    Just stumbled across this on my rumor roundup

    http://natfka.blogspot.dk/2014/06/skaven-beastmen-and-breton-armybooks.html

    Because of it being Faeit and all, I had "lets wait and see" feelings about it.
    But then I saw this on warseer

    GW has said earlier that the next Fantasy Edition will invalidate the way older books work..so......are we in for an earlier 9th than expected, or does this herald something else?

    To older veterans: Have anything like this happened in the past?

    Yea, the made the horrible idea to completely reboot WH in 5th edition,
    and every edition since this rumor keeps poping up. :rolleyes:

    so I should withdraw my ideas of withdrawn books means a new edition?

    (-Here should be a Withdrawnception joke but it was withdrawn-)

    So the books going back means nothing?

    I think it was that GW went with the
    "Dear stores, we want to take back old books and pay you full credit for them"
    and not
    "If they can be sold, sell em"

    approach that caught my attention.

    Might just be to get the paperbacks of the shelves.

    I think it's mostly this.
