So who has been; who is going; who is already there? What news can you reveal - or has been revealed?

What revelations have designers revealed; what new models are out there; new games; any big sales and such? Or just want to share the loot you've managed to snag and make off with.

Also Old Umbrey and Nyss models were spotted in a display booth at the event. No formal announcements yet but expected to be some warmachine news from the event.

Not My Photos (reddit/discord finds). Sharing a link to them as they are quite big; there's Old Umbrey and Orgoth Sea Raiders

FWIW, all of this stuff was in the playtest leak so we know pretty well what they are (though what they do has likely changed a great deal).

Khador Old Umbrey is the Auxiliary box that gives them their large base bear cavalry, small based ranged support, werebear solos and a control caster around summoning vines.

The other picture is two new Command Cadres. The first is Nyss Hunters working for the Dusk elves lead by the returning Lanyssa Ryssyl as a full Warlock with two character beasts. The second is the Orgoth Deathless, also featuring a Warlock for the faction built around Undead Warbeasts.

Ahh posted at the same time my post went up so missed it. Yeah they are from the new Warmachine faction Old Umbrey who are a division of Khador.

You can see their full range here: https://steamforged.com/collections/warmachine-khador-old-umbrey

You get to pull a few of the core Khador models with their jacks and armour; but also pull in the main Umbrey army of beasts/were people and such.

Thanks. When I saw the list of names, I figured they were one each for the different pics and hadn't ever heard of Old Umbrey (assumed it was some british old timey minis maker still sculpting by hand and casting in lead, lol!). I didn't make the visual connection either with Warmachine/khador though in retrospect bears (no beets or BSG sadly though) do fit with steampunk russian fantasy commies as tropes go! I also still automatically primarily associate Steamforged with Guild Ball though I know that's years out of date as well. Regardless, some of those figs look nice as do these from the link provided:
