, Heresy and 40k). Underworlds, AoS and, most importantly, Kill Team only list 2023 and Winter. Kill Team's Winter slot is box 2 of the new season. We only got box 1 revealed on Saturday so unless you're suggesting they'll release both Salvation in November and box 2 in December then it clearly doesn't work like you're suggesting.

In fact if you're right then in December we need to fit Kill Team box 2, an Underworlds warband, Dawnbringers book 4, Flesh Eater Courts, Ad Mech, Necrons (both listed as Winter 2023 on the 40k road map) and potentially Christmas Battleforces (seeing as they got split release dates last year with some in December) in GWs shortest release month.

Winter doesn't mean before the end of the year. The fact that is missing 23-24 doesn't mean it would be released before 2024, specially when the releases schedule is so f***** up as it is right now with crazy delays and 2 weeks preorders to be able to handle demand.

Winter doesn't mean before the end of the year, but it is explicitly the 2023 roadmap, not the 2023-24 roadmap, which strongly suggests it will be before the end of the year.

I think the disagreements are kind of missing the point. Most of the roadmaps come from this spring. Since then we've had the Legions Imperialis delay and the production/ supply chain problems. The little run of two week pre-orders definitely wasn't planned since the spring. There have already been changes to the original plan. More stuff has probably been changed but they are unlikely to put out updated roadmaps as things seem to be influx over at gw right now. 

The 40k kill team box feels late. It would suprise me if they had originally planned box one in September and box two in December. Gw have been pretty consistent in trying to put three months between boxes. With box one coming in November, I'd expect box two in February. 

 

Winter including next year is pretty light on 40k  releases so far but spring is looking pretty packed. In winter we just have Necrons with three minis and Admech with one. In spring there is dark angels who are getting a major update, Tau who look like they are getting a big Kroot update, Chaos marines who are getting bikers and maybe more, orks with at least a hero, and Custodes with at least a hero. 

With old world all but confirmed for February where does this leave AoS? 

Cities are definitely coming sometime in November. We are due a lot of kits so I'd be surprised to see them share a week with Dawnbringers 3 but there aren't many weeks left in the year. 

 If book 4 is death I'm expecting a similar release to book three so two boxes with a hero and friends. That's not a massive release so launching it alongside a FEC  box is possible. I could easily imagine they planned to launch that in December but now it has slipped to January. 

They could then do book 5 at the end of February with Darkoath replacements for marauders on foot and horse and maybe a manticore replacement too. 

I'd be surprised if we get through all of spring without anything for AoS. I'd expect a medium sized release since there's so much 40k stuff due but I've no idea what that could be. The worst case scenario is that spring is just the full FEC release after a launch box in winter. The best is a surprise new faction.

There’s also the mid-best case scenario the Ironjawz just set as a precedent.

surprise sub-faction update with a free battletome supplement.

That way they could put some exciting filler in there like some Gholemkind models & free supplement that adds onto the Kharadron tome or the like(River Temple Lumineth, S2D Ogroids boost, new Khainite Scathborn, Bonesplitterz mini-refresh to close off Ghur story arc, etc)

agree with your thoughts and really wish it happen, but after last preview, release schedule looks no more space for more goods..

looks like FEC will be announced on mid of November so.... the only chance is preorder immediately after preview, then we can get it on first or second week of December?

The roadmap was shown with the idea of Epic being released in August.

Hope so,

I am really afraid about current situation of FEC, look back past years, every Armybox came with multiple preview..

steelhelmet first shows on April, release on September.
lizardmen shows on January, release on March.

it's so tired, sigh... :( 

but look on the bright side, the return of summerking is most hints on narrative books and Warcom I ever seen before. even Lion el'jonson didn't get that many story for hint his return.

We have two more previews this year, one on November and another one at the end of the year. So...
