I don't know why they would be limited, but a part of me wants to pick up the kommandos and DKK asap.

Because I feel like if I wait a year, they will mysteriously vanish for no reason at all

GW's actions of the last few years have me paranoid; which is probably intentional

Yeah a Kill Team "reveal" that's the same box we have now but with less stuff ain't exactly awe inspiring

Launch box was always going to have more stuff.

Plus the "Recruit Edition" implies there's more...

Anyways, here's our next warzone!

Note that this is the Kill Team branded ones. I suspect they'll have the rules for the Veteran and Kommando specialist Killteams.

Kommandos have a unit entry in the codex with all the specialist bitz from the new box, so they're safe. No such guarantee for Krieg... yet.

T'au look a bit clunky. A bit chubby? But new models are always good.

And I love the sisters. So much better than the last release they got

It seems to be the existing Pathfinders with an addon sprue...which is what was called out by the one rumormonger.

Interesting to see the individual releases as heavily Kill Team branded. As the specialist games are usually in a different part of the store (and website) they may be missed by the more casual buyer. It's less of an issue for the Kommandos as they are 'advertised' in the codex but the Kreig have basically no presence in 40K right now (from a GW vs FW perspective).

Young Nuns Go For It!

That explains the clunkiness of the models

This is the big win. That rumour list was juicy, which we can now assume is entirely legit.

Yea looks like a sprue of new heads for plastic Pathfinders

Were did that came from? is not at War-Com.

Tau seem like a mix of kitbashed Fire Warriors, Pathfinders and new sprues.

Nuns look great.

Something to note is that it is entirely possible that these two boxes will each contain cards for the Specialist Killteams that are in the Octarius book, which is not present in the Recruit Edition set.

I guess it's time to start saving for Kasrkin...

And some new gadgets/rail rifle poses! Also seems to be at least one new set of legs.

More than heads, there’s new weapons and accessories too.

I took it down last time because the original author had it removed in a lot of places, I'm sure it's out there if you dig about. I think they were maybe reposted in the 9th ed rumours thread on here.

I find it strange that the pic doesn't show any of their drones. If they're on the sprue, surely they have rules.

It may be an entirely new kit after all then?

Would someone mind pm-ing a recap on those rumors? I had thought I’d screen capped it but apparently not /sadface

Drones might not be showcased as they're not getting upgrades?

Apparently the image was on Instagram.

What else is in that box??? What's the terrain?

We must know!!!!!!!!

It has to be a new kit for the pathfinders. Too many difference between the existing kit and new one that would justify just an extra sprue. Could be wrong, but seems like a new kit in the KT box.

It's still up in War-of-Sigmar, in the 4th page:

Thanks friend!

Oh man, like cool new stuff but I was really hoping that rumour list would be wrong a lot more. I am so not hyped for a lot of the stuff on the list, especially for CSM.

It was the one with Nids and Imps in Dec, not GSC and Custodes right? Damn, thats gonna be a busy month for me as a nids and imps player

I was trying to put my finger on what's different about those Sisters, other than no helmets.

No backpacks! I don't even think their armour is power armour. Two of them have auto-pistols.

Looks like just metal greaves and the rest is leather. Cut off some pistols and grenades and you've got Sisters of Sigmar too

Nope, that rumor list was the GSC+Custodes one.
