Eh? What's that? Us imperial Guardsmen have a hard time reading due to loss of hearing associated with the appropriate use of heavy artillery.

The auto cannon thing was leaked buy the same person who was responsible for the photo of that other scratch built terrain piece. I would be very surprised if that kit bash was the referenced fortification piece. Makes me doubt the cannon as official. But GW photos some awsome kit bashed terrain so maybe the inspiration for the kit.

The fact that the person who posted the autocannon has not made another comment about it, and the fact that no other information has been shown about it makes me feel like it isn't very official.

It also looks like absolute trash.

While I see where you're coming from, all this guy is doing is leaking official photos which show both kit bashes of old kits and brand new kits. I don't doubt the authenticity of the auto cannon, as we haven't seen anything like it before and the picture is very much in keeping with how GW photographs weapon options for new kits.

The autocannon image also shows off a glimpse of new armoured panelling for the Armiger, something mentioned in previous rumours, yes?

Those articles almost always drop by 11EDT. it's currently 12edt

Look nobody has more reason to want it to be today more than me. I just had to sell my army to pay for car bills so i'm currently armyless. but if it the pre order announcement doesn't go up today the next slot is august.

all they said was soon.... just like the FAQ which dropped 2 months late.

I kind of hope you can dual-wield those flamers.

I doubt it, that variant does drop the shoulder-mounted turrets in favour of more invulnerable save ignoring missiles though.

Dual-wielding might be one of the things that freeblades get as a bonus. Pure speculation of course

They always drop by 6:30 GMT (or i guess BST atm). It’s 5 BST now. Even if Knights weren’t coming, we’d still have an article saying what was coming next week.

https://war-of-sigmar.herokuapp.com/bloggings/2972 Unless War of Sigmar got a super early review copy its pre orders next Saturday.

Looks like it has a single central turret above the hatch.

It appears to have swapped the auto cannons on the shoulders for missions on the shoulders.

Either way, I would love to do:

2x Gatling Flamer and 2x Autocannons with stubbers and just become the dakkabot 5000.

Oh please. #w hasn't revealed trio of codexes with one being months ago and community hasn't put article like that months ahead either.

Knights start of june, late june and likely july aos 2nd. August likely has next trio of codexes starting so here's hoping for orks

Oh sweet emperor. D:

Also, I much prefer the profile of the new big knight without the shoulder turrets. It's not bad when it has them, but this version looks more like a knight and a little less like a castle on legs. (Not that I have anything against walking castles, oc).

Last week's article went up very late, the equivalent of an hour and 40 minutes from now.

Anyone notice the tall skinny knight in the back of the picture?

I'm not seeing any new Knights in the picture. You mean the green one? That's probably Gerantius.

Looks like a normal Knight to me.

The chain sword is on the wrong arm isn't it?

Orky terrain in the foreground! It’s a hint I tell ya!

Is that a new KFF?

Not if its a Knight Gallant its not.

KNIGHTS!

What if you’re looking to grab some classic Knights to add to your army? Perhaps you’ve been inspired to finally bite the bullet, or perhaps you just fancy some more Knight Paladins, Knight Wardens and so on. Well, we’ve got some great news – Imperial Knights: Renegade is coming back, and it’s going to save you EVEN MORE money than before!

For those of you that missed it the first time, Imperial Knights: Renegade is a boxed game that pits two Knights against one another in epic combat. As well as being a great game in its own right, the set costs much less than buying two Knights on their own, AND even features some scenery – we’ve swapped out the older Sector Imperialis stuff for a shiny new Galvanic Magnavent. This kit’s a pretty appealing option for Chaos players too, as you’ll be able to field both Knights inside as Renegades using the rules in Index: Chaos. Handy!
