I've heard a rumor that Ghazghkull would be turned into a Lord of War, like Primarch in 30k, that sounds abit too much but it could be cool if that become true. (maybe this is related to the possible mini-dex/supplement about him)
via an anonymous source on Faeit 212 in response to Ork Supplement Inquiries ***
I've heard there will be a limited codex with an supplement included.

My lgs just confirmed his gw rep said Bret's are just around the corner. I didn't hear it myself so of course some salt but he seemed really sure (enough to not take my money for wood elves since he knows I'll buy the entire Bret stock)
