hello

 

i dont think there have been any proper indication that ther will be a new codex by end of this year, what i have heard is that it is very likely there will be a code somewhere in 2009 but then again this is just speculation and some even say we wont get it next year. i dont think there has been any more concrete information but havent really checked for 2-3 months.

 

i usually take it when warseer starts producing pics, it will be coming soon and i think it will be leaked very fast when SW get redone like wild fire as we are popular, thats all i have

 

please note though this subject been discussed so please use the search function before posting as i know here has talked about it in the last 3 months most likel

hello again

 

that is a problem i know, the only thing i really know is this my local store (in the UK) are not getting any more SW stock anymore. read what you like into that.

 

anyway, i think you are relatively safe if you start SW now for atleast 6+ months IMHO. sorry but thats all i know

a new space wolf codex will be released no earlier than Winter 09.

 

this has been stated time and time again, so for now, go with your gut. that said, its never a bad time to be a Son of Russ.

Asked my local GW rep about this just today, his responce was that Imperial Guard are the next codex being released, early next year at this stage (supposedly well known and confirmed, but aint heard it myself) and following that, it'll be either Dark Eldar or Space Wolves but not to expect anything till at least mid 2009...

 

Tau are supposedly also on the cards for a revamp in the new year, so it could definately be a while before the a new SW Codex is released... ;)

Other than specific model changes, like the ones from the Baltimore (?) thread, everything centers on the Troops within the new SM codex, which would lead to the SW codex. Just buy a couple of Tactical Squad boxes off e-Bay (where I buy most of my stuff, new only), and wait for the bits to appear next year, and update.
Theres another rumor that i have heard, i repeat rumor, that there will be new Wolfy model goodness with the second wave of new marine stuff. Just to clarify thats a rumor that i personally have only heard from one source, but one can hope right?

Plausible... maybe even probable... what I would bet for models though is mid 2009.

Well I would have to say they might come with the second wave as well....they focused on Codex Marines for the first shot, so maybe non-Codex Marines are up in the next shot....may not be true but hey I gatta get that warm and fluffy feeling somehow
well at the place i go play, one of the owners showed me some site where someone who works for gw leaked info about the new codex. i cant remember the site but i will try and get it. i just remember two things it said. One is the they are taking true git from gray hunter(which is gay as <DELETED BY THE INQUISITION>ing <DELETED BY THE INQUISITION>). But it said they are also bring back Bjorn the Fellhanded as an official special charters, which sounds awesome as hell. Last i heard about the date it comeing out is in January

Sorry but the above information is false (about coming out in January), this slot has already been filled and SW's won't be out til later next year.

 

As for the true grit, we've been hearing about them getting rid of it but giving "csm options" instead such as bolter, bp, ccw, which is better anyways. (for the most part)

 

Also we've been hearing about Bjorn the fellhanded and a re-vamp of the other special characters, possibly njal? the most useless psycher ever...

Yeah, I hope we are getting the Space Marine basic weapons loadout (Bolter, Bolt Pistol, CCW) so that we don't have to worry about that, especially when most other Space Marines don't now (besides, I've been waiting to put Bolt Pistols on all my models =D).

 

Bjorn HAS to come back, how can we not have a playable character like him? Plus we need more beyond the obvious, namely a Rune Priest, which I believe we will as I believe (and this is just my opinion) we should get more psyker abilities, we get a whole one as opposed to the normal 2 out of what 5 or 6 for other Space Marine psykers?

I just want to see Bjorn. As far as Runepriests? Well, the Wolves aren't too hot on psykers. If he's very strong, he'd be used almost always, which goes against fluff. If he isn't, it'll go with fluff, but no one except the devout will use him.

while the Wolves are very anti-psycher, they are pro Rune Priest.

 

why?

 

the Space Wolves believe that the Rune Priest's ability comes not from the Warp, but from the planet Fenris, which is why the RP are decked out in talismans and such. this means they are "in tune" to their gifts even when half a galaxy away. in fact, the RUne Priests accompanied the Space Wolves during the Great Crusade.

(psychic powers and sorcery are not the same thing. psychic powers are "gifts" that are inherent in a person, while sorcery is a learned art. with psychic powers you use energy focusing through yourself, while sorcery you summon the power from the warp's entities. that is why psychers were present in Imperial forces, whereas sorcerers were banned after the council of nikea)
