New player here. Players in my basement meta have mentioned to me that CoC is getting a new caster sometime soon, but I can't find any info on this. I've checked the PP release schedule, and don't see anything CoC-related slated for release through this July.
Where might they have gotten this information? Has there been any talk of when we're getting a Command book? Will our limited faction even get one?

That rumor has been around forever. It stems from a card game PP released years ago. They featured a lightning themed warcasters that did not exist as a model. This, combined with the electric theme of the PRime Conflux, that helps out our one electric jack...
They claimed there will be limited released in the future to go along with our themes. But due to internal politics, it will most likely be 1+years. Plus, who knows how much effort they will actually put into designing it

Supposedly next year we'll be getting a combined theme/command book which has some new models in it. No word on when exactly or what models or anything else really.

I am relieved to hear we're at least getting a book at SOME point! Thanks for the replies.

We know we are getting a book, a hybrid theme/command book(like Mercs, Minions and Grymkin). We've been told that there are new models in it. We've been told there were some number of models(usually 6 or 8 depending on who is talking) playtested but not included in our last book. We've seen completed art work for a warcaster, Eminent Configurator Orion.
The plan seems to have been for the initial wave of command books to end, roughly, around Lock and Load and then the first wave of theme force books would begin. PP's "schedule" has been roughly 1 book per month. The Grymkin have a near monopoly on July and August releases, so theme force book wave begins August/September.
Theme force book wave will likely begin w/ Cygnar(already seen some artwork spoilers). Khador seems like an early contender as well(common-ish discussion on/excitement for MOW theme force).
Convergence is feeling early 2018-ish(Feb) to me, though later would not be shocking.

I believe we are the only Faction (maybe Grymkin too) that are getting a combined Theme/Command book. Sadly Mercs and Minions are only supposed to get Theme Books.

So Command books have artwork, lore, and all model entries (including new models)? Theme books have all the themes at the time of printing? And we're getting a combined book because our # of models are so few?

Command Books have the Casters, Battlegroup models, Battle Engines, and a few units and solos. I believe they all have two themes.
Theme Books are centered around a sub-faction: known examples are Trenchers, Man-Wars, Northkin. They will have models specific to that sub-faction and presumably one theme force related to that faction
