Daemonhunters and Witch hunters codex

[Readon]

I haven't seen it mentioned here so I thought i'd let people know that after querying an order with GW I was informed that the Codex Daemon hunters and Codex Witch Hunters have both been discontinued with no due date for a reprint. Neither are available of the UK GW site now.

hm... they are out of stock and aren´t reprinted. does this mean, an new codex ist on the way (even if its a long way) or does this mean, the inquisition is dropped?

[Cryl]

I'm going to be all "glass is half full" on this one and take it to mean the arrival of new a codex or multiple books for some combination of Sororitas, Grey Knights and / or Inquisition is sooner rather than later.

Chances are the glass is actually half empty though...

as much as id like to see a new dex for my sisters soon, i doubt this a precursor for it happening though. all other rumours suggest 2011 earliest, and likely later. when i started 40k 5 years ago, they told me they were workin on a new witch hunters dex then, and ive been waiting since, and ill prolly be waiting when i die. its no prob though, as fortunately i love the models, and i just ignore inq. units in the current dex.

I know on the US site they removed the Battle Sisters Squad box from the troop section. I don't think itmeans much, but in the past GW has removed codices and battleboxes a few months before the new release. I don't think that is happening here, but it's certainly odd. They are probably just moving a few things around on thier webservers and there were a few mistakes as its probably way to early to expect a new codex and plastic sisters.

the sites aren't different btw except for the language.

Normally I'd say thats true, but the US site is still showing the WH codex whereas the UK has both gone. I wonder what that means in the real scheme of things. I'm not getting my hopes up though

You mean just like other old codices are discontinued when a new version is going to be released?

I look forward to the Sisters of Battle / Ecclesiarchy codex.

Current rumors indicate that a new codex/codices are most definitely on the way.

Half full. All current indication is that there will be a new codex in a year or two, and as Melissia pointed out, removing old stuff early is standard GW procedure.

In all probability, the DH and WH codices are fairly poor sellers, so GW probably currently has enough backstock to last the year or so until the new codices come out, so they can stop printing earlier than they would with another army.
