Chaos Rumors Part II

Well, TastyTaste over at The Blood of Kittens remains the king of rumors and his latest batch of Chaos rumors have the intertubes buzzing. 

The first set of Chaos rumors are here.

First off, I want to say that it just doesn’t make any sense for GW to release the new Starter Set with models that doesn’t have a codex, so we have to assume that CSM codex will be out before the starter set. The only way they don’t  (would be a big slap in the face) would be they add a mini update like Daemons and still put off the CSM codex release.

Anyway on to more rumors/leaks.

Remember I might just repeat other rumors floating around and debunk others.
