Chapter Approved 2017 Coming in December.... Whats in It.



Chapter Approved 2017 is coming in December according this set. Rules for Adeptus Sororitas and Space Wolves which should lead us to believe that there are no codex updates coming for them soon. You can also see that certain codices are not listed here.... like Dark Angels, Blood Angels, and Chaos Daemons which are now known to be the next 3 codices.


As always with things like this, always use a grain of salt until we get some official information. I'm certain we will start seeing more very very soon. The image above is just from a previous Warhammer Community article, where they gave us some insight into what is coming. You can see that here.
