I've long since stopped following the development of all the variouos army lits on the SG playtest forum. Following them all is just becoming too time consuming and i'm just getting fed up with some of the "squabble" over details (not to insult any of the people who put a serious effort into platesting of course  )
However I was wondering what the status is for most of the lists? Are some of them settled so much that we might have something close to a finished product?
Cheers!

I have only followed the Nid one lately and the Chaos ones to a lesser degree.
Maksim has done a bang up job on the Nids, and has been quite dynamic in pushing out the changes and canvssing everyone for their opinions.

BTW,I sent Doug some of my Eldar, IG and Chaos TO&Es to post on this site, as some of you asked. They are not revolutionary, but a melding of Epic systems + ... He'll try to post them when he gets them ...

WN, you're not the only one who has gotten fed up with the endless squabbling.  I, too, give credit to those who are putting in a serious playtesting effort.

Chaos, L&D and Nids all have a deadline to turn into Jervis in September.
Both chaos lists will be affected by changing Summoning rules that are pending. The Black Legion list is down to a handful of issues. The L&D, imho, is nearly done and lacks only point adjustments from Audrey's last version.
I requested that MC23 submit the Ulthwe list to Jervis for the Rules Committee consideration and approval. I think it's been pretty much done for months. Hopefully, Black Legion, L&D, and Ulthwe will make a nice "Eye of Terror" e-release package.
Tau deadline is scheduled for sometime around December or January. Most reports say it is very close to complete.
Pretty much everything else could reasonably be considered "back burner" at this point, but a few are close to ready. IMHO, the Blood Angels is nearly ready. The other Eldar variants still need to be adjusted, but are close and could be done in a short period with a bit of intensive playtest.

Thanks Neal. That was exactly the kind of intel I was looking for.
Nice to hear about the chaos lists in particular. These are the armies I plan to concentrate on in the near future.
Cheers

So Chaos might get it's "New Minis" before long.
Of course, Nids is on the list too.

Dont get my blood up in excitment again Dafrca - I dont want the dissappointment if it all falls over.
Then again, I'm gearing myself up for what even Primarch would call a "Big purchase" when they come out...

I think we need to act quickly once the new stuff is out. It is hard to know how long it will be available and who would want to try and get some through ebay then.
I have bought some IG at full price because of that. My next "Large" buy will be if they redo the nids to look more like the new 40k ones. If they are just a re-release, well then I'll pass.

Chaos though, I'm only after the new stuff - raptors, obliterators, defilers, death wheels etc.

I would love to follow what goes on SG, and at one point I did, but it turned into an almost full time job...and I already have one of those! I quite enjoyed the time I was there, but I have since got into more just hovering and looking occasionally...it leaves me more time to play.

Sounds like my situation too, Tas.

From what I understand, they are just going to re-release the E40K 'Nids ?! Yes ... No ?!?
