Definitely a question, not a statement,

But between the boxed set coming soon, and this? Could be we’re getting a heck of a reveal from Nova!

Should’ve cited the source. 40k FB Page.

I freaking hope not, I'm going to be (even more) pissed if we get plastic effing ROGUE TRADERS before we get plastic Eldar aspect warriors.

Different Rogue Trader name, and we know the background to the boxed game already.

Now, what’s been redacted? A new Astronomicon of some kind?

As long as they bring out some new Rogue Trader related fiction that isn't written by Andy Hoare, I'm happy.

A new planet?

Maybe Rogue Traders will feature heavily in a new Imperial Agents type of codex?

By this I mean we might get an Imperial Agents book that still has the Inquisition, but also has Rogue Traders.

Can anyone identify the blurry figure on the right hand side of the image?

A new Blackstone Fortress. It's unusual enough to create rumors and hype and it is something that can be claimed.

Have we got no news from Nova yet? I’ve been refreshing Community site every half hour since 5 for updates.

Completely not shocked, but kinda excited.

Cue salt poisoning from various “why wasn’t my faction first” type posts.

Thought Nova kicked off on Thursday? Is only Wednesday?

The seminar isn't until 9pm tonight, local time.

They've said that since last Saturday.

Interesting, and would be cool if you’ve called it!

It absolutely isn't, but it looks like young Eisenhorn, or very similar.

The timing of this almost has to tie into tonight's preview seminar at NOVA.

Dyson Sphere -> Silent King -> Necron Tomb Kill Team box

Contact me for my winnings on announcement day.

So we’re looking at a 2am start under BST?

Frankly i wouldn#t hold my breath waiting for plastic aspect warriors in current style. Much like i suspect we won#t get plastic berserkers eldars likely will get new units instead. Much like new ork buggies aren't update but new units and how mek guns were also new units. Sells better

Half past midnight BST according to WH Community themselves, 2am finish. Much longer seminar than usual.

It’d be nice if it was an imperial agents book that included inquisitors and rogue traders as different hqs.

Nice. Cheers for the clear up!

Come on Rogue Trader Codex! I want a ragtag band of cutthroats!

Not necessarily. The Games Workshop Preview Event is from 7:30 to 9:00 EDT tonight. That puts it at 12:30 to 2:00 BST. It all depends if the previews go up during the event or if they wait until it wraps up.

Squats.

Wasn't there speculation back when the skulls box and the index dropped about a new race? Some kind of big xenos thing?

What about that?

I believe we know what all of the skulls in the Citadel Skulls kit belong to.

Pete Foley said they'll go up after the event--but maybe not immediately, depending on how long the Q&A runs.

Worth mentioning they also put up a similar teaser for Shadespire.

What type of valuable thing occasionally wanders in through the edge of our galaxy?

Could be a new Species or System I Guess?

I mean, in a setting where you can shift Planets around, nearly anything is possible?

Space Hulks.

Space hulks generally.




Either that or more Tyranids, although only the Magi Biologis or those who worship the four-armed emperor might consider that valuable.
