Well, it’s not improbable that IG will be in April.

But it is bit of a pain to track rumours (hence why I mostly stopped). First 40K Radio comes out with 7th Edition, nobody believes it, and than a week or two later, Bols “suddenly” has a rumour about an Orks vs. Blood Angels starter set?

There’s just too much bullshit going on in the rumour mill, and not nearly enough effort by the rumour-sites to sift the crap from the genuine stuff.

can’t really add anything to this.. but there was an off the cuff remark of IG in the first 3months of 2014 at GD.. the only useful thing to come out of “ShopDay” as you put it

oh and why shouldn’t they know the rules! The codex will have been written long ago, and the WD staff have just summarised it for WD. They just omitted some crucial areas, like an allies matrix.

my issue with them was that the WD was supposed to contain ‘The Rules’ for Imperial Knights and contained a section called this. However having spent my £2.40 on an appallingly badly formatted digital magazine (since my local GW had run out within hours) I found that there were many gaps and there weren’t really enough rules to field the things. Hence my email asking for clarification.

It’s a bit silly to think they’d know all the ins and outs there, before the rules are even released.

Outside the rules-writers and book designers, most of GW won’t get the book much earlier than the general public does…. in other words, not yet.

I’ll tell you this weekend, when I have the Codex.

I emailed three of GW’s departments (custserv, WD, FAQ) about the allies question and got two different answers- firstly everyone can have one except tyranids, second answer was only Imperial forces. This second source also said that although they are not Lords of War my opponent can still roll on the Warlord traits table in Escalation if they want to.

Confusing.

Everyone had IG in March after Tyranids in January (xept Natfka, who had Nids in December) and Dwarfs in February, until 40 Radio broke Knights about 35-40 days ago and send everybody else scrambling.
