Well since the Black Lion formed the head, I think we are going to be waiting for the Ork Release to find out.

That Wraith thingie is big.  Hmmmm, would be nice if they give da Boyz a Stompa in the codex....I think that I am going to need some more Battlefoam to figure out how to carry my Stompa back and forth all the time.

I'm thinking of starting a iyanden all wraith 2500 point army to use as a allied detachment (if the new codex supplement is going to be considered a army). I'm really excited for the supplement!

2500 is a wee bit more than allied detachment usually, eh?

 Very true, what I meant to say is that I'll use it as a allied detachment and a fun theme/ fluff army haha.

from what i have read the supplement is rules for planet strike and other things

[The book] features new, never-before-seen artwork, full-colour miniatures galleries (including 360ยบ images in the digital version) packed with dozens of miniatures painted in the colours of Craftworld Iyanden, a hefty 32 pages of background about the Craftworld and its people, a detailed timeline of important events, colour schemes and iconography for the different Ghost Warrior houses and much more besides. If you're a hobbyist that loves to immerse yourself in the lore of Warhammer 40,000 then this book is definitely for you.

Codex: Iyanden also features a host of new rules which, when combined with the army list in Codex: Eldar, allow you to create a dedicated Iyanden-themed collection. Using the rules in Codex Iyanden allows you, for example, to take a Wraithknight as your Warlord. If that's not a fearsome prospect for your opponents to face then I don't know what is. There are also Iyanden-specific Warlord traits and the option to take a council of Spiritseers, plus three new battle missions and five scenarios to fight with your army. There are even stratagems for Cities of Death and Planetstrike for you to use on an unsuspecting enemy.

I hope that this is just the first one and they are planning one for all the major craftworlds. I want my Biel-tan one.

I read or saw that this is the "first supplement" of it's kind.  I'm not sure they'll do 2-4 for each army, but I do think most armies will get a "bonus book" in the short term.

Then again, if they're going to do a new 40k army book every other month, they're gonna need something to fill in the rest of the 4 years.

For the SM Chapters this would Explain the Influx of new Characters that have been rumoured for Ultramarines and the other First Founding Chapters.
