Already announced Though to be fair, I’m guessing you knew that already, and are instead hoping for more info on them
Most definitely. Make Hellforged Fellblades good again damnit gw!
Was the Fellblade ever good though?
Honest question, because i never really heard anything overly positive about it even in 7th. Then again you never really heard anything negative about it either then.
It wasn't meta breaking, but taking one didn't gimp your army due to an extraordinarily over inflated points cost like now. It was never worth more than two baneblades, which is the current price. I'm not asking for OP just good.
Personal predictions are.. plastic Catachans, Primaris bikers, Titanicus stuff, More aelf stuff, maybe 9th edition of 40k and maaaaaaaybe some more Aeronautica teasing / previewing to make up for schedule slip.

This all seems about right aside from the Catachans, my gut tells me when we get new Guard, they are gonna be trenchcoated and more along the Death Korps/Valhallan/Steel Legion feel
Well, there was also the Cyanide Games slip last year that they'd make a new Edition of the computer game Blood Bowl to coincide with a new GW Edition of Blood Bowl.
Spoiler:
Not sure if that is still a thing, but that seems to be the one "new edition / new specialist game" rumour that would have some minimal substance to it.

Unlikely. Even xenos expansion is still year or two ahead to AT and epic won't come before that.
No point putting unrealistic expecations. That's what results in the sweet whining of last week. Then again besides great preview all that whining was awesome so hoping lots more of that Always funny to see self caused whining.

Agreed, the people complaining seem to have a very selective perception of reality, given the global pandemic going on, maybe GW is rationing the reveals.

The jury is very much still on that slip up given it was roughly translated from French. Not saying it won't happen mind. The comment could just as easily refer to the 2016 Edition as BB2 isn't based on that and BB3 could just be bringing it in line with what GW have added in since the relaunch.
I’d love to see some new Khorne Berzerkers, not that I think they’re coming at all, but to me they are one of the plastic kits that needs replacing almost as much as finecast kits. Excited to see what comes out of this reveal.
My personal guess:
- new Primaris stuff (what we've already seen in some low quality pics, so bikes, etc)
- new and allegedly last PA book with a Necrons focus (together with Deathwatch, Sisters of Battle, Harlequins and a reprint of Inquisition rules from WD)
- new stuff for 30K
- new stuff for Necromunda
- new stuff for Aeronautica Imperialis or Bloodbowl
- new army for AoS (giants?)
Regarding the SG reveals, could they reveal the House of Chains plastic boxed set? New Orlock options, I suspect actual bikers for them given they seem to be leaning hard on the Hells Angel aspect
The line they used was ' Every 10 minutes or so'. That could mean every 12, every 13, every 11, every 9., etc. It's vague enough to say 'we're doing them at roughly this speed, technology/calls/connections willing' but not a hard 'every 10mins they have to show something new, on the dot, no wiggle room.

That’s certainly possible. Though given House of Escher (can’t remember its proper monicker at the moment) isn’t out, I suspect something more like Special Hired Guns, as we’ve not had FW’s reveals yet?

Though last time they said every 15 minutes. So to vary the wording does lend something to it.
Between 6-9 reveals.
I’m hoping nothing gets revealed early. I’ll be holding off forums etc.
something quite nice about watching it properly.
It was great to see the Lion, but I watched the whole thing knowing he was coming. So I think this time I’ll go in blind either way.
Need something to do on all these days trapped in

Motorbikes in Necro? Doubt.
I mean, did anyone expect Ambots, or Ogryn slaves, or Arachno harnesses, seems like things are getting weirder in the Underhive and some skilled bikers who can rapid response for the gang seems thematic, given Orlocks theme.
I expect to see the first look at the sons of behemat titans this time. Even though we had a big Lumineth reveal las week.
Some actual houses or ruined structures to go with Warcry/AoS would be really cool, and kind of in line with their effort to bring life to the various realms of the setting.
For 40k I think we might see a ridiculously OP Lion el Johnson return, just to be nerfed really hard with 9th edition in a couple of months. Classic GW.

I dare to dream... The return of Epic 40,000 would be... Epic! HAHA.
At the moment I'm completely disenchanted with W40K. I could (and have) ranted for hours about what's upsetting me with the game, the narrative, GW, etc., but that's another thread. Epic could definitely be what brings me back. Fingers crossed. I want to believe.
