What lies ahead for 2012 and 2013? Well this rumor set of full of adjustments. Dark Angels being the first codex of next year instead of Tau for example. If true, I would think Tau would be right after DA, but lets get to the rumor first.

A lot of talk over these rumors say that he is just writing down what he got from Beasts of War. However, I can tell you that most of these rumors did not come from BoW first, some in fact came from Grant here on Faeit 212, others from Tastytaste, and even more from Stickmonkey, Harry and others. So I beleive he is not just repeating rumors, but who knows.
