The Latest News and Rumors

Next weeks white dwarf #35 shows the DE Void Raven.
Here is what the new cover says.

Watch the Skies!
Dark Eldar Flyer Incoming!
Fear the Voidraven Bomber
Battlefields Darken in the Shadow of Sickle-Shaped Wings


Its has most of the aesthetics of the Razorwing Fighter, but larger with 4 Engines, 3 tail fins, and two Void Lances that protruding from the wings. In the main body, the pilot sits on a set of small bat-like wings with a long nose along the front. Its a gorgeous model, and if you like the razorwing fighter, the Voidraven looks very similar, just bigger and longer. Where the razorwing nose is open, there is a canopy for a nose pilot in the voidraven.

The Endtimes

The Endtimes is rumored to start up right where the Dark Eldar end. While its still unknown whether or not the Dark Eldar will be a two or three week release, its very certain that the Endtimes will be hot on its heels.

van Horstmann, Arbaal, Valnir & Dachala now lead the Chaos Mono Armies.

via Larry Vela on Bols ***
- 6 Week Release
- 1 week for each chaos god
- 2 weeks for the campaign specific minis

- I would expect the chaos god weeks to include dual-use kits for 40k/wfb (plastic major daemons are most often mentioned)
- The other kits are probably Archaon and his Lieutenants, as we saw with the Nagash wave.
- Fancy End Times bookset of course.
- Starts after Dark Eldar, so Oct 4th.
