Squats....Squats as in how they used to be? Or will they be Demiurg? Or something totally new, I mean still Dwarves in space, but worked out a bit different?

Yes like the olden days, with lots of big weapons and technical know how. Demiurge arn't squats, they are apparently reptilian in nature.

 On the GW message boards and various other sources. It was in relation to squats actually, but you know how GW reacts if you mention the S word. The question was, are demiurge squats to which the mods replied, no they were a different race and that they were reptilian deep space miners. Short yes, miners yes, squats no

Well...did you see the concept sketch?
It looked very squat to me...
But perhaps GW has now ignored that sketch...since it is a couple of years old now

Where abouts in the ultima segmentum is hive fleet leviathan, the map i've seen puts them south of Anargo but also alarmingly closer than the hive fleet on the eastern fringe

If you look at the map in Codex: Tyranids, Hive fleet Leviathan is actually coming up from under the galactic core. Hive fleet Behemoth and Kraken are both on the Eastern Fringe.

Then Anargo might have a problem, i have at my disposal an inquisitorial report of leviathan coming up in the core, solar, tempestus and ultima, and another stating it has avoided the ghost stars and detoured into the spiral arm, our spiral arm, not on the eastern fringe where kraken is currently having a field day but further in from the fringe . oooh exciting eh  |

Avoided the ghost stars and detoured into the spiral arm? As far as I know, the ghost stars are on the far side of the galaxy, outside the Imperium. Sounds like an impressive detour. We'll need to consider the source, and compare it with the sources that say otherwise, since GW is fond of contradictions. |

My sources are the necron codex for the ghost star bit, 40k 3rd Ed confirms sightings in ultima, solar and temestus and also the confermation your good self and kage provided that there is nid activity in the core and a significant presence it must be if it has wiped out the squat leagues  |

Just saying that's what GW said happened to the Squats... I didn't say that it was consistent! Of course it implies more about the 'vector' of Tyranids and a pre-galactic split, potentially... |
