I always wanted a small marine force, with every marine being characterful..

Deatasque by itself is already a bound army since it's a formation.

Just a healthy desire for German Battle Nuns and their German Nurse Nun counterparts.

I get the feeling that Eldar of all sorts will be getting their updates soon. There was also the rumor they were going to make an Eldar Exodite army for next year. Sooner rather than later the pendulum will swing back to the Tau during this great end times. They will likely have several parts to this ongoing story and at some point there will logically be one for all the major factions/areas of the map. It's just in which order and when they come out that's the question.

I have a feeling the Eldar plot to kill Slaanesh is going to end poorly. With good odds Slaanesh survives and Yinaeed awakening and not being so friendly. Otherwise we could see Slaanesh dying and Yineead arriving and being horrible and taking the place of Slaanesh in the pantheon just with death theme. The third option is Yineead is stopped/fails. I find this the least likely is the plot fails entirely since it's clear they have been building up to this in the lore as an emergency print money button. It is still a possibility and must be listed. There are others of course but I find these the most likely. If the Eldar do manage to save themselves from Slaanesh the birth of a warp god that powerful will have effects on the galaxy. I can see huge return and upswing in Chaos as the story progress into their arc thanks to the mistakes of the Eldar.

Sehr gut

So Eldread is going to = Teclis then :(

I get the feeling the Exodites are going to be pissed at their Craftworld and Cammoragh kin. They had it the most right. Just go away from the universe and settle down on a planet with a limited amount of tech since their ability to affect the warp is so strong.

Unfortunately Eldrad can't leave well enough alone and messes up. I imagine with the birth of a second dark god and its affects on the galaxy might prompt the Exodites to return to wipe out all of their kin and once that is done possibly themselves.

That is just one theory for how they might be pissed off enough to come back after Eldrad does his thing.

Edit
After all these various campaigns go down and we get back to the Tau walled into their gulf we will see their emotional devastation. Emotionally devastated from the warp effects, from the loss of the high ethereal, all their anger at the injustices and why Farsight is still exiled, and anger for their losses in the gulf. The Tau are a race that seems to have nearly endless drive to ever go onward except now there is a dark side emerging to them with all of these effects. I think we'll see Tau psykers and warp travel or possibly a new type of FTL. Most likely warp to go in with their devastated and now more warp awakened minds. This will have dire consequences for the galaxy. This is some extremely long range speculating so as books and lore comes out I will have to slowly fiddle with the theory. We will likely get an answer if Farsight is a champion for the good races of 40k that is prophesied... or for the bad races of 40k.

How powerful are the exodites? Would they really be strong enough to wipe out ALL the craftworlds AND Cammoragh?

I find this unlikely since the Chaos pantheon exists in both 40k and AoS, and AoS already has a god of death (Nagash). I find it far more likely the Slaanesh ends up bitchslapping Eldrad back to Ulthwe after claiming the souls of this Harlequin troupe and becoming even more powerful. I honestly think it would be awesome for GW to bring back Eldrad just to have him immediately killed again. Slaanesh grows incredibly strong with the soul of such a powerful psyker and begins reaping Eldar souls that were once preserved in soul stones.

They aren't powerful now, but they are the most numerous and stable population of Eldar. I imagine they will have to get back into the swing of ruling a true space empire for a bit. Of all the Eldar they impressed me by being the most humble of their kind and they have prospered with being widespread and numerous for it. More so than the craftworld Eldar. They would be more akin to the wood elves in space aspect that is missing. Also allegedly they use more beasts and animals in war. So that would be cool to see and then add in Eldar weaponry mounts on them.

Edit
I found it less likely as well given some of the newer stuff people have shown me. Still it is a possibility. I think we'll see Yineead just added to the chaos pantheon.

I was wondering the same. Plus, even if they are, they're all spread out on their own worlds anyway. To my knowledge, they don't even communicate between each other, they're just able to send distress calls to craftworlds.

Tau IIRC have no presence in the warp, their emotions won't make a difference and I do t think we will see any psychers from them unless their is a complete overhaul to fit them in(possible) I could be mistaken though but that's how I had the tau down.

On another note I love how Artemis' power sword reads exterminatus+ like screw the exterminatus order I'll purge this whole world with my power sword!

It goes back to epic fluff I believe. I'd love to see Exodites not before Sisters though. They really reluctantly call for aid. Why?

Well they left quite before the fall created old Soul Gobbler and probably see the Dark Eldar as just as bad as those who caused it. They also probably feel the cradtworlds are still trying to hang onto parts of a Civilization that they left quite a while ago.

Tau are blunt not blank - they have minimal but not absence presence int he warp (unless thats changed?)

40k's Mannfred - maybe the Chapter Master of the Dark Angels - lets face they are dicks - were in the HH - are now.....(I liked them when they were native American based fighting but anythig after that is dull to me)

Malkeith = Vect?
Malys = Morathi?

Sigmar = The Emperor - so maybe the Calgar is Karl Franz?

Middenheim is Fenris

etc........

Exodites tend to be confined to a single world (World spirit of their ancestors) and don't ever seem to have void defences / spacecraft to protect it (?!!) ..........very vulnerable, increasingly depicted as relying on their Cousins to protect (or avenge them)

Since craftworlders and exodites travel in each other realms there most definitely HAS to be some level of communication. I mean I can't see exodite visiting craftworld and not doing ANY communication

Does that mean he'll die and then the Emperor will take over his corpse to return? Because that would be bitchin.

They could have Nausicar psykers.

Exodites do have ships. Just not many. And lots of Corsairs started as Exodites

Ah, cool! I didn't know exodites visit craftworlds and such, I just knew about the craftworlders showing up when exodite worlds are in trouble. Knowing is half the battle!

And also why would they want to? DE raid them, so I can see animosity there, but CWE are the ones that intervene to save them. Wouldn't it be weird for the Exodites to come into the game specifically to annihilate the other Eldar?

Well quite Cammoragh is supposedly endless?? It's unclear how big it us.

Plus they grow lots of goons that they can just swarm at people of they need to

Some people are getting the wrong impression from these end times. This is not End times the story with 40k character pasted into it. It's its own event. People just refer to it as the End Times of 40k due to the similarities in how GW is handling it.

Comparing characters from each game and saying they are like x is only going to lead to wild disappointment as usual.

I can't recall any mention of Exodite Ships - be cool to be wrong though - on the rare occassions that they travel they seem to use the webway?

Well its not impossible I guess and I can't think of a more likely candidate off hand?

I still don't know why they have not had a crossover anyway and stated up the 40k models so you can use them in AOS..........

Its a forum, we are gamers it's what we do. well ok mostly me - but bored and online

Also the world will not end that has been confirmed by highly reliable rumor mongers. So again this is not like AoS. It's just the world getting worse.

Except people are talking out of their asses.
The story is moving along and people are assuming End Times because of Warhammer Fantasy.
It is about time the storyline moves forward a little, but people use the stupid assed term End Times far too lightly.

Hmm, the focus on the enemies of the Imperium seems to be on the ones that I don't play - Chaos, Tyranids and Tau.

No love for Orks or Necrons? :sadface:
