One or two of those games with Warhammer minis that they hardly advertise and I don't ever learn their names.

I might actually play Settlers of Catachan!
It'll be interesting to see what GW has in store. Hope they release info about the next Space Marine heroes.

Settlers of Catachan sound cool.
If 7 of the 10 players haven't died horrific deaths, then that was an EASY game session!

Maybe a new series of Funkos then?
But hoping for a full unveil of Ghazghull or if they're doing more boardgames, glimpses at future mini releases tied into those.

How about an introductory/Learn-to-Play game of BFG? That would be completely unexpected.
But probably more Bandai/Funko stuff.

I'd all up for settlers of catachan and make it an Aus/NZ only thing.

Ripper furbies are the devil - but the fact that GW hasn't got Ripper plushies is possibly criminally insane of them. You can bet a few rippers and gryph hound stuffed toys would sell like mad (heck PP sells stuffed shredders)

GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!"

I'd be obligated by my friends to get a Gryph-Hound, seeing as I've got 36 of the blighters...and ran an almost all Gryph-Hound army once.

I think it'll be interesting to see because it will really give us a sense of how receptive the industry has been to GW's licensing and whether there is a sense that its profitable enough after those fees.

GW is sort of in the middle outside of its own market. This makes it big enough that big firms will pay attention to them and can see potential in a licence agreement; however it also means that smaller firms who want a leg-up in the crowded market are more willing to stump up the cash to get the GW IP even if its not the best deal in the world, because it helps them rise above the rest with a recognised IP. GW is also likely a lot easier to sign on than some really big names like Starwars or almost any major Hollywood films (which also come with major time constraints).
I think for GW its also a very easy way to generate income from their IP without risking their core market. There's a few question marks though. For example the recent AoS Champions card and digital game was quite popular for a time and was starting to cover some ground in growing itself. However the company behind it clearly didn't make it work and after 6 months of utter silence they formally closed the physical game side of it (keep in mind during those 6 months they had an expansion due for physical release "at any moment" which was already digitally released and, from their FB page comments, stockists couldn't even get any physical stock for the already released stuff). Whilst its not GWs "core" market; its clear that a product like that is basically targeting the same market enough that bad results are going to tarnish GW's name and licence. Then again its not the first card game to go under with the GW IP and it doesn't seem to have stalled GW taking on new faces and companies attempting to make it into that market.

Honestly at this point my main want on the reveals is the Scions of the Flame, since they are the last warband for Warcry, this seems as good of a place to reveal them as any too.
