Well, our local blackshirt did say that they're being primed by their district manager to expect two new races by the end of next year. One for Fantasy, one for 40k, and supposedly they're not going to be races we've seen before.
(Meaning no Chaos Dwarfs, and no Squats.)
Sweet. Wonder how much outrage there will be when they're revealed.
Tons.
It doesn't matter what they are. There will be much nerd rage.

What? No, ma, I'm fine! No, I said I'm fine! I just coughed up some dorito, I'm fine! No, you don't need to come down here! Geeeez, Ma!
I mean don't get me wrong, I loves me some GW fluff, I'm reading the Soul Drinkers omnibus right now, but I've always felt bothered by the fact that there's this massive galaxy out there and yet there are only ten or so races, a number of which are offfshoots of other races.
I hope that the new 40k race is whatever the Tyranids are running from.
The Tyranids are running from something?
Supposedly the Tyranids we've seen thus far are just scouts for a much larger force that is still mostly in another galaxy, but they apparently never finished consuming all the biomass in that galaxy because something chased them off.
Or at least, that's one of the theories.

We already have light/dark humans, light/dark space elves, bugs, Orc/plants, anime dudes, and terminators.
There are already enough super powerful dangerous galaxy ending races. There's already the Necrons and the Tyranids, and Chaos to a lesser extent. I like that the Tau are not some super ultra mega threat to the Imperium, they are tiny and not a direct threat to any of the other races. They should make more like this. For example another branch of humanity that has split from the Imperium, possibly allied with the Tau. Or something.
Or, they could make the next enemies similar to the Borg. Biological and technological, assimilating or just destroying whats in their path. Although this may be too much like the Tyranids.

There are enough human races already. What I'd like to see is something really alien, like the nids are, but not focussed on the NOM NOMing, just trying to get on with things while the galaxy goes to hell around them.

That's the mental image of the year, right there.

What else can you think up?
The nids are running from child support.
An entire race of those big M&M things from the commercials.
energy beings?
1 ship made it away eons ago, and now they're back
You're probably (sadly) correct.

Still probably wouldn't play 40k again, just sayin.
