It's a giant Primarch on a huge scenic base fighting non-Chaos'd up Nightlords, one of which has a Volkite weapon.

You might as well call The Lion's sword "Occam's Razor" it's so damned obvious...

Obvious, but not out of place for a News and Rumor thread. If you don’t like it, maybe you should ignore it.

Sorry, what? Don't like what? You spouting blatant incorrect statements?

Prove it’s incorrect right now. Not later, after everything is over, but now.

You can't prove negatives. You have to prove its relevant.

And a HH release isn't relevant to a thread about the Psychic Awakening books any more than the Rock Cow Giants that just got previewed are.

Have they said it’s Horus Heresy exclusive so far, or at the time the pic was posted here?

So how many of the Psychic Awakening units have been from Forge World?

Prove it!

Or you could talk about it in the thread dedicated for non-PA releases like this...Or are you going to talk about AOS aelves or LOTR Eomer here? They have as much to do with psychic awakening as Lion.

Seen PA rules for Horus? Sanquinus? Vulkan?

Give me a break.

ANY of the FW primarch models got 40k rules? Even once? You can tell just from the sculpt it's FW model...

Let's see-

Black pre heresy armour? Check.
Clearly pre heresy Night Lords? Check.
HH era weaponry? Check.
Scenic diorama base? Check.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then it must be for Psychic Awakening...

It was a compiled picture for the rumors thread. At the time, did they say that that clearly Dark Angels related model was Horus Heresy exclusive? Just because to probably will be doesn’t necessarily mean it will be. It also goes with how there have been rumors for years about how anothe loyalist Primarich will return.

Other than chaos what factions are there?



Edit: Just heard on the stream, Custodes, Assassin and Death Guard.

Talons and Assassins, it think.

Well updated Assassin rules will be nice I guess? It'll probably just be a repeat of what we had in White Dwarf except they add something to them like they did with the Inquisition so that we can take them without breaking Super Doctrines in Marine armies.

https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Officio_Assassinorum
Symbol
And I’m quite sure that that’s a Talons or Legio Custodes symbol. Also
“ also the cover star of the next book in the Psychic Awakening saga – War of the Spider. As he spins his plans and schemes, his enemies close in on him – the Death Guard, Officio Assassinorum and Talons of the Emperor all have their reasons for wanting to stop Bile. Along with background on the battles taking place amid the ruins of the Cadia System, the book will include new rules for the Adeptus Custodes, Sisters of Silence and Imperial Assassins. “
Cry harder

The new Fabius is very faithful to the original. Not that it's a bad thing but I wonder why it's so unchanged. Also, face is much improved, still not seeing why people dislike the new one, aside maybe from him being unattractive.

I think it’s partially due to how tight the collar clings to his cheeks.

The new Bile is very nice. Such a nice interpretation of MG's original artwork and the old mini.

I wish he had the other helper from the artwork, the guy with the big tank of... something.

It's almost silly how much better the new Bile is. GW did a good job on this one.

It’s awesome. Everything is pretty much identical to the old one, just better.

Probbaly holding his face together. I wish we were getting proper New Men not just more Chaos Marines.

100% agreed.

Despite the awful face (and it is awful, but then I suppose Fabius isn't known for being the most handsome of Marines) the posing and general balance of the model absolutely nails it. He looks exactly as he is portrayed (from my admittedly limited understanding of the lore around him) in the lore - casually strutting forward like an absolute pimp who truly believes (knows?) he is better than you. Awesome. It's a shame GW don't show this sort of love to all of the resculpts.

Those spindly bits will break. But man, I might have to get this model. A literal 40k pimp is too much for me to resist and I could always use those syringes for a Painboy conversion if I want.

Of all that era’s Special Characters, Fabius probably aged the best due to a pretty unique pose.

This one updates it faithfully. Not so much reinventing the wheel, as making it alloys.

I don't think there's any (other) new models are there? They're just rules to give Fabius' slant on the normal Chaos Marine archetype?

It's a wasted opportunity not to do normal cultists IMO.

So last PA book is going to be Necron, Harleis, Inquisition and DW or are we missing some more?

Lol why GW even bothers to say anything when players don't believe them

Actually, it's Custodes (with Sisters of Silence apparently), Assassins, Death Guard and .... drum roll ..... shiny new mini-faction, "Agents of Bile"!

If you've been keeping an eye on the thread, that's probably a jab at some of Apple Peel's lunacy on the previous page regarding the Lion, more than anything else.

And looking at your posting over a couple of threads today, dude, you might need to take a step away from the forum and re-centre yourself.
