Am I right that it doesn't look like Khador are getting a new character jack in their forces of book?
I recently got the Legion Forces book - I really like it - I realised that it has all our models in it that are currently released, which is pretty good. I understand that the Cygnar and Menoth ones didn't have Trenchers or Exemplars in, and that they were being held back for the Theme books. I know that PP have said that they are changing how they do the books, but they look like they have got things together to put out 4 units, 3 solos for retribution in June. That's pretty substantial set of releases. (Along side 2 casters and a jack - Ret get 10 new things.) Mainly really pretty things too.
Anyway - I'm pretty excited to see how much stuff PP put out for each of the factions - its kind of cool it isn't symmetrical.
What would you like to see coming in the theme books (if we are getting theme books still?)

I like the core theme books so far. I love to look at the artwork and see a history and culture of a faction...however, with the rumor that they will no longer be including rules for new released models in the books and buying a book for just one theme does not do a whole lot for me and I will probably not be making those purchases. I am buying the first faction books that have the majority of the models for the faction (not all, fyi, only what is included in the included themes).
If the new theme books had some fluff (i.e., character stories, not just history), new model releases and rules, galleries (which they may have), I would be more inclined to pick one up.

The reason of not wanting the rules to release until after CID and for CID to conclude around the time of model release - means they can't print the rules in a book that takes several months to produce, convinced me that they are right. The Legion book has loads of really amazing art in it. I'll probably grab the ones for the other factions I play. I'm a bit tempted to cut the spine off the book and frame some of the art its really nice. Cutting the spine off a book is a crime I can't bring myself to commit though.
