I notice nobody is wishing for more Barnes&Noble exclusive board games.

**MajorWesJanson**

Those aren't bad, some are really cheap ways to get certain models, like combat arena

**mortar_crew**

Nothing wrong with these, but you can only get them at, well, you know...
Barnes&Noble.

Yep to all of that [I'd love to see Kurnothi but I don't think there is any sign of the yet].

Inquistion Killteam vs Squats or another unique xenos faction/sculpts [I'd rather not Necrons as they've had loads].

I really hope they tease/reveal a few things for the future and do the Slaanesh reveal etc at New Year.

Interested to see what's coming - especially the Vampire and Seraphon underworlds warbands.

**H.B.M.C.**

Maybe they'll just reveal what the days of X-Mas rumour engine stuff is?

**Danny76**

I’d think it’s that yeah.

**warboss**

Is a Christmas reveal a tradition with GW of late? Or is this a new thread for an old topic like the rumor engine reveals?

**Danny76**

Last years are hard to go by, as I wonder if that Nob was meant to be sooner for release but production schedule changes and all..

There was one last year.

**Danny76**

But no indication from them that they are doing one this year or has there?

**jaredb**

The Broken Realms book teased heavily the influence of Soulblight, I can't imagine that is too far away.

I could see the Legions of Nagash book getting a re-do when that comes as well, especially as Nagash has been updated recently in the OBR Book.

I remember they revealed gloomspite gits as the preview a couple of years ago, and that was really cool.

Yeah, they’ve said they are.

Even though James Workshop does allow us to have Christmas Day off, we’ll still be showing off some new models on the big day. We’ll have a glimpse of some of the incredible miniatures that 2021 has in store – make sure that you don’t miss it!

They'll show off the Plastic Thunderhawk as the Angel sitting on top of the tree...Although a reincarnated Sanguinus on top of the tree would be just as good

Ah ok good.
I missed that as I was taken in by the video too much

**SamusDrake**

Will it be Squigs or Jackel Alphas? Will it be Slaanesh or Kill Team?

Will it be Stormcasts? Heretic Space Marines?

You'll have to wait and see!

OOOOOOOHHHHH Its Squigs! It Squigs! We all hope its Squigs! Its Squigs!

**Arbitrator**

Hope:

Inquisition for Kill-Team and/or 40k.
Cities of Sigmar/Devoted of Sigmar for AoS.
Soulblight/some sort of Death army for AoS.

Expectation:

Inquisition for Kill-Team.
Ecclesiarchy units for Sisters/codex.
Warhammer Quest, Vampire Hunters vs Death.
OR
Witch Hunter and Death-something for War Cry.
Lizardmen Underworlds full warband reveal.

Those usually get revealed at that one Toy Faire around March right?

This would be too much, my wallet would be whimpering in fear.

To be fair Blitz Bowl is a fantastic game, definitely one of the best GW has put out in a long time.

Some of them have been very appealling but most of them aren't available in the UK. Which is a shame because I'd really fancy a copy of Crypt Hunters and the Necron labyrinth game.

**ottokill**

Some Christmas themed harlequins would be appreciated. Heck, anything harlequin would be nice.

**Sasori**

My guess from the other thread is the official reveal of the Technomancer, some more Slaanesh and Probably Lelith.

**MajorWesJanson**

Maybe a box set of Inquisitor and retinue, some scions, and deathwatch vs necron tecnomancer, flayed ones and some other necron models.

**Kirasu**

Probably an already extremely minor faction turned into 2-3 sub factions each with their own 30$ army book.

**Sabotage!**

That would be a pretty cool boxed set if you ask me.

Mentally ready for extreme dissapointment

How extreme could one's disappointment be over something like a reveal stream? Are you expecting them to announce that James Workshop has died from covid and he's bequeathed everything to Jeremy Clarkson, who's going to rename the company "Sprouts Warehouse" in order to focus entirely on the production of sprouts and onions, thus making this the last batch reveals ever? Yes, that would be disappointing in the extreme, but I don't think the situation could possibly be that bad tbh.

Dakka has always people unhappy about reveals. Especially 40k crowd has people who go unhappy if every release isn't 40k. How dare other games take 40k　releases away!

Best part of releases is laughing at the whining

**Oguhmek**

Mordheim 2021 would be an awesome first.

An Inquisitor with retinue box + Codex Inquisition would be a great second.

Updated Ecclesiarchal units (preachers, missionaries, frateris militia etc) would be a good third.

**puma713**

Going to be that Death Guard has been pushed to mid-year 2021.

Blitz Bowl is solid.
