Myst

So I don’t have any direct knowledge. But the term Battlebox was used. Also “water and fyre” follows some of the other Battlebox styled names. Piety and Pain, Wrath and Rapture, and Shadow and Pain for examples. As such I personally would bet 100% on just a Hero and and older units for each army should it happen. Likewise it isn’t common for them to have the same number of releases at all. Piety and Pain had Sisters and Drukhari. Drukhari got only Lelith, while Sisters got what 2 heroes, a tank, a bodyguard unit and more? In the same vein Wrath and Rapture was a precursor to the updated Slaanesh daemon line while Khorne hasn’t seen any such additions or new sculpts. And Shadow and Pain gave us the new Melusi Ironscale, while Slaanesh once again gave birth to an entire host of mortal units after the fact to accompany the Lord of Pain. Daughters got what Endless Spells only? There’s no reason to expect both factions to get equal treatment. Also I want to thank everyone for the worries about my sources “identity” I’ve reached out to him and given that’s all I’m giving he said it’s fine. And he said if he has anything he can share about AoS specifically he will direct me to post it for you guys. Truthfully though he hears a lot more about 40K releases due to how aggressively GW is trying to get it out. Oh and he said “Death” in June. I took it as Bonereapers. But he didn’t actually say Bonereapers. I totally forgot that there are credible Nighthaunt rumour engine pics, so take that however you will. Sorry for the assumptions on my part. I will be direct with information now and not try to fill in the blanks.

Sadly not specifically. He doesn’t tell us what he has playtested but has said 3 Idoneth and 2 Fyreslayer, but not specifically what. I would assume the other rumours about Eldar and Chaos releases (7 for Chaos and 11-13 for Eldar) to be accurate for 40K.

So I’ve been directed here to help fulfill your eager rumour needs. I will be the first to say I do not have rule rumours, in fact most people with people in the know have no such info. It’s more vague release schedules. January - Custodes and Genestealer Cult (40K). No AoS. February - Tau (40K) and Deepkin (AoS). Water and Fyre Boxset. March - Fyreslayers (AoS) and Chaos Space Marines (40K) April - Nothing? (Well a limited Eldar boxset with codex in early April awaiting the late may release. See Below) May - Eldar (40K) June - Bonereapers (AoS) Id like to point out that this has drastically been delayed already, so don’t be totally surprised to see this stretched out even longer. And before you all ask, no. I don’t have any concrete timeline for anything past this (and this isn’t even concrete). I haven’t heard anything about Chaos Dwarves, Ogors, Skaven or the like. Also this information is provided by a person at a local store who is 100% a play tester and has been part of GWs network since the early 2000s Grey Knight program. He has also given accurate information to us for previous releases. He doesn’t give us rule access due to his NDA. I am suppose to add that just because a month looks “empty” it doesn’t mean it is. There will be Combat Patrols for Thousand Sons and Grey Knights. Model releases for some of the armies split over two waves extending into other release windows. As well as Vanguard boxes for both Warclans (they’re actually getting two) and Stormcast.
