Speakers died for my PC, not anything stream related.

And I can't get it to launch on my console as the stream is constantly buffering so that's neat too.

Wonder if we might see the Abeyant things in the art released?

So does it mean that apart of few named characters Necrons are now all plastic or am I missing some kit?

The new Crypteks look outstanding and I really really love the new Flayed ones look. The finecast were ungainly with those odd chunks of human flesh and huge ribcage bodies on top - the new ones are much like the old style with flayed flesh draped over them.

Loving all these! Interesting that the new destroyers are close combat as well, with the same energy blades as well. I'm guessing this means they'll be a likely faster weaker, perhaps more attacks focused close combat unit; with the tri-legged versions perhaps hitting with fewer hits but much harder.

Barring the Destroyerlord Upgrade kit and a few of their named heroes/leaders. Otherwise yes a fully plastic army range and all modern sculpts pretty much, barring the plastic hover destroyers. Remembering that we've already a new Heavy Destroyer model in plastic.

I literally started clapping when they revealed plastic flayed ones.

A bit mixed on the amount of crypteks now though. On one hand, I love crypteks, so the more, the merrier. On the other, they're giving me strong Oss-Bonelord vibes, which I never cared for. Ultimately though, really really good looking models.

I am so happy right now!

Have we filled out the book yet? No? Shove another mid-size melee unit in there!

Crypteks are awesome! Psychomancer, Chronomancer, Plasmancer...and I wonder what will count as the one with canoptek cloak?

I think concerning Necron players they already fulfilled their "best preview ever" call

Of course, still no replacement for green-rod Destroyers...

Cloakamancer?

What they did there? I see it!

I know we knew they were coming, but my eyes still rolled to the back of my head at slew of new Marine kits displayed.

Of course they regurgitated the Sigmarine Chamber meme.

I don't play marines - but that landspeeder is the best I've ever seen. It looks like the hovercar armoured beast of the marines! Really outstanding!

Psyker Dreadnoughts?

Hopefully more than just the Blood Angel one!

I love the Land Speeder.

I hate Primaris hover tanks, but that Speeder. Man...

We got 6 new Space Marine kits and 4 new Necron kits so far, if they show of some of the other models teased last time this will be an amazing preview

Sadly, I think this is a 40k only preview. But even so, great reveals. The only ones we knew for certain were the marines, since the captain, speeder, shieldguard, and eradicator kit pics leaked. It's nice to see all the options and everything looks great.

Holy crap, there is lots of stuff going around. And these new codexes provide lots more options.

Oh also:

I don’t know if I’m reading it wrong but the options for the heavy intercessors don’t make sense, though I think they have the names slightly wrong after reading it again.

Some mistakes in the wargear options in this datasheet talking about stalker bolt rifles and auto bolt rifles but should probably be executor and hellstorm bolt rifles
Probably changed names during development

"Master crafted heavy bolt rifle" is a gun with a nine syllable name, Have they really run so far through the available concise adjective/noun combinations that they're forced to give a gun a nine syllable name?

"Melta-Destroyer". Pfft!

That, my friends, is a Multi-Multi-Melta.

I want to know how many Eradicators we can have in a squad.

Primaris Death Company : )

Well, that’s a lot of Astartes out the way I guess?

Wow. 4 new Codices, and not a single one is Xenos.

Well done GW...
