Fifth Vampire bloodline?
Apparently at least one other bloodline will be added to the new Vampire Counts book. They are known as the Strigoi, or "Ghoul-kin" and are misfits from other bloodlines, and are cast out or killed.
Release schedule for army books
This is what is known so far. The first army book to be released will be the Empire (d'oh!), followed by Orcs and Goblins, Dwarfs (which I've been assured looks very interesting), Vampire Counts, Dark Elves, Chaos Warriors, High Elves and Bretonnians, with 1-2 months between army books.
New Gotrek and Felix Books by Bill King
The next two Gotrek and Felix books by Bill King will be called "Elfslayer" and "Giantslayer" respectively.
Tuomas moves on
Not quite a rumour, but I haven't seen in mentioned in White Dwarf yet - Tuomas Pirinen (ex-head of the Warhammer design team and author of - among other things - 6th edition Warhammer) has quit GW to work at Elixir Studios, a PC games company. Fans of the erudite Finn need not worry overly much though, he has done some work which has not yet been released and there is always the possibility of him doing some freelance work later on. I think we all owe Tuomas a big "Thank you" for his work at GW, and I for one am looking forward to see what nuggets he will produce for us in his new position.
