Some of those dates seem to have been advanced from the forcecast at the Specialist games website?
I'm sure Chaos wasnt for about a year yet, but you have now listed there...now!
Is this a typo or great news, significant in that its an advancement of the timeline? That bodes well!

This is something that puzzles me a bit. The end of the playlist schedule and the end of the publication/mini release schedule are years apart. What will be discussed in the gap?

Let me be clear. The list I posted is the dates Jevis would like to have at least started working on the lists.
With the assignment of Champions, Jervis is thinking we might be able to get stuff doneby working together.
As for this list of playlists and the mini ranges, there is no tie.
Jervis has not make any commitment to dates for "release" at all. I think there is a few factors at play here. Not the least of which is the over all interest a list gets and the speed it is worked on.
Look at the work Pixelgeek did on his Gargant list. He moved it along quite well. Clearly he has increased the odds it will come out sooner then later.
But my point was, Jervis has said on many posts there will be no unit added to a list that a mini does not come out for ir by SG/GW. That is why the CI was dropped from the IG list. He ran out of budget/room for it in the release. He was clear about that.
So if Sisters will be worked on, then Sisters will be a mini range. Now when that will happen? Could be months, or even a couple of Years away. It is just there is hope.

So not as happy as your earlier post, but still some incentive to get the lists done and playtested I guess eh?
The Policy of only putting units on the list that will be released as minis makes good sence. I'd do the same thing. The 'counts as' rules covers most things I suppose but it also leave us hobbyists some room to fit all the old cool stuff in with their special attributes too!

Official minis are nice but proxies are just as much fun.

But the fun of real minis is the whole WYSIWYG thing. 
But until they come out, you are right. And when they come out...
Another army for dafrca.

No plan survives contact with the enemy...or GW price hikes!

Hi!
In a good sense the staggered SG releases is good for the pocketbook, since it gives us a breather. Hopefully there will still BE a release schedule 5 years from now.

I'm pretty sure those are just the playtest lists and not the actual miniatures ranges.
