WarCom Article.

It's looking as if the next Kill Team box is set in the Nachmund Gauntlet, following on from Chalnath and Octarius. There isn't much more information beyond this initial announcement, but it's nice to see them re-visiting the region.

Genestealer Cultists versus Traitor Guard, maybe?

GSC just got a box so my guess is at least one imperial faction

Dug up the rumour from the Eldar Discord as well.

Please let it be harlequins, please let let it be harlequins….

New GSC Codex immediately followed by a brand-new GSC unit in Kill Team that wasn't in the Codex seems plausible.

If they did Eldar v Chaos then thats 2 successive Eldar v Chaos boxes

If they keep the Dawn of War style fighting on Vigilus could be Eldar v Imperium

Rumours say Corsairs, against a Chaos kill team would be the obvious move but pretty much everyone is fighting in the Nachmund Gauntlet so really its anyones guess.

[Brother Dallo]

I wonder what the terrain will be? Presumably it will reuse existing stuff. Deathworld forest or sector Mechanicus seem like plausible options.

There were some chaos bits in the rumour engine that weren't in the new box. Maybe they might continue the theme of Eldar v Chaos?

Possible! Maybe that's where the unknown thunderhammer is from.

[sitnam]

Maybe corsairs vs traitor guard/cultists? The upcoming chaos release is rumored to really expand the mortals in the CSM codex, and some elite traitor guard could make an interesting kill team.

I would of said Chosen before the box reveal

[Dark Shepherd]

Itd be the first time they did the same factions 2 boxes in a row or would it?

New terrain would definitely help it move units

Happened in AoS with Slaanesh's kids. The new Hedonites of Slaanesh Battletome came out, then a campaign book added the two barely a month later. 

 

Edit: Oh yeah and the Sisters Novitiate.

I like the idea of a Traitor Guard Kill Team, with a CSM present to whip the mortals into shape, like a Chaos version of a runtherd

[TrawlingCleaner]

The quins will come sometime next year, so my guess is that it'll be corsairs Vs cultist of some form (hopefully multi-part traitor guardsmen). Currently the only cultists you can buy are the Blackstone fortress ones, they only come in squads of 7

This is what I was referring to.

That would be a great callback to the old Lost and the Damned/Tyrants Legion stuff.

Better stop now before I get my hopes up lol

It was 4 months actually and it was following a decent narrative that had been building. Can you imagine a book series developing narrative?! About time the 40k team started learning

I'm going to go against the flow here and guess... Primaris Scouts vs Eldar Corsairs

 

Wake The Dead was on Vigilus and didn't the Spiritseer run off saying he'd get revenge on the Ultramarines?

[Doghouse]

I'd be happy to see Corsairs.

[Shinespider]

I'm really interested in what Corsairs would look like - presumably they're going to be more creative this time than "We put wings on guardians."

[Reinhard]

Corsairs vs Primaris scouts

[Triszin]

corsairs vs chaos cultists

[Slave to Darkness]

Harlequins/Corsairs gimme SQUATS!!!!!!!

 

 

Another Chaos vs Eldar box might work, drop more new stuff in killteam and dont release it for ages, people will buy killteam to add to their new chosen and whatnot from the other box, would push sales of killteam a bit I guess.

[Reclusiarch Krieg]

Corsairs / Harlequins / Rangers, I'll take any (and all if they're all released!) vs Black Templar Primaris Neophytes :>
