The Daemon Engine – 28th February, 2019

THIS IS ALMOST IT, MORTAL! MY PLANS ARE CLOSE TO BEARING FRUIT. ALL I NEED IS FOR YOU TO LOOK AT THIS SNEAKY PEEK OF AN UPCOMING MODEL…

CAN YOU GUESS WHAT IT IS? IT MATTERS NOT – IT IS TOO LATE FOR YOU TO SAVE YOURSELF! THAT BEING SAID, IT WOULD AMUSE ME TO SEE YOU TRY ON THE WARHAMMER 40,000 AND WARHAMMER AGE OF SIGMAR FACEBOOK PAGES.

 

------------

 

im gonna guess its a alternate build for the venom crawler?

Is that a...defiler???

[plaguedroneofblight]

Alternate build, woo!

 

 

[DeadFingers]

Quite similar to the Venomcrawler's back legs, but not the same. So it's either the multi-part version of it, just like the Bloat Drones, or another spidery thing. For now I'm voting for the former.

[Triszin]

so the alt Build is these legs + that Mounted gun.

 

maybe its like a Dune crawler with cockpit?

[Excessus]

...and all I can think of is:

 

[Panzer]

Damn I'm really looking forward to this whole release.

[Marshal Loss]

Awesome. I haven't been this excited about CSM since the glory days of 3.5. What a cracking return to form by GW

[Frostglaive]

Looks like a Venomcrawler variant. Could go with the mounted gun we saw earlier

[BitterSilence]

And now the warpsmith need a Aura to Buff deamonmaschines.

[Triszin]

you know what I realized....

in this image. we see the "pintle" mount location for that mounted gun in the rumored image....

 

ahh mer gawd.

 

I think i see how the alt build will look

 

look at the Large carapace section, specifically the rear. look at the bottom with the servo skull and gun.

 

right

 

you see the  2 curvatures touching. well rotate the CARAPACE, so that the big curvature goes over the big leg joint and then the small curvature will sit over the small leg joint. Which would then put the pintle mount point on the top of the venom crawler.

Genuinely looking forward to this release, fingers crossed they give the defiler some much needed love. But i am really excited to see this venomcrawler and its variant, new models to collect skulls for KHORNE!!!

Please explain, I don't see it.

look at the carapace, now look at teh 8 pointed star (the one on the large carapace with the mouth at the center).

 

look at the Hands, 9 O'clock and 10 O'clock.

 

follow 9:30 o'clock, right under the SPiked gaurd you see a "cylinder with a black hole" thats the mounting point for the gun

But the gun was mounted on the spine, not the main body. Also if that was the mounting point for the gun, it'd either shoot upwards or right on its own face.

theres so many im getting confused.

but this is what I thought, when i was confused.

[Mendi Warrior]

Alternate venomcrawler or another daemon engine, I would not be surprised to see more than one as the clues we are getting point to a rather daemon heavy release

Damn, this will hurt ... this will really hurt ...

Doesn't change the fact it's mounted on the spine, not the main body.

There are also some details to be seen that are missing on the main body where the hole is.

ya. Im still assuming its the same kit. other wise i want an army of mini venom crawler bikes !

[DeadFingers]

For what it's worth, they had something to say about the Venomcrawler comments on Facebook. Apply salt with extreme prejudice.

 

[RapatoR]

Ok, NOW its getting suspicios. Two days ago, we got flaming skull that obviously seemed to belong to already existing rumor engine pic. Then we got autocannon that also obviously seemed to belong the already revealed autocannon... Until it was not. Now we get a leg that OBVIOUSLY seems to be a part of Venomrawler or variant thereof. It might sound paranoid, but they might be misleading us...

 

Edit: And another thing I noticed looking at the picture above: Why is there a Baleflamer with handle and trigger on the supposed Venomcrawler variant? Surely a daemon doesn't need hands to activate it?

lol, this CSM release is huge. (this is another kit?)

 

a full line revamp, wonder if these beasties will have deamonkin and dark mech keywords.

[balordazul]

This one keeps leaving me with questions.  We are starting to get into a possible overlap with so many daemon engines.  I'm guess it must be for DA and it is riding a thunder hawk with a new Dante model rocking a air guitar.  

 

They really need to give us the release details.

It could be the community people being cheeky about the fact that we've seen one Venomcrawler but not this other Venomcrawler that isn't in Shadowspear. Iunno. For now I'm keeping my skepticism.
