Honestly, I’d say a redone MkIV is more probable. To add to the chance, a lot of resin MkIV kits have gone sold out online

I wonder if they will release new stuff focusing on the siege of Terra.

Bringing us closer to the day when GW finally tips the power creep into madness levels and makes the Emperor into a model. (He was teased in the old Custodes list).

But for now, I'm just waiting to see what comes next.

I'd love a re-done MKIV kit, done in the style of the Forge World models but with modern MKIII / MKVI proportions.

I always hated the plastic MKIV, but done correctly it is my favourite armour mark.

Unfortunately I've not got many reasons to doubt valrek's info, so MKII it is.

I can't see them not EVENTUALLY doing SoT, or at least parts of it. But I also think it'll be after we get 2.0 versions of many of the primarchs (transfigured versions / maimed for perturabo, and probably late heresy iterations of many loyalists). So maybe ten years down the line.

If the Saturnine Terminator rumors are true, this is the start of "3 models to a box elite units" like most of the primaris range. With no reduction in cost. Hopefully not, but man do I hate that trend.

Fulgrim is the SoT version of him, I'm confused what you guys mean by SoT other than stuff like that?

Edit: Angron was also mentioned as being the version in the closing months of the Heresy, ready to duel at the eternity gate.

Fulgrim and Angron both actually ascended quite a bit before the Siege.

Angron ascends in 008.M31 and Fulgrim in 007.M31 while the Siege was 014.M31.

Angron was also forcibly transfigured. Poor guy never caught a break. Slave on Nunceria, slave to The Emperor, and then slave of a mad god. Only ever treated as a handy weapon.

He has Saturnine written on his base, he is being depicted at a very specific point in the SoT

Yeah I know. So we're missing Mortarion, Magnus, Peter-turbo, and Khan with Bike primarily.

Webway War Ferrus Manus would be nice as well

There is still hope for new MkIV....

I read on B&C that there's been some Reddit rumours doing the rounds, where they claim its actually MKIV and that the gun emplacements are rapiers. But everything's still pretty vague either way, Adepticon should solidify things I reckon..

Plastic Rapiers would be nice.

Given there was art of a (slightly) altered Rapier in one of the books recent a plastic version seems very likely even if it's not included in this box.

The Legions Imperialis Marine Rapiers are different to the 30k models (but the Solar Auxilia ones are the same).

Emplacement could also describe Tarantula.

All the LI scale models will get the plastic treatment in 28mil eventually. This is actually an awesome thing, since those Dreadnought Drop Pods have already been released for LI.

In fact, given what we already have for LI, most of the things we are still missing for 28mil HH are on the way.. The only question really is the order in which they will release

It's from 4chan...

So exactly as reliable as whatever Valrak is posting then? He's not Harry, he's a youtuber, so long as people watch the videos accuracy is irrelevant and he clearly posts anything that drops into his inbox that's even vaguely plausible, and he definitely often...let's be charitable and say "significantly extrapolates" from any info he does have. Or are we forgetting the last time we were definitely about to see a new box for Heresy with plastic MK5 and an all-new melee dreadnought chassis?

Valrak's been right too much over the last few years (last I checked literally 99%+) for me to discount what he says.

Spoiler:

Hopefully that's 'wrong' as 4chan is...usually?

Because that's a really boring box...

Legit, or someone tries cheap tricks.

From 4chan too:

These rumours sound good to me.. which is of course suspicious and therefore likely not true

Seriously though, a TDA which is a mashup of Tartaros and Indomitus, properly truescaled, sounds great to me. Not too thrilled about needing to rebuy the Liber Astartes though.. As for the "new dreadnought loadout", is there something still missing from the plastics we have now?

I'm looking forward to a cleaned up version of the game. Maybe they will fix some of the weird bits...

Maybe Fury of the Ancients will finally be playable (without the death threats from across the tabletop).

Is this what you Earthlings refer to as "comedy"?

These rumours sound a bit less ‘out there’ than Valrak’s, and have the smell of authenticity (whatever that smells like). In particular, revised Mk4 just seems more likely than Mk2. I am in the minority which is fine with the scale of the Cataphractii, so I hope any new Termie armour is a new type and not a replacement. And Rapiers in plastic = awesome. But I agree that this version of the rumoured new boxed set doesn’t sound particularly exciting.

The biggest issue for me will be whether they tweak the rules to fix known issues and rephrase stuff that is badly written (which would be great), or revise them in the way they do with WH40k (bad, very bad).

iirc that basically sums up the Gorgon pattern termies? the forgeworld minis for them had basically Tartaros legs and lower arms, and Indomitus torso, shoulders, and heads. and the resin Gorgon termies have all gone out of stock on the warhammer store.

Yeah but Gorgon pattern is specifically an Iron Hands pattern so there's no reason why they'd include it unless all of a sudden they've changed it to be widespread to other legions. Which would be stupid.



For as loathe as I am to have to potentially buy another rulebook/liber, I wouldn't be as adverse to it if they fix some of the profiles/points costs for units. Bump the Contemptors up a bit (and maybe adjust it's stat line a smidge T6, Sv 3+), boost Tartaros units up to the same cost as their Cataphractii equivalents, as there's no reason at all that it should be cheaper. Price hike for lascannons in heavy support squads. Stuff like that.
