OK, this just in from FFG. The new big box game is HORUS HERESY, obviously a 40K-themed board game and I _think_ it may actually be a ridiculously produced edition of the old game of the same name, it's not really clear.
The bad news is that it's another $100 two player only game. That's a little disappointing for a FFG big box. The good news is that it looks and sounds awesome, and if it's the old GW game it should be really good. If it does well, maybe they'd do BATTLE FOR ARMAGEDDON and DOOM OF THE ELDAR too.
Overall, I think it's great news- I've been wanting more 40K board games, and here it is. The box looks awesome, and the pieces pictured look great. Slated for March 2010.
