That I am aware, there won't be. In so far the three books have been solo releases, showing the campaign book and the corresponding triumvirate.
Also, I'm sure it would look too much like a comedy film. Not that it's a bad thing of course.

I'm really hoping they do. They do some great books with just tiny Codex blurbs, with all these to gather inspiration from, some serious cool books could be made.
Heck, I'd LOVE one about the Genestealer cult they found on Terra! TERRA! That one bit of info in GSII was freakin' amazing.

Meh, doesn't sound any worse than the Horus Heresy novels.

Chills down my spine when the chanting starts and Cawl starts listing his allies and his resolution. Now that's one loyal magos!

Video does make it interesting. I just want to know what Robute (spelling?) thinks when he wakes up.

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.
Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

Then I remembered he's more or less machine, and his voice makes sense...
Most Tech-priests do. They have a holy machine language they normally speak that is translated as required. I like to picture them sounding like a 56k modem

Some of them even have some difficulty using their vocal cords again And yeah, when they speak "binary", I too imagine the 56k modem sounds

Is it just me or foes Cawl just keep getting cooler and cooler?

The enemies of Mankind may employ dark sciences or alien weapons beyond Humanity's ken, but such deviance comes to naught in the face of honest human intolerance back by a sufficient number of guns.

I love the implication that Cawl was told to fix and wake up Rowboat 10,000 years ago and has just been procrastinating this entire time. And now, with Cadia falling, he finally gets his ass in gear and decides to go flip the couple switches needed to wake him up.
That is amazing.
These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

Highlords of the Imperium: So, Cawl, what's happening? Aahh, now, are you going to go ahead and have that primarch healed for us this afternoon?
Cawls: No.
Highlords: Ah. Yeah. So I guess we should probably go ahead and have a little talk. Hmm?
Cawl: Not right now, guys, I'm kinda busy. In fact, look, I'm gonna have to ask you to just go ahead and come back another time. I got a meeting with the Crons in a couple of minutes.
Highlords: I wasn't aware of a meeting with them.
Cawl: Yeah, they called me at home.
I'm back!

If you listen carefully, it wasn't something he was told to "fix and wake up Roboute 10,000 years ago".
The exact quote is:
Ten millennia ago, I was set a task. One abandoned when the galaxy burned.
It was a task he was set to before Guilliman was put into stasis.
Whatever this "task" is? It's something the Emperor himself gave Cawl.
That is huge.

Wow, I agree with Kan. In breaking news dogs and cats learn to live together, people on the internet relax and consider other peoples opinions, Israelis and Arabs learn to live in peace. Wow I think I'm going to buy a lotto ticket tonight.

I'm going with Grey Knights, since it's the 3 forces of the Triumvirate.
