It looks similar to that in the sense that it’s an ammo belt.

Eyup, only because it's a belt, and not because details are nearly identical, and pretty unlike all other SM examples, or anything

Though, while I picked Cypher's gun because ammo on it is more pointier than other bolter belts, something bothers me - bolts are usually nearly cylindrical with round tip and wide bottom. This might actually not be a bolter at all but some sort of heavy stubber because narrowing ammo and belt look pretty close to CSM one:

Also looks similar to a GSC heavy stubber or an ork heavy shoota (both codexes are getting releases, and GSC are known to be getting some more units).





I guess we're looking at a lot of different things it could be.

The details aren’t nearly identical at all? Cyphers is just a solid leather strap, while the rumour engine one has a much more open structure. Apart from both being belts holding bullets, the details are very different.

That ammo belt could be Delaque related. The old models did have ammo bandoliers and belts around their coats.

Yep I'm guessing Necromunda as well.

Talon of Horus?

LordShaft.

AoS peasant?

And another one
Looks like AoS, could be free people

Oh oh OH OOHHH! If it's Freeguild it looks like they'll keep the aesthetics of the archers which i am so 1000% for and very excited right now can't sentence properly

Could also be LotR.....

Better be glad that it's no pork, as that would mean that the mini shown ist roughly 1 to 3 months or longer away

It's Santa Sigmar for a Christmas AoS release

That be an Inquisitor or something from the Blackstone Fortress game

Greatcoat Orks!

This is a VERY exciting pic.

I mean, I'm all worked up for all kinds of potential stuff- rogue traders, inquisitors, free-peoples from AoS or LotR...

but really we all know its gonna be a sigmarine of some sort.

I'm gonna say something out there - Fabius Bile.

Witch Hunter from the re-release of Mordheim ?

First thing that came to mind was a Delaque coat with a belt around the waist.

I can't see how since they always say "come to our 40K or AoS Facebook pages". Unless they want us to start advertising LotR on those sites.

Well, they’ve teased Specialist Games stuff in the past. And whilst definitely fantasy of some kind, I don’t feel we can entirely rule out LotR.

Really hope it’s Free Peoples though. Much as I think Stormcast are cool, Free Peoples are the ones that inspire me, for the same reason as Guard do when compared to Astartes.

It’s one thing to stand firm when your a genetically engineered or magically reforged demigod. It’s quite another when you’re just Bob, with barely enough training to show you which end of the Lasgun or Pointy Stick goes toward the enemy.

They sorely need it as well. Bring in the Ironweld, Free Peoples and Collegiate Arcane and that into a single Battletome. I feel we need a proper hodgepodge Mortal list, spesh as we’ll be getting Darkoath, their Chaotic (but differently evil from regular Chaos( counterpart.

Let the mortals have their time to shine. Show us the little men and women fighting against the horrors. After all. If they don’t, all is lost.

This would also be my guess. Looks very Inquisitorial to me.

I'd guess AoS. Could even be a new elf.

I'm also leaning towards LotR as well

It is. Go look at the artwork of the Rogue Trader at the end of the Blackstone Fortress teaser trailer. It's matches his belt exactly.

Yup. It looks like a pretty good match.

Doesn't match above the belt though...unless the sword is just at the right angle to block the tie between the two sections.

Yeah, that's not a good match at all.
