There is a new GUO.

As I have mentioned previously, I was sent a snapchat with the pics.

Fun fact, the original CAD for the model was eventually used to make the Glotkin. All four gods had updated CAD sculpts, plus a new dragon that ended up being the mount for a certain chief protagonist.

You can choose to ignore this

Back in 1st or 2nd edition it was canon that the wadrhammer world was a planet on the edge of the eye of terror. Sigmar was one of the missing 2 primarchs (never flat out said but heavily hinted at). Chaos lords could get plasma weapons and you could take chaos space marines

Yeah, there was a lot of cross-pollination back then. Mephiston used to have almost exactly the same stat line as a vampire lord from Fantasy, because, well, that's basically what Mephiston is.

When do we reckon we'll get some Death Guard news? The teaser a couple of weeks ago got me excited for some reveals but it seems they still don't wanna talk about our release. Maybe after the new AoS Nurgle box has gone on preorder?

I'm pretty sure the teaser was a response to the Morty leak, and it was meant to be shown later. But the wait is killing me!

Yes, at the end of the teaser, it says September. Next month's White Dwarf is going to be DG. I imagine we'll start getting some previews next week.

Yeah but that's only a couple of weeks away. The Primaris were announced and showed off months before their full release. I wanna seee the toooiiiiizzzz!

I think September indicated no new info till September, so anything before then will be leaks not official.

Plus, how much is left to leak do we think? We've got a solid overview of every unit I expect we will get, now that we know a lot of speculated stuff was blight wars. Maybe some additional options for them but that's about it. It's mostly just the fine details left.

Also AdMech is codex #5

Hmmm, looks like a 3-model Deathshroud unit and a 5 man Plague Terminator unit. Also, a new loadout Blight Drone.

I hope they get a kit for multipart poxwalkers

So...

-Mortarion
-Plague Terminators
-Alternate special Plague Terminators
-Plague Captain (Typhus?)
-Multipart Plague Marines
-Plaguecrawler tank thing
-Alternate/new Plague Drone
-Tallyman

What else are we missing?

Look at the guy to the right of Morty, with the black hood and one big horn. Looks like he is holding a large syringe gun thing. Nevermind.. its the poxwalkers weapon and the guy just has a powerfist.

Also tone of those new plague mortar tanks is different. It has a single barrel weapon for its hull mount than the one in back (with three barrels)

That's gotta be Typhus holding the Scythe up in the air......

Actually that looks like 2 new plague drones (so a box of 3, for say £45?)

check the carapace the one on the left has the 3 skull motif rather than the fly from the starter, and the weapons are different too although you can't see them clearly (they could be a close combat buzz saw type thing, they are certainly close to the ground)

and as has already been spotted the central one has another carapace design, and has a tribarrled single weapon with a fuel tank on the other side of the drone

Yep. Has the same helmet as the original.

That Typhus....

Typhus' pose looks a little ott but I'll have to see better pics. The Deathshroud guys look awesome.

I love all the Terminators in this picture. Also, those broad drone weapon variants have me pretty stoked. Typhus looks glorious as well. And man, even the proper Plague Marine kits looks amazing!

Basically, 10/10, must buy

EDIT: I'm also seeing different front mounted weapons on the Plague Crawlers up the back there

These look very very cool! Are the Deathshroud guys the bigger ones in front?

Yes, the ones with scythes near Mortarion.

Hang on a minute 'DEATHGUARD' have terminators?

All that rage online for the past 2 months....

The problem was the Index list couldn't take regular CSM Terminators, so for the last two months we've been getting our butts kicked because we have no heavy infantry or ways to bring much needed special weapons.

So, one of the termies with guns has what I assume to be an autocannon, but is it me, or do the rest have combi-bolter sized Plague spitter type guns? The nozzals look wide and oval, rather than barrels for bullets.

From the plague marine datasheet in Heretics Astartes, we're seeing more normal weapons being replaced with their 'plague' counterparts.

There's a plague marine in the back, under mortarion's wing, & next to the blight drone who has a rather 'heavy' looking weapon. At first glance I'd say it's a lascannon, but I'm guessing it's something else (probably that slime shooting heavy flamer equivalent).

Also, it seems odd that the terminator kit would be 3 deathshroud & 4 of the other terminators. Unless one figure from that unit behind typhus is an HQ/elite of some sort?

In any case, a great pic, & loving what we've got coming! Glad I started saving awhile back.

Almost looks like one of the Plague Drones has a Close Combat Weapon.

Yes, the left one seems to have a lawnmower held in both arms, kinda like a baby deffrolla.

I wander if it's a kit of 7 and you can build them how you want, with 3 being the minimum size for a unit. I'd be down with that.

Yeah, it looks awesome. Though I'm more keen on the gun that middle one has, with the big drum on one side and the 3 barrelled nasty thing on the other
