I really wish they wouldn’t drag this stuff out. The teasers are obvious. I’d prefer they showcase it and own it. Tease things that are a ways out & not obvious.

The Death Guard was dragging stuff out, with the teases from March to October. This is a fun little thing that, if anything, tells me we'll see the full reveal sooner rather than later. I've been waiting for longer than a decade for this, I can wait a couple weeks more, and GW giving it some pomp and circumstance with a dash of humour helps.

This is my guess: the right arm of the forbidden one.

In the some of the new artwork from the Blood Angels Codex there's a scene where Primaris fight against what looks like possessed Chaos Marines with big bat-like wings. I know it's just artwork but the one foot looks like a dead match.

 

Top right, fighting the Inceptors.

Does this mean possessed get access to (FLY) keyword again? :)

I hope Posessed get some new options and abilities, a flamer attack like they had in DoW would be super awesome.

Looking at the picture again, I don't see any weapon but lightning claws which makes me thing it isn't possessed but warp talons or a new unit.

Edit: Another options is maybe a new unit of possessed kind of like a counter-primaris.

The best thing that could happen to possessed (and mutilators, obliterators, and everything else with the DAEMON keyword in Codex:CSM) would be to pick up the God-specific abilities that Daemons get, for free. Maybe obliterators would have to go up a bit because 2+ 4++ 3w, but then if they do that they give up endless cacophonies. Overall though, It'd really make them more viable.


Well would you look at the time, it's zombie o'clock!

What makes me laugh about the daemon engine is just the completely unthreatening nature of the daemon.

 

I'd like to think the majority of lesser daemon all act like this, saying and doing things completely mundane while spouting crap like "DOES THIS MAKE YOU GO INSANE, MORTAL? I BET IT DOES. I'M SUCH A SCARY DAEMON!"

Yeah, the daemon possessing the rumour engine is definitely a lesser daemon puffing itself up to scare people! :D

 

I wonder what today's reveal will be. We've seen a claw, backpack and foot already... Helm? Chest?
