Late in 2015 there was some rumor that the Imperial Guard would see a new codex release in the early days of 2016. Of course, this was before the Mont'Ka and Kauyon releases and the new Start Collecting... sets being released.
Out of Kauyon, the IG got plenty of new formations and whatnots, and with the new Start Collecting set, they got another one. Because of that, I'm wondering if there's going to be a codex re-release this year, or if IG players will stick with the 6th edition codex they've been working from. Mainly, I wonder because I have a six-year-old son who wants to start playing, and we've decided he'll play Imperial Guard. It's about time to get the codex, but I don't want to drop $45 on the codex and find out two weeks later that it's been updated and now I need to buy it again, this time for $60.
Has anyone heard any rumors regarding the release of a new codex for ... /shudder... Astra Militarum?
