Now that it looks like DE, I want to point out another similarity in Rumour Engines. The wave can be bigger than we think.

 

Interesting call. I think it still looks a bit coarse compared to the wych weapon. Has those odd little stumps below the head and looks a bit crooked. Gonna stick with AoS Destruction for this one.

Most likely but WHAT IF. Like harpoon from the Vect's Dais of Destruction.

[Sandlemad]

So this is probably something for AoS (destruction or undead) but it's of a piece with other very scrappy bits of kit, like the barbed spearhead above. What about new Necromunda Cawdor stuff? This looks plastic and while it's low-tech it's not that far from their junkyard theme. There's a lot of bent nails sticking out, which we see on the current plastic Cawdor gang. Maybe these are used by whatever they get for their plastic expansion box.

 

Or, hear me out, Scavvies? They had a chap with a harpoon launcher. We don't know much concrete stuff for Necromunda past the Van Saar book and as much as we'd presume next year would have Cawdor and Delaque, we don't know that for sure.

Not just spearhead (which now is obviously not DE) but this club also.

[Jukkiz]

could this be Ogres too?

I love how you have all been taken in by such an obvious misdirection.

 

Sure, Slaanesh will be getting AoS figures, but we already know Death Guard is coming so that's not news. So why imply it? Look a little closer...

 

"Decay" sounds like "DK", D is the 4th letter of the alphabet and K is the 11th.  4+11=15, the 15th Legion is the Thousand Sons. This will be an announcement of their codex coming in February.

Wake up, sheeple!

That is some damn fine mental gymnastics

[Borgias]

Immediately report to your nearest commissar !

[MegaVolt87]

That pointy stick and club could be from an ork runtherd (?) guy, so new grots and associated units for 40k orks? 

[Triszin]

ghouls and vampires are likely the big reveal imho.

[Hellex_The_Thanatar]

Still awaiting an ork boi twist to the decadence.


Truly we would be fit to be indulging in new sculpts!

When you think about it, Orks are pretty decadent. Always wanting the biggest shoota, the fastest fighta, the choppiest choppa, the shiniest teef. Maybe all those purple orks we cant see are gathering for Slaanesh

Huh the new preview pictures seems to suggest Dark Mechanicum!??

[Xenith]

Mutated Machina Opus? Very interesting. 

[Marshal Loss]

At the sight of anything that can be remotely construed as a speaker, I of course think ECCCCCCCC. This is an intriguing one though! Dark Mech would be nice...

DarkMech is the one thing that'd get me on a hype level equal to Emperor's Children or World Eaters.

 

Bring it on.

[WrathOfTheLion]

Dark mech would be very cool.

Some postulated that a proper release was why Dark Mech weren't in HH book 9. It would be quite interesting if they were right.

[General Strike]

If you look at the bottom of the new picture, there is a chainsword outline. Do AdMech use chainswords?

Chaos Knights do. 

[Freakshow668]

It could just be something new for Chaos Knights.

[01RTB01]

There looks to be banner/ cloak with cloth as well as the bottom of a marine backpack outlet...

Unpopular opinion: Dark mechanicus is such a niche faction, GW better not waste time with it. Flesh out regular mechanicus and update other factions to ninth edition first!

Couldn’t agree more. Several factions need a lot of love, being stuck with bad 20 year old, or more, sculpts.

I don't see why they need be exclusive. Adding a new faction doesn't preclude faction updates, and honestly regular AdMech got one of the bigger updates this year, I don't think they are in dire need of fleshing out

I'd prefer not to see DarkMech either, but that's because I feel it should be rolled into a LATD release.
