Don’t see WFB battle coming back in the old world setting (as todays update shows), the “reasons” GW quoted for getting rid of it (it was too expensive for gamers to collect an army, the rules were to dense for GWs target audience (teenagers), and it took gamers too long to collect and paint up an army) still stand today (unless GW have decided to change their target audience). They “might” release the rules alone, but that would be unusual for GW (as their business is selling you the minis), but then things change and anything can happen.

But I can’t see GW starting doing whole armies of miniatures again from scratch, and they would get a bit of a backlash if they just start up producing the old minis again (as the change to AoS caused many to sell off their armies).
