Warhammer Community just posted about tomorrow’s preview.
As with last week, kicks off on Twitch at 1:45pm, with the first preview 2:00pm UK time. Twitch is again free. Will run for approx 1.5 hours, with reveals around every 10 minutes.
That’s more often that the first preview, which approx every 15 minutes. Roundup will be available on Warhammer Community, as is tradition.
Chat function on Twitch will be Subscriber Only.
No mention at all of what games or systems we can expect shiny new for.
Fed up of Scalpers? But still want your Exclusives? Why not join us?
If you do log on for the Twitch stream, beware that the opening 15 minutes is likely to be the hosts talking to each other, not necessarily about anything coming up in the stream. They may well take the opportunity to recap last Saturday's stream, but don't expect anything to drop in that time.

Confirmation of why no-one should listen to Kanluwen when it comes to the IG - he doesn't want the IG, he want's Kan's New Model Army...

I'm in a weird spot with these. Of my 4 armies across AoS and 40k, Stormcast are unlikely to get anything and frankly shouldn't even though their battletome is arse, Daughters of Khaine are 2 years old and could really use a new book and a new kit or two but are unlikely to be getting anything anytime soon, Sisters JUST got released, but could still use a small rules bump and maybe a new kit in either the FA or Troop slot, but are incredibly unlikely to get anything more than a sidebar in a PA book, and I could give a gak what space marines get.
So like...unless DoK come out of nowhere with a big punch up...I don't really have anything I care about seeing.
*shrug* They already scraped the bottom of the barrel with the Aeronautica stuff. I have to believe if they're doing that foolishness, they have to recognize how much the Inquisitor game / miniatures added to the setting.

The game was an awesome opportunity to build the setting... But the choice to use 54mm models for it was a bad one, and I suspect the main reason it never took off. From what I've seen over the years, most of those who did actually play it used regular 40k models for it instead.
I used one of the 54mm scale Chaos guys as a 40k scale daemon prince of Tzeench, having him ride a giant disc of Tzeench made from 2 60mm flight bases and a bunch of spikes from the 3rd edition dozer blade.

I would argue the 54mm miniatures were a fantastic idea, and are the best they ever produced.
In any case, with all the investments they are putting into the old Specialist Games, plus the apparent popularity of the Bandai / whatever the other one was figures, you'd think that would make a strong case for a revised 54mm line reveal sometime.
=][= minis are great. When the game pretty much failed (or was just killed with the rest of SG), there were so many on ebay for like £5 each, I ended up with the whole range in triplicate. I must have had well over 100 of them at one point. Good times.

Oh, a lot of them were fantastic miniatures, for sure... But from what I saw, people for the most part were just not interested in that scale, so they didn't buy them and ignored the game. The fact that the range was quite small, and the quality of the sculpts quickly nosedived didn't help.
But that's probably far enough down that rabbit hole... Suffice to say, I'd be very surprised to see Inquisitor come back in anything other than the same scale as 40k.

Hopefully they show something from the AoS Sons of Behemat the Battletome has already shipped and is sitting in warehouses so they must have been close to release.

And made sure it wasn't just 40k with smaller models. No orks or tau or necron for some reason. There's very few 40k modeis that fits the game
Hopefully some better images of those Primaris bikes and speeder. Sons of Behemat. Possible Ork models which may or may not be some of the rumour engines. Maybe some Daemon or Shadow aelf/DoK stuff (again from rumour engine pics) or maybe some more info perhaps on Pariah or War of the Spider. And maybe a new 40k Primarch is what I reckon could be shown today. Of course after last week who knows.
Well its something to distract us, there will be some fun and jokes... can't see the harm.
Hoping for more info on Beastgrave stuff and whats next in AOS.
Love to see a non Marine range for the creations of Fabius Bile - loads of fun stuff in the lore.
Marines - there has been some interesting stuff with the Chapter Thralls in recent books so would enjoy seeing some of them.

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.

GW:"Space marines got too many options to balance, therefore we decided to legends HH units." Players: "why?!? Now we finally got decent plastic kits and you cut them?" Chaos marines players: "Since when are Daemonengines 30k models and why do i have NO droppods now?" GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!" Chaos players: Guess i stop playing or go to HH.
