It's been confirmed on the warhammer community page that it's Custodes, Sisters of Silence, and Assassins vs DG and a new subfaction called Agents of Bile on the ruins of Cadia. I'm interested to see where that leaves the Deathwatch, SoB, Necrons and Harlequins fighting.

Doubt SoB get their own focus in PA, despite the FB comment. Same with Harlies to be honest.

Necrons and Deathwatch perhaps get the new edition release box (if there's a new edition of course)? I think there was a rumour of that not long ago.

You know that War cow is going to make fantastic conversion fodder for Keepers of Slaanesh too! Eldar might even also have a go as a lot of the lower body is quite Eldar style; could easily be made into an awesome Avatar

Gorgeous Bile model. Hard to see how anyone can be that salty about it. fantastic update.

Where's the sister PA rules? Anywhere?

They have got nothing in PA so far. With GW flat out saying they will get claiming otherwise is about as sensible as flat earthers

So this was the "big reveal" they and planned for Adepticon.

Seems very low-key so far.

I hope I'm wrong.

That's not necessarily new info. We've known about multiple elemental devotees in the lore they've teased. You can tell based off the symbols the models have what "faction" they're devoted to. Like fantasy Eldar aspects

Yes, but what those 'aspects' are? I think they said it quickly, but I kinda missed it... Were they just the four classic Greek elements?

"The Lighting of a new fire"...no idea.

I think it's just the way Games Workshop likes to lay out reveals very thinly. There will be more coming more than likely.

They probably need to spread it out a little. To be fair to GW, many of us are going stir crazy with the social distancing. If we don't have the slower reveals then we won't have anything to look forward to I guess?

I'm liking the lion and the hammer elves are ok except for the goat head helmet. Those are a hard miss for me. I'll prob just get spear elf bits and change them out.

The face still looks awful as it looks nothing like how he is described. Though it is an easy fix.

Also "Agents of Bile"? They have a name (The Consortium).

So what on earth you were expecting that first 4(and not only just 4) did not satisfy?

Seems people are always expecting something earth shattering like multiple new editions or something for previews.

It's not even over yet...

I think Bile looks great, including his face when from other angles, he looks like a really horrible B******, villains don't need to look pretty, but his face has huge character. I'm a little disappointed the face seems to have been removed from his flesh coat, that was always one of the really creepy things about the old model.

In terms of releases, seems extremely low key at the moment, they'll surely come back around and show more 40k releases? However, there is another reveal next weekend.

I wonder if they have moved some of the reveals around due to not being able to sell and supply at the moment, in an attempt to keep the community engaged so they will buy again when they can actually manufacture and sell again (I'm aware this may be more of a UK specific issue, rather than a global issue).

It was part of it.


They did split it in two for today and April 4th.

I sincerely hope there'll be some more stuff for Blood Bowl, Necromunda, etc..

Zenith, Wind, Mountain, and River.

Is the final preview likely to be the Lion? Is that it for 40k?

If Sisters of Silence and the Assassinorum get new rules, Harlequins /have/ to get new rules. It'd be insane otherwise. There was a rumor about Harlequins not getting a new PA, but I'm pretty sure that rumor also said DW would not be getting a PA, so that would leave Necrons fighting themselves, which would be a bit silly. I'm not super sure that the SoB will get rules, but I'd be vicariously upset if the SoB didn't.

OH WOW!

That WarCry band is gorgeous!

So you think we're going to double back to AoS for more releases?

Actually loving the battle cattle.
Can’t stand the teclis model or mage but loving this.

The potential for a slaanesh conversion is just too good.

Well at least the cow aesthetic helps blend the elves and Slaanesh together. Old Keeper of secret bovine faces and the moontains can have a shared heritage, one just liked being milked more often.

Same here.

The one I assume is the leader is a nice throwback to Aekold Helbrass.

Love these Warcry guys. Definitely my favourite of the lot.

The big reveal is part two next saturday i think? My money is on the primaris bikers.

In terms of what we’re seeing, remember this is split in two, and we’re promised a surprise today.

I'm curious what these Agents of Bile are. I am disappointed that I have to wait longer for Engine War.

More than one 40K miniature reveal.

I kind of get it, the issue is they're showing some stuff that's pretty well previewed already (Bile) and the rest are dribs and drabs of a reveal. After getting edition reveals, full factions reveals, game changing stuff like mortarion etc. Showing 1-2 units from the same army over 4-5 reveals seems a bit... small in scope.

Called it page 1 or 2.

This doesn't justify the hype.

Though there is another preview slot next week. Perhaps that will be more interesting.
