        ??? Hardly anything has been released for the IG.
NO infantry, only some arty (no siege or deathstrike units),
no hydras, no airforce, maybe about half their tanks. Looks
to me like they just put out enough stuff to spruce up SM
armies.

released for Chaos by this time next year...

        Care to elaborate on said optional rules? Those
of us in the states won't be seeing 214 for another month
