Still nothing...

the seminars is at 8p.m. (in 5 hours)

People say it's marked as 3 hours of seminar

**H.B.M.C.**

In 5 hours it'll be 7am. I can't stay up that late.

Or can I... ?

Do, or do not.

If it’s the latter, I’ll call you a wussy bunghole

They'll probably hold back the warcom article until the seminar is done, so I wouldn't expect anything before 8am

Yeah the reveal will be right at the very end. So, get your 8 hours sleep before and wake up for the reveal!

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

To be fair, I’ll call him a wussy bunghole after I’ve woken up

**ritualnet**

Don't be like me. I waited up all night for the Sega press conference, back in the day, as there was rumours of a Dreamcast 2. I was so excited, there was hundreds of us on a chat room, all discussing our dreams, and then... Sega announced that it was the previously disclosed Phantasy Star Online on Xbox.

I cried.

Go to sleep, enjoy the rest, wake up in morning, and hopefully the news is good.

Is there a time code somewhere that will tell us when we are likely to see these previews, I don't even know where this event even is.

It's currently 4:08PM in the UK(where the event is happening I think)...so you still have some time to go.

**phillv85**

8pm here in the UK tonight is 4pm in Washington DC according to google.

Thanks! This will make my work day better here, about an hour before I get off, I should have a lot of news to read!!

I was about to say the potato camera picture doesn't throw me off an I'm still going to buy this game, but I guess I'll need to reserve judgment until later.

Shame. I really wanted to commit to this.

If you zoom in on the far right hand side level with the top lot of dice you've got what look like 4 snake (worm?) men,

the shape is fairly distinctive with an 's' bend in it

and just above them 2 of the spindle drones

below them is some sort of 3d terrain with either somebody standing on it or a statue, and I think 3 or 4 more bits that could be similar bits of terrain, although they're less clear

Those are the Ur-ghuls.

Yeah. UK made the daylight savings transition last week and we haven't yet. So its a 4 hour time difference instead of 5 until early Sunday morning.

Just to kill a bit of time, here is a rumor form 4Chan:

Someone I know got a good look at the contents. He doesn’t know all the details but here’s what I was told:

-Rogue Traders are called the Explorers and consist of the following:
-Rogue Trader
-Eldar Ranger
-Kroot Merc
-Astronavigator and servitor of some sort?
-Stormcast looking guy (don’t know what he is but has a Flamer Chainsaw)
-2 Rattling Pirates and their big robot.

Enemies are reportedly:
-Chaos Lord
-Chaos Marines (only 2 or 3)
-Negavolt Cultists
-Renegade Guardsmen (reportedly these models have options)
-Khornegors
-Ur-Ghul
-Skitter Drone

In total there’s about 40 models in the box

**BrookM**

Navigator makes sense, the model has a third eye on the forehead.

Eh... it's not so much a rumor as a: we have seen the models' he's refering to already. Still, it's a time killer.

**Voss**

Hmm. Not sold on Khornegors specifically. The two beastmen in the video look pretty standard (the one facing away has curling horns), and while the other doesn't have much detail to the face, nothing jumped out as Khornate.

Mind you, I'm a little biased- It doesn't help that the old Khornate beastmen had a distinct look (doglike), and the new Tzaangors ended up being pretty consistent with old models/conversions and expectations of what they would look like.

Not on you since you were just quoting someone else, but everyone repeat after me:

"Iron Halo"

**drbored**

Can't wait for the full reveal! I'm mostly excited to see those Chaos Marines!! That'll be the style they go forward with for new releases, I'm sure!

I mean Tzaangors only look as they do, because of beak mutation and feathers. Take those off and you have what was in the video.

What, rounded shoulderpads is now exclusively a Stormcast Eternals thing?

Nobody tell my old metal Cadians! They don't want to be Stormcast Eternals.

**Lorek**

The shoulderpads do have a distinctly medieval feel to them about it.

Face looks too gracile to be Space Marine / Stormcast, though. Looks more human-standard. Maybe a new Crusader?

Not models, but that’s all the stuff from the videos.

Which don't look like Stormcast shoulder pads. Far less ornate, the side cut is entirely different, and they're a lot shorter, with a flat end, rather than the complex taper of the Stormcast. It also isn't attached/molded to the upper arm armor in an even vaguely similar fashion.
