Flyers in February?

Let's hope it's true. http://natfka.blogspot.com/2013/01/february-white-dwarf-revealed-it-is-not.html

Now that's news! I can't wait to see the stats/model for the Eldar flyer also news about models for Vect, Sliscus, and new options for Grotesques?

Also daemons are supposed to get some models as well in Feb which is a rumor too.

I'm never going to have money again.

Eldar flyer rumor says it has distortion missles ..so I'm assuming its like a wound on 2 +, instant death on a 6,glancing vehicles on a 3-4, pen on a 5-6 type weapons. I really hope the Eldar flyer is anti flyer and not so anti infantry like the dark eldar ones

All of those are accurate, but it's an air caste pilot who is tau, not an alien.

There are some expanded vespid options being explored and the Tau empire is really being fleshed out as a commerce driven "all are welcome if they serve the common good" attitude.

the current schedule calls for Daemons in feb and flyers in march.

A fantasy update in April and then it's 40k and a little bit of hobbit from May to August with a new supplement and then a big launch in September for 40k, then a fantasy fall and shares Christmas.

Anything more than 2-3 months away though is subject to change except that this summer is getting a really awesome 40k supplement.



The rumor above is a response from a different source to the following rumor that is from earlier today.

Next White Dwarf will feature aerial battle using campaign of fire rules and NEW flyers

Tau receive a flyer and data sheet for it. Fast attack choice. Armor 11 all around. Non tau pilot. Looks like a manta ray flying backwards. Bs 4 super sonic. S6 ap4 missiles. Off center gun heavy 6 str 5 ap 4 twin linked or single small blast Str 8 ap 2.

Eldar flyer and data sheet for it. Very similar stats to dark eldar flyer has missile lock, has distortion missiles.smaller fighter looks like elongated vyper.

The harpy for tyranids. Nothing to note. Not a dual kit.
The final surprise. A fourth flyer. The long awaited dark eldar bomber

via Lorizael over on Dakka Dakka
My sources say this will be a 70 page "compendium".

It will have updated 6th edition rules for flyers:

Stormraven (now available to space marines and Black Templar)
Storm Talon
Ork Bomba / dakka jet / burna bomba
Valkyrie / vendetta
Razorwing & Voide Raven
Night Scythe / doom scythe

also dog fighting rules from crusade of fire and a new flyers scenario.
I'm told this book will be a range item and not a limited release.
