----------> By the time they get around to Squats for WH40K, we'll have
Sisters of Battle, Necrons, Squats, and maybe the oft-rumored Dark
Eldar(joy). Might also get around to doing the Imperial & Eldar Knights.
I'd be willing to bet at that point if E40K is selling at all, we'll see
some kind of supplement including them. I wouldn't think they'd redo
the game unless we're talking years down the road from now, and I don't
see them just ignoring it unless sales really go in the toilet, so I'd
bet a smaller box or a stand-alone booklet covering the "new - un's".
Fingers crossed...
