Eldar getting shunted way to the back I see.

So as I imagined DA and the other Divergent Chapters are getting Supplements and not full codexes.

Maybe just 3 instead of 6 unique detachments? Wish they gave us some rules previews today.

3 detachments would definitely work for the DA with 1 for each wing.

What's Redacted for summer?

New Codex? Kroot supplement? Exoldites? Catchan supplement?

[Toxichobbit]

I see Guard players are getting shafted again. That's two editions in a row where their Codex has been released in the second half of the edition. I'm sure people love playing with out of date rules for the majority of an edition.

Everyone loves to play with outdated rules! Even better when you get a downgrade when your codex finally arrives... At least your chances are higher that the codex creep already has kicked in if you are in the second half.

Later update but with more model kits is 100 times better than early update with 1 model.

Could be fitting as either Grey Knights or an Inquisition supplement?

The Inquisition isn't an independent Faction anymore, they have been bundled together with the Assassins, Rogue Traders and Imperial Navy stuff and are now called Agents of the Imperium, which honestly with how little they have even as a group they more fitting for a WD than an actual Supplement.

[ZeroWolf]

Could that redacted codex be the Emperor's Children release that we're rumoured to have before years end?

 

Thats all I can think of at the moment since they would only do that for something completely new.

That sounds reasonable. Probably something similar would suit Blood Angels too. Angelic Host, Death Company and Flesh Tearers.

Seems unlikely that we would see EC so soon after World Eaters. Also are we sure "redacted" means a new faction? It could simply be GW's equivalent of TBC.

To be fair we got Death Guard less than a year after Thousand Sons, so it's not impossible. Of course the former were the headliners of a new edition, so maybe it's different.

 

My money is still on a dedicated Imperial Agents Codex though.

There is a reason

My thinking would be that they absolutely know who is coming out, maybe till 2025. 

 

Now, an exception just popped into my head that it could be the eldar, with the reason of "redacted" being if they need to delay it (on seeing if any of their fixes are working). If they need to delay it, we will have never known it was coming.

Would "Aeldari are still at a 60%+ win rate despite all the nerfs." be a decent guess as to the reason?

[TheMawr]

Redacted doesnt mean its something "special" or did they say something in that regards  in the show ? In the past they just used it when they felt its too early to say wich codex it is yet,  similar to the aos roadmap using blanco books.

 

I do think its one with a bigger amount of releases as i dont think sob and gsc will, so either eldar, votan or astra militarum. ( when following rumors )

[Special Officer Doofy]

Snail speed. If the idea is only a 3 year edition cycle, the codex cycle shouldn't take 2.5 years then. What a joke.

It's what has driven most of our group to play 90% of our games as 30K. The other 10% we're building up the steam for "7th ed without relics, decurions, & formations" and have been having an absolute blast. Will be doing a lot more for sure.

 

Not to mention the dumbing down of points, wargear, etc... in 10th souring everyone's tastes; but that's a whole different story.

They said during 10th ed launch stream specifically that the divergent chapters would get a full stand alone codex so its a pity its supplements

They're not due until spring so that was highly unlikely. We didn't even get a tease for the new winter army for heresy so spring rules weren't going to happen really.

When you’re in the guard that’s just your lot in life.
