They are confirmed for April (on the back of march WD).
There are dozens (maybe hundreds) of pages of rumour discussion on GK on dakka and warseer. Infact a slimline pdf version of the codex is already doing the rounds (not that the staff allow such things to be posted here of course).
It supposedly even has someone’s handwriting all over it, so I presume it will be very easy to track down who leaked it.
The Necrons date seems to be really confusing. I’ve read August, but I’ve seen lots of mentions of October, some of Nov, and a lot of people saying it’s first book next year.
Well, the fact that a book is coming out once a month for three months and there is mention of Necrons being redone, so I’d imagine it’s this year and not TOO long after May, IMO.
I’m very interested to see what this rumored summer WHF expansion entails. I would really like to see GW produce some kind of campaign book (Storm of Chaos style) that would introduce us to a new part of the Warhammer World (far east?) that could pave the way for all kinds of exciting future releases. I still haven’t forgotten those ‘new army’ rumors from about a year ago, and it would be really cool if the two were connected.
Was personally hoping for some plastic Black Guard/Executioners this year but I suppose they're a while away yet...

Exceptional idea.
But back on topic, it's really good to see GW giving so much support in such a good way for it's neglected armies! Dark Eldar are hot property, Tomb Kings being redone too!
Shame so many releases are only ten man boxes at increased prices...

No doubt I just be disappointed though.

How about a pirate army, they already got some models for it. Released previous year.
