So... Horus Heresy, are they going to end as strong as they began?

Quality animation. No, seriously, this is pretty amazing for GW, striving for Warcraft launch video.

Bait & switch. Another low grade game based on GW IP.

Oh no. Now what will Valrak make youtube rumor speculations on?!??!

I mean, they should have probably shown the box as it was leaked......but despite not generally being impressed with their trailers......that was one hell of a trailer!

Or no... the actual event we've been waiting for : )

It's literally the plastic models we've seen teased months ago. You can tell the armor is the same.

Nope. Boxed game. Mk VI marines. But that's it. Announcement video and _ONE_ beaky photo.

Oh. And fairly impressive (well, big) Praetor, with a honking big axe.

wait, so Harlequins are combined into a codex with Craftworlds, but we need 2 separate knight codexes? Dumb.

Lol. Lmao.

A very chunky Praetor

Hmmm...I don't know about the praetor. The head. The proportions. It just looks...wrong?

So they're not showing the box? Bold choice...

FFS.... the low res pics of the boxed set already leaked..... just show the damn boxed set....

One is chaos, one is loyalist? I agree that chaos knights could/should probably be crammed into a chaos marine codex but harlequins typically assist all eldar factions. Chaos knights and loyalist knights wouldn't help the same side.

That's a new tank design. Be interesting to see what it is.
Something I remember from doing an experience thing at WHW in 2019 was how Adam Troke agreed with the notion that more plastic HH stuff would be a really good idea.

Hey, they started really strong. One of the previews had to be a serious disappointment. Might as well pair the blow with the awesome trailer.


Now to turn my volume way back down so I don't blow my speakers...

Heh. 'The internet's best kept secret, a new HH game.' I do like a touch of self-awareness.

Big respect to that one armed Imperial Fist stepping up to Horus.

Because Chaos are eeeevil and different. Harlies are knife-eared pieces of gak like craftworld, making the new asuryani.

Hahahahaha, Wade in response to the Horus Heresy "The Internet's Best Kept Secret!"

Final teaser... chaos marines with two wounds. And a few model bits and bobs.
Coming Soon (tm)

Hey, Chaos Codex teaser. Nice.

Oh cute... a lil CSM flash at the end. Two wound CSM soon...

So...
Summary time:

Ash Wastes. Boxed Game New game, but 'existing necromunda stuff has a place in it.'
Orlocks vs Ash Wasters,
10 man gangs (new one is 5x2 sprues from the body duplicates in the pics).
Four bug riders, 2 buggies for the orlocks
Elevated huts and catwalks, quite a few rumor engine solutions.

Underworlds warband Necromancer and 6 arc zombies (dull)

40K- Imperial Knights and Chaos Knight books. (And a nice video)
New Chaos Knight Abominant, and War Dog Karnivore,
Army Set with Book, Knight and 2 Good Dogs.

Blood Bowl Team- Norse, with Beer Boars

AoS Terrain box, with a foot long skull and spine and a animated dragon skeleton as the Incarnate of Ghur
Also some Nighthaunt on a boat. Nighthaunt battle tome sometime after? versus box with DoK

Horus Heresy officially announced with a big video trailer and... two models. Mk VI armor and a Praetor. Going by the models, its that fuzzy photo we saw roughly two years ago

No dates, because they 'don't want to tempt fate' (Read: supply and shipping issues are still a thing)

Chaos Marines teased at the very very end. Coming Soon with two wounds. So (implied) release order for 40k is: Tyranids, Knights, Chaos Marines

SCREEN SHOTS!! We need screen shots of that CSM teaser! ESPECIALLY THE LEGIONAIRES DATASHEET! Please? (Also: The HH video was pretty cool, same for the Chaos Knights one.)

The video showed Legionaires having both 1 and 2 wounds, so we will have to wait and see which it actually is in the codex...

Pretty sure the 1 wound is from kill team rules and 2 wounds is for the official codex

Video by itself. There's a lot of little things in that video:

Including several rumor engines.

It shows the 1 Wound becoming 2

ffs those printer lines would drive me nuts if I worked at their painting studio.

There's a cultist in that CSM teaser video.
