There has been a LOT of rumormill activity these last 2 weeks. Let’s try to put it all together:

Ok, what we doing today is collating all the rumors that have shown up in the last couple of week and making a laundry list of everything that is said to be coming “before summer” in Q1-Q2 of this year from every source out there. There will only be a rough attempt to put these in order – and we are mainly sorting these by “sooner” and “later”.

You all can pick through these and try to figure out what you think GW’s best release schedule week to week might be.

“Sooner”

Chaos: Grand Alliance AoS

Order: Grand Alliance AoS

Death: Grand Alliance AoS

Destruction: Grand Alliance AoS

Death Release Window (starring an undead giant) AoS

Space Wolves Release Window 40K

Space Wolves vs Chaos Daemons Campaign 40K

Horus Heresy Plastic Reboxes Release Window 40K

“Later”

Betrayal at Calth Boxed Game Sequel 40K

Oruks Release Window (starring a Wyvern) AoS

Duardin Release Window (starring a construct) AoS

Deathwatch Boxed Game 40K

 

“Wildcards”

Any Specialist Game Release (I would be shocked if they had any ready in time, but you never know)

Now that is a lot of stuff and we have 23 weeks to fill.  Obviously, there is too much stuff in the “sooner” pile and not enough in the “later” categories.  It honestly feels just a little thin based on the volume of content GW is capable of cranking out when they want too.  If anything, I could see them cranking out all of this (if it was 100% accurate – which it is almost certainly NOT) and about 3-4 weeks worth of additional releases.  You could hide an entire army in there is you wanted to.  Look at what GW did with Harlequins last year in only 3 weeks.

I’m positive it’s not exact, but this is the current state of the GW rumorsphere as of now.

 

~I’ll let you all argue about what’s most and least likely and how you would arrange the weekly schedule if you were GW.
