View Attachmentgot this from white dwarf daily... I see our beloved nids in this pic. Hope this wasn't what they used the display pieces for. Still praying for Nidvember but cant say that this hasn't got me slightly worried. Shouldn't have you worried. These pictures would have been taken a while ago while someone sent the cabinet pictures in a couple of days ago

Still praying for Nidvember but cant say that this hasn't got me slightly worried. Chances are they are being photographed a lot for the upcoming months. They are a common enemy of Ultramarines, for one, and they are likely getting their own book in the near future. That, plus there's allegedly an Ultramarines Supplement, a Warzone that may include both, etc.

Rumormill seems to be gearing down a tad as of the past few days. Doesn't mean Nidvember isen't a possibility, though, in fact as we get further into september som more reliable sources should be popping up everywhere. I think it really boils down to what is in the Mystery Box of Oktober, if there is even going to be one or if that month will see the release of a Fantasy Army Book. I'm getting the impression that Orks and Imperial Guard are runners up for the next codex, but I'd be surprised if they were to get a codex before Tyranids, even if they are more outdated.

Oh, screw rumours now. I've got my hopes up too many times before. Summer of Fliers 2011. Nids last January. The Harpy last summer. All rubbish.
Most of the rumours on the internet aren't correct and they only get the timelines right a few months before, when anyone can predict that Space Marines, or whatever, are next.
I don't believe anything anymore unless it is a teaser from GW, or I have seen leaked pictures of fully painted new models (Like we had with the Tervigon, and recently the new SM) that proves they're soon. Everything else is just speculation.
Yes, there is a lot of evidence for Tyranids in November, but nothing concrete. Until leaked pics come out, I'm believing nothing.

I don't think we've had such consistent rumours and such extensive level of detail before, so the nidvember at least seems plausible, so I will keep the faith until it is proven wrong. This will provide a heavy expense month in november with codex, new minis and the PS4!!!

So what? Rumors are fun. Everyone talks about the changes they would want or expect while hanging out at the shop. Doesn't hurt to do it here to. I agree that know should take any of these rumors as gospel, but they are the highlight of my day to read about. How about the primarus for the buff psychic table giving eternal warrior to a friendly unit? That would solve the warrior/ravener toughness issue and fill the primarus slot. Boom head shot!

IIRC November is usually when the Black Box comes out, and there are a number of candidates this year but due to the nature of the Black Box none would include Tyranids. However I may be remembering wrong, and/or they may decide not to do Black Box this year. I would however be surprised if we got two 40K codices released in successive months. At the very least one would expect to see a Fantasy army in there somewhere. I think January is the most likely month for the Tyranid release.

Actually it appears (according to consistent rumors, anyway) that this years Mystery Box will be in October, being either Inquisitor or Blood Bowl. I don't know if any of those are viable guesses, but assuming it is Blood Bowl, a 40K Codex in November seems more plausible. However, recent rumors question whether there will even be a Mystery Box this year, and if not, which Fantasy Army will recieve its new Book. Apparently its most likely to be Dark Elves or Dwarves. In any case, an October release of something Fantasy-related could open up the possibility for a Nidvember. But yeah, those are just rumors, nothing is set in stone.

If we get a mystery box, or a Fantasy book then at least someones rumour is correct.

The "Summer of Fliers" ended up giving us the "Death from the Skies" supplement. While it was hyped as more than that, it was just hype. The previously rumored Tyranids release gave us the Tervigon and Hive Tyrant kits, just out of timing. The Harpy rumors were mistaken first as the Flyrant (in a blurry pic), and then a confirmed observation of the Harpy being finished. Chances are it is done, GW is just waiting for the codex to drop. You don't have to believe anything, but a lot of the previous rumors you listed (as false) were true, just inappropriately named or timed. What we DO know, is every 6th edition codex has been precluded with a flood of rumors; some true, some false, but it has always resulted in that codex being released. We also need to remember that GW has separated the 40k and Fantasy teams from all the supplemental releases, White Dwarf, and 'tweener products (like Dreadfleet and Space Hulk). In speaking with a few members of the writing staff, they said this was to ensure that army books and codices are NOT disrupted by the other releases. Just because October may contain a mystery box (nothing is guaranteed), doesn't mean we won't see an army book or codex.

Anyone else wish they would just combine the termagants/hormagaunts into a dual-kit and up the number of models to 20 once 6th edition codex comes out? I'd buy the hell outta that. More models per box, options on what to make, more extra Nid bits lying around...
*drool*

They had them in a combined box when I started playing Nids many editions ago, I guess it's a money thing forcing you to buy both.

More models per box, options on what to make, more extra Nid bits lying around... *drool* I guess they're distinct enough to not warrant it. Termagants are more streamlined, while Hormies are spikier - which doesn't make sense really since Hormies are the running Nids. I suppose you could do it, but the price would probably increase because of the extra parts. They would have to resculpt the base models to be more interchangeable, and there would be less of a distinction between each Gaunt. Not to mention, you'll be stuck with the same poses eventually. Look at the Tervigon and Tyrannofex. So no, I'm glad they're where they are. The only advantage would be ease of manufacture (after a transitionary period) for GW. Oh, screw rumours now.

Just because October may contain a mystery box (nothing is guaranteed), doesn't mean we won't see an army book or codex. I would not be surprised if there WAS a release soon; Nids are due for one, we have Codex models missing and we don't have a 6th Codex. Anyone can guess they will be soon-ish. Whether that is November or next year, I don't know. And I don't doubt that GW have finished the Harpy etc. and are waiting for a release. Maybe they were bad examples, and I suppose the rumours did have some credibility, but there have been plenty of times when you hear rumours of Nids in a few months, and nothing. Those are the ones I'm less inclined to believe. To my mind, Faiet is hit and miss with schedules, as in Stickymonkey (Is that right?). Usually if they get it wrong though, it is forgotten about quickly, yet we're all so quick to praise their correct guesses. I'm sure they do have some information and they are usually more correct the closer they guess, but then anyone can make an educated guess. It's when they predict things for next Autumn and Winter I have doubts. It's not I don't want to believe in rumours. I do! Nidvember would be awesome, and, like I said, I would not be surprised if they were next. Unfortunately though, Yori is right - the amount of times the rumours haven't been accurate (accurate meaning they have got bits wrong, even if they are fundementally correct, like the Summer of Fliers supplememt) means it isn't worth getting worked up until there is something concrete. Simply having the models missing from Warhammer World isn't enough in my books. But as soon as I see something concrete, I'll be first in line!

Btw, what's happened with TTH interface? Every time I click on next page I get dropped to the bottom of the new page and have to scroll all the way up. It's annoying.
