Hi folks,
I think this important news should not stay hidden in the Black Dragon thread:
There will be a major Warhammer Fantasy summer campaign next year. It will include some new rules ("lets call this V7.1.") and includes a lot of mainly cavalry miniatures (mostly plastic).
These are rumoured to be:
DE plastic Dark Riders and chariot.
Chaos (demon?) wave (Centigors?, Seekers?)
Empire wave (knights?, war altar?)
Goblin wave (wolf riders?)
Vampire Count wave (black knights?)
Dwarves (Forge World airship!, no cavalry)
Most rumours are by steppingonyou and confirmed by 75hastings69.
Be aware that these rumours come quite early, more than half a year ahead of the date, so don't expect too many details and revelations for the next few months.

Well, lets say i did hear something somwhere (though guys, take this with all the salt you can find - even though it does make some sense) that the next waves for the already existing armies will be mainly 'mount based'. That is to say, i assume, knights for empire, black knights for the VC's, (wolf riders for the gobbos?) Though the empire knights might not be the most obvious answer, it's safer to assume that we'll be getting a war altar (but once they're in the mood for armoured horses, the'd might aswell make some knights )

I've heard this too.
