They need a range update, but they need a rules update more - any hint

This is interesting. Unless GW has seen sense and decided to replace
the Battlesuits already (unlikely), this presumably means new
units/special weapon troopers rather than updates to existing models.
Then again it could be nothing more than a new special character. This
may be a tie-in with FW's Taros campaign.

The C'Tan Dragon was supposed to be released a couple of years ago
(around the time the Tau got Pathfinders with pulse rifles) but never
was - I've always presumed because the Necrons were a flop. That's
probably all this will be - a long-delayed release of a model that's
been finished for years.

I wouldn't want to be the one having to convert it (or use the
Gargoyle models, come to that)...
