Lower left. Looks like we're getting a half-assed Sisters codex

Got woken up for this...
The plastic kits better be good to make up for a WD codex.
Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

Nope, I just checked Warseer, the chap who posted the picture posted pictures from the Storm of Magic stuff as well, no way he could fake it all. SoM stuff [URL="http://www.lounge.belloflostsouls.net/showthread.php?p=143554#post143554"]here[/URL], by the way. Go look, its all fantastic and wonderful.
If the rules are good and the plastic kits are excellent and well prices (not like GKs) I can cope with this. If the rules are poor I won't be very happy. I doubt the models will be poor because Jes Goodwin is supposed to have done them.
Edit: Ok initial grumpiness fading, happy SoB are getting new rules and if the models are as nice as we have been led to believe I'll be buying lots.

What I'm wondering is when the new kits will be released. Will it be in connection with the new codex, or later?
Good question, given the codex is coming in two parts. I would imagine one wave in August with the first part and one wave in September with the second.

Me, and many many people with me, wanted to see more meat in WD. More rules, added models, new missions, etc. But what we get is replacing an actual codex with 1/8th of the pages in WD. I wanted mini-codex Imperial Fists, not this
I wish the powers to be at GW could be as nice and awesome as many of the people working for them. Called up customer support today and got to talk to a really nice guy that without question is replacing my airbubbly Queek Headtaker. Guys like Jes and Phil are obviously awesome from every report I'm hearing. What gives?
That said, if Jes has sculpted some awesome sisters I am getting a box or two to paint. But a GW codex won't be the basis for an army. It will be too thin.
A codex is 96 pages in general, a WD is about the same. They could easily put a proper sized codex in WD over two issues. Whether they will or not remain to be seen.

SON OF A -mutter grumble- stupid frakking....-mutter grumble- better get some good frakking models darnit -grumble-
Colour me interested. I'd settle for a points and/or rules adjustment rather than a half arsed set of rules.
But in reality, awesome models will only carry an army so far. If the rules for the army blow chunks, who's gonna play it.
