News

New Releases this week are Death Masque, Codex Deathwatch, Deathwatch Datacards and Dice. (Go over the codex after rumors)
AoS campaign is over and the results are out! The Order Alliance came in first by a large margin in all three realms, followed by chaos, with Death and Destruction tied for last. GW has not released what the results will mean for the mortal realm but reviews have been positive, with store submissions being the primary way to record games, and transperency on GW’s part.
The Hammer of Wrath GT has come and gone, Brandon Grant and his Dark Angels were the victors. Brandon once again was the player with the most amount of wins in a pool of 60 players. This is impressive considering the player pool at the event. It felt like every player there had a competitive driven army, and a chance to win.

Rumors: The Rumor Section is gathered from the web and is not in any way information we receive from any manufacturer nor is it necessarily accurate. This section of the podcast is intended for entertainment purposes only.

Industry insiders tell BoLS:

Look for the new edition of the Grimdark to show up in Q2 2017.
The new edition is slated for arrival before summer of next year.
It will be a streamlined edition
Look for changes tailored to make the current game more accessable for new players.
Look for limited design elements to migrate from Age of Sigmar to the new edition.
This will NOT mean the Sigmarification of 40K, only a carefully selected set of rules organization decisions to make learning and playing much easier than things are now.
