warping it is, quite likely either warp stuff generically or pink/purple due to EC?
Well, rumor so far tend more torwards generic chaos but EC first show off as a finale?
isn't as unlikely i guess.
Is it too much wishful thinking to suggest that it is pink in the top half, going down to red in the bottom half, so Emperor's Children and World Eaters?

It would be nice but lines up with none of the rumour engine pictures. DG & Tsons get warpsmiths nor chosen, so logically neither with WE or EC. The models shown match more with a generic CSM book, so while the colouring and text is fairly heavily slaanesh feeling, my gut tells me it's black legion vs ulthwe here.
I think there's a very good chance that we see the generic CSM in the Chaos vs Eldar box painted up as Emperor's Children, but none of the actual images look remotely Slaaneshi at all, and they mesh up perfectly with existing rumours for generic CSM. As desperate as I am for a proper EC release, this isn't it.

GW love using vivid pinks and purples to paint mutated skin on generic CSM models (see e.g. their Black Legion Obliterators).
I wonder if GW will finally kick Emprah's Kiddies out of the generic Chaos Marine codex this time around. The reliable rumors suggest we'll get a World Eaters codex if I recall correctly, so there's no point in having them in there anymore. I think it would be a good sign getting a PDF to tide the final god specific legion over as that would suggest a release of a stand alone codex and, more importantly, models in the somewhat foreseeable future instead of sticking them in the Chaos Marin codex for another edition while World Eaters, Death Guard and Thousand Sons all have fun with their own codices and dedicated model lines.

The core SM codex is also literally the basic line for all the supplements.

I would think that if they were going to make dedicated books for World Eaters and Emperor's Children, they'd be full* Codices instead of supplements. Separate Codices like Thousand Sons would likely mean losing access to certain units, whereas Supplements would mean spelling out a bunch of restrictions and battlefield role changes. And yes, I get that they do this currently, but when the current book was published they weren't doing Supplements, yet.
*"Full" being a relative term.

Isn't it weird that you still can't buy him separately? It's not as if he's on some big combined sprue either. He's separate.
Same with the regular plastic Ork Warboss, you used to not able to buy him without the bundle with Nobs innit, now he's just gone for good on the online store. And funnily enough, so are the Warpsmith and Eldar Rangers.

To be fair, those are about to be replaced, so it makes sense for them to go. Wonder if the new Warpsmith has an option for a Power/Omnissian Axe. I'd hate to think that the new one is going to completely invalidate the old one.
And I even painted that one... which is rare for me!

It allready had happened if gw didn't decide to shoot it behind the legends shed.
Wanna bet they will force those that did play R&H into fielding marines.

We were talking about plastic models, you know? At least I was. Yeah, Forge World did a take on Lost and Damned, but that didn't give us plastic models which this rumor engine might actually point.
So yeah, sucks you lost your army, no doubt about that, but upcoming plastic models would still be different from what Forge World used to offer.

Meh. Depends if Lost and Damned get a token release and crammed into the Chaos Marine codex or if they get enough different units along with their own book.

i mean the success of TS and DG separation isn't something that GW can't argue against probably financially.
so maybee?
i just hope they won't flanderise WE even more than they already have

Just... push down, I think? The jaw is above the crossbeam, so you take the throat skin and drape it around the lower pole nicely and sew it up at the back.

Easiest option would be a codex supplement for Astra militarum.

The lower curved bar is what the skulls are resting on, it doesn't go through their heads. The skull on the right isn't fractured, that is just the zygtomatic bone looking a little pronounced probably because of the sculpt.
Are we due a chaos lord or is it the champion for the chosen?

Would GW even do that? I guess Genestealers got a variation of it, but unless something changed while I wasn't paying attention, GW doesn't want to change datasheets, so I should think they would be opposed to handing out instructions to change keywords, and possibly statlines and unit options across an entire codex. I imagine that it would be a halfhearted attempt if they did and you'd get true Lost and Damned units in the supplement and watered down, Imperial clone units in the Guard codex. That kind of stuff didn't go down well in the first Death Guard codex with the copy past Chaos Marine units.
