I'd read that as End of April // Early May. We'll see though. As long as any rumour doesn't come from Stickmonkey, I give it a good shot.

looks like gw is bumping up thier release schedule. good for them. its about time.

lets hope the momentum keeps going and we have every army book by the time the next version is out.

The gping rumour is.a codex every three.months with everyone being updated wiyhin 3 years.

Go home Robyn, you're drunk....

hes trying to type on his phone under the 60 year old lights of a federated coop cubicle, let the man be

Yeah!

Interesting. Wonder if Eldar will be after tau. Kinda wondering If I should get the basics before the annual price increase. But then I look at DZC and I just can't get any 40k.

Moar Tau rumours.

Potential April release maybe???

Crazy.

Highlights include, S8 on Broadside Railguns (ouch), but Skyfire (potential game changer, if AP1).
Skyfire on Seeker Missiles.
Kroot are -1S
If you get charged, all units within 6" of the charged unit can overwatch (bunch those guys up together!)
Aura's on the Ethereals, but apparently they all suck? (We'll see)

break me off a piece of that sweet sweet insanity.

Confirmation on the overwatch rule.

Right, just gotten off of the comlink to my contact in the icy north. Let's see now...
The codex is by Vetock.
The Ubersuit will not be competing for your Heavy slots.
Ion weapons will be overloadable.
Units will be able to overwatch to defend nearby comrades.
A new item of support gear will grant skyfire.
The new models are absolutely fabulous, much to the dismay of my future bank balance.

I dunno about broadsides becoming str 8. that would be a huge change in the standard tau gameplan. Would leave just hammerheads to penetrate av 14 other than meltaguns on crisis suits (terrible waste of points imo). everything else sounds pretty awesome. of course none of it will be true

suits will probably get cheaper.

the tau book is so old, what your playing now is probably going to be completly different than what will come out with the new codex. I wouldn't count on too many str 10 weapons to survive. especially with wargear that can grant skyfire...

i highly doubt that to survive to the codex. it would seriously cut down on the crazy amount of heldrakes and vendettas flying around. GW has proven the last couple of 'dexs they don't want that.
