Title: The Whips of Mordor crack! GW Release Schedule 2013
Post by: MM3791 on February 15, 2013, 05:58:52 PM
For months it has been rumored that GW is increasing the rate of release for their books and codexes, and now it would appear that the effect is finally coming to fruitation. While these are just rumors, we will have a very good idea in about a month which direction it is heading.

Jan: DA
Feb: WoC
Mar: Deamons
April: Tau
May: High Elves
June: Supliment
July: Wave
Augustt: Wave
September: Special Yearly Box
October: Lizardmen
November: Eldar
December: Hobbit 2

Its said that Daemons are supposed to go for preorder on Feb 23, so if that happens and Tau go on preorder in late March, then we can probably assume the rest of the list is accurate. Again, they're just rumors but I thought I'd pass it along for anyone interested.

A rumor (95% confirmed) is that next month is "the winter of flyers" with a new flyer supplement and flyers for tau, eldar, etc. The supplement is the most likely addition, but the actual flyers, I don't think thats true.

 In other world, November will most likely wipe my wallet out, lol  ;D

GW is going to pump out so much content in such a short amount of time, none of it can be properly evaluated, criticized and analyzed within the context of the overall game.

Good times ahoy.

Because they're smaller and/or have better quality control?

I think you just answered your own question.. GW might be starting to feel its competition increasing, so it has to provide better support for its game.

Back when my friend first introduced me to 40k, I asked him "So GW releases a new codex for every army in every edition, right?" He laughed in my face lol

Regardless of the "why", its good to see the game that I love receive the proper level of support.  ;D

Holy crap, is a SR really $82.50, now?  Weren't they like $66 when they first came out, and that was only like 2 years ago?

There's no justification for this crap.

They went up with that 20% gw hike back in June. Starting to feel like gas prices...

"Gather round kids, let me tell you a story... back in my day a Box of ternimators was only $40!!!"

It would appear that the Tau codex is no longer available to order for retailers. Speculate at will  ;)

My Tau are kicking just fine since 6th.  Having big shiney guys t stand in front really helps.   ;D

At least one set of rumors today was a bunch of Do Not Want...but they also had something off sounding about them, so I'm hoping they're just not true.

Ability of Tau to overwatch for other units nearby has popped up at least a few times, though.

Wood elves are not on the list but are speculated to get a book sometime next year, when 9th ed is released. Since wood elves(elves in general) are such a fickle army, its going to be worth the wait so it works with the new edition.
