i really cannot wait for this

QUOTE

Alright boys, girls, and nameless entities to horrible to name, I just found this interesting little info on the net from Warpshadow on an upcoming nid Codex. Seems the guy spoke to Phil Kelly during GD Germany. Heres the jist ofthe info...

-4 New Tyranid species, one of which apparently will make the current fex look like a dwarf (Trygon?)

-Return of Nid Characters... Apparently they will be big creatures that have survived wthrough battlefields and evolved into something better

-Plastic Hive Tyrant (WITH WINGS!)

-Codex is already done and written by the same guy who wrote the Guard dex, models are beeing worked on I suppose and probably balancing issues (Like GW does that )

-Tyranids will have evolved ways to deal with all the mech thats been plopping up... Meaning anti tank/skimmer... I believe its implied that Biovores will once again be viable!

-Release next year

thats how excited i am

Soz i'm being quite a grumpy killjoy here i know their only rumors but i do enjoy a good rant now and again -------------------- Montys Armies Space Marines (DIY Chapter) 6200pts Chaos Space Marines (Slaanesh Based)4500pts Necrons - 2000pts Chaos Daemons (Slaanesh) - 800pts Dark Eldar (Starting)800pts Magic The Gathering Black deck
