Let's hope they do the wolves more in Norse style than the Wolfy McWolf ones of recent times though.

In that case, with 30k Wolves, you're in for a treat:

Bring on the pics.

If the wolves are actually that plain, for lack of a better term, than I'm interested. Can't stand all their shaggy barbarian looking nature boy style.

I imagine that like Betrayal at Calth, the marines will be a generic set so both sides use the same plastic mold.

Wasn't the Captain General sent to Prospero?

Should be working for everyone now.

So...discuss!

Well, this seems to indicate that more Harlequin content may be coming.

And that is nothing if not amazingly incredible. Please, please let "black watchmen" be connected to the black library! I want Harlequin wraithbone constructs, or even mimes!

I replied to that post with "we've already seen the Eldrad sprue" to which the warhammer 40,000 facebook page replied "Are you a farseer?". The reply and my post was then deleted 12 minutes later.

I noticed they reposted the picture with no comments now.

I would welcome more Harlequins mini's. I would especially love for the clowns to get a HQ and be fleshed out more.

I thought Eldrad was already dead in the timeline?

I would prefer to see some Aspect Warriors make the transition to plastic. I would love to have some dynamic, plastic Striking Scorpions or Dark Reapers or, dare I dream, Warp Spiders

He died during the 13th Black Crusade; which effectively has been rolled back to minutes before midnight instead.

Sounds like a harlequin raid on the black library to me

but Demesnus is mentioned as a park on Ithraca in Honour to the Dead so (according to google) so not sure how that relates

So we get 2 new forces instead of updating you know SoB again. I really hope that the SOS are just testing the waters for SoB.

Though the 'good' guys might need 3 characters...

The board games definitely seem to be GW's way of gauging demand for new factions/models. DW:O sold well, now we're getting Codex: Deathwatch and Codex: Genestealer Cults. I'm hoping the same will be true for this game and SoB/Custodes.

Except codex and accompanying releases were decided and done when boardgame was released if they come this year so boardgame sales didn't affect decicion.

Actually they fixed a typo.

Harlequins are the followers of Cegoarach, who created the Black Library...why would they raid it?

I very much doubt that they're raiding a park on Ultramar.

Remember that humans and Eldar have different names for planets. Valedor to the Imperium was a Maiden World known as Duriel to the Eldar. I would be very surprised if Demesnus is not the name of a planet.

Mind you I'd laugh so much if some great weapon against Chaos was hidden in a park of all places.

Although it does sound much more like a place they're heading to than a weapon.

Ulthwé is raiding the library, and the Harlequins try to stop them? Some intra-Eldar fighting would be nice for a change, especially since craftworld and dark have been such BFF lately.

The Harlequins guard the Black Library (kind of). They wouldn't be raiding it, they protect it from raids.

Demesnus is the Eldar name for an imperial world/something.

IMperium and eldar name same worlds different names. so it could be something we know.

perhaps the harlequin are attempting to raid a inquisitorial library?


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

im going to laugh if magnus and ahriman are being chased by heresy era space wolves, or logan and the first company.

Really not sure where people are getting that "The Black Watchmen" equates to "Guardians of the Black Library".

Eldar talk in flowery language. They're not going to call the Deathwatch as "Deathwatch".

Ulthwe are doing something to implement a plan of, or to help, Cegorach. The Deathwatch are a potential obstacle.

Given the rumoured upcoming Deathwatch codex, the Deathwatch will likely come off rather well from the encounter even if the Eldar manage to succeed to some degree.

Atia has said its Deathwatch vs Eldar?

Yes.

This sounds flippin cool. So excited for them to play with the storyline a bit and introduce new content!

Given the size of the rumored Deathwatch release, and addition of Eldar stuff, will this be a set of mini-codices, or a single campaign book with rules for both?



Eldrad is getting a model, but will other Eldar stuff? And Cegorach, does that mean some more Harlequins?
