That gun beside it though… is that some funky asymmetrically placed unique weapon, or is it the barrel of a LRBT that's just out of sight behind the truck?

If it looks like the artwork in the video it would propably be a huge success as IG and Ork players will buy it too.

This is probably the worst time of the year for it to come out for me, will have to see if I can squeez £30 out somewhere. But damn that was quite the trailer.

My Tyranid friend is freaking out lol. Have mercy GW and release Kroot or a new Xenos. If the GSC gets a release you can do a cool Predator theme for a soft kroot merc (hunters) reboot.

Tau definitely need a Codex: Xenos with plastic Kroot hounds/krootox aswell as atleast 1 box each for a few different races within the Tau Empire to fill out different roles.

Or we could just do away with the Kroot already and end their suffering as something that GW can't seem to get right.
But back on topic of the Genestealer Cults..
The previewed vehicle is very much looking like a local pattern riot control vehicle, though a bit miffed about the side-mounted autocannon. The heavy stubber up top is fine though.

I get a feeling there's going to be a distinct lack of plasma gun toting, super regenerating hybrids, on hover boards this time around Hopefully any psykers will have access to malefic powers to get a little bit of the old cult flavour.

This teaser was awesome. It finally pushed me over the edge and made me buy Deathwatch Overkill to start a Genestealer Cult (with the really nice DW models as an awesome bonus). The hypnotic power of the Genestealers seems to be working excellently. And I had finally managed to save up some money... Now I am poor again. Thanks GW.

Going by the Overkill miniatures and the vehicle shown in the trailer - pretending GW is making no compromises and the Cult will get a full range of multi-part kits - the upcoming release could look like this (well, best case, and no further surprises)
- 1st / 2nd Generation Hybrids kit
- 3rd / 4th Gen kit
- Aberrants kit
- New Genestealers kit (1st Edition style, no tabs at feet so they will fit onto 32mm bases)
- An HQ box, reusing the Overkill character sprue / or a Clampack for each character
- Vehicle
Also
- Codex
- Limited Edition Codex
- Painting Guide
- Cards
Shops are going to get the order list tomorrow - at least for the first week

The trailer itself is bloody fantastic!
Looks like we're getting an APC kinda' dealio but I'm holding back judgement until I see what the standalone kits are going to be like from the Overkill boxed set.
I've got so much pinned on this release! I hope they handle the rules well, I really would like a couple viable ways of running them and not just have to spam one particular unit to remain relevant competitively!

My stash of overkill boxes now have a use atlast
Those vehicles do look amazing though.
Slightly interested in transport capacity of it as currently units are 12/16 for basic hybrids.
Hoping it's not gimped by like 6 transport as per razorbacks and clown cars.

Yes, their own psychic powers could help them quite alot. It would also be good if GW will bring back rules like Hypnotic Gaze and Implant Attack as these were helpfull in battle, fitting fluff-wise and adding a welcome dose of tension to the games.

The Limo was from the perspective of a cult that had already taken control, or at least already controlled the nobility/upper echelons, this range is going to, from the looks of it, be about an uprising of the lower classes and take and expand on the mining-style aesthetic, hence the utility vehicles converted to armoured cars.

Looks like they will gain access to Taurox. Would have liked a mining machine to keep in theme.. still better than a silly limo.
lets hope with recut kits they fixed the imporable 'larger' neck openings on some suits for the hybrid nonsense... should just be 1 standard suit

So what is the guess that will be the collector's edition? 6 tokens, what kind of cards? The ones the IG/AM have like Deathwatch did or something else?
How do you think GW will make the collector's edition since it will go what $230 Canadian?.
