There are all sorts of hints and rumors about the upcoming campaign that is hinted on in the back of this coming weekend's White Dwarf magazine. We have been heavily involved last week and this one in a Tyranid wave of models, and it looks like with last week's hints, we will be seeing possibly another model release. With that said, its very likely given the rumored name of the campaign Leviathan: Shield of Baal, that the campaign will be Tyranids vs Blood Angels.
Of course this is what the rumors have been saying, and Blood Angels are the rumored next codex release. What is interesting is that we are hearing hints that we may see Necrons entering the fray of this campaign with an end of the Campaign tie in. That would surely be an interesting twist, and a lot of fun.
here are some of the latest hints on the campaign Leviathan: Shield of Baal.

After seeing the likely name for the new campaign coming on your site "Shield of Baal: Leviathan", I remembered where I'd seen that name before.
"Shield of Baal" is the title given to the captain of the Blood Angels 1st company. I've attached a pic of page 9 of the current Codex: Blood Angels backing this up.
This may be a hint that we will be seeing Captain Karlaen, the Shield of Baal, of the Blood Angels 1st company in the rumoured campaign boxed set. This would roughly mirror what happened in Stormclaw with Krom Dragongaze, if so.

"The Shield of Baal" is the title given to Captain Karlaen, the first
company captain of the Blood Angels, it's in the codex. This is not
hinting towards a rumor or anything, but it might give a little context
to the upcomming box set? Might be worth reminding people, see if anyone
has anything to say about it.

BA are next i can say that with absolute certainty the only thing i can confirm on Necron is when pondering whether to start up a necron detachment i was told not to waste my $ on the book which is exactly what i was told regarding SW before their dex was released so i can surmise that the necron book will be very soon(within the next 2 months) just as it was with SW.. specifically i was told the campaign would be tying 2 codex together so the end of this campaign almost certainly feature the sleeping menace of an ancient race that has awakened once again..you heard it here first!!
