Updated Based on new leaks:

So it's certain we'll get these units, looking likely we'll have these units, and a reasonable assumption we'll get these units:

HQ:
Kharn (potentially a new model)
Daemon Prince
Chaos Lord
Generic Jugger Lord
Named Jugger Lord, potentially the named lord the leaker suggests is a Brazen Beast named character, Lord Invictus
Terminator Lord, the leaker says no Termi Lord
Some kind of priest, potentially just a Dark Apostle, any kind of priest marked absent by leaker
Master of Executions, included by leaker as an HQ, but admits it was an older playtest codex, so may have been moved to elite, like CSM

Troops:
Khorne Berzerkers
Some kind of non-marine Khorne-specific troop, potentially Khorngors, potentially one of the two breeds of Khorne specific possessed unitsthe leaker spoke of
Cultists

Elites:
Helbrute
Possessed, leaker says no access to CSM possessed
Khorne specific possessed unit, one of two, this one 'like 8 bloodletters shoved into one marine
Red Butchers, leaker says no new terminator unit

Fast Attack:
Chaos Spawn

Heavy Support:
Land Raider
Predator
Maulerfiend
Forgefiend
Defiler
Vindicator
Slaughterbrute

Transports:
Rhino (because how could they not?)

Flyers:
Heldrake

Lord of War:
Angron
Lord of Skulls

That terminator is the year 2 Warhammer Plus model, so won't be in the codex. At best, it'll get a datasheet of its own so it can be used in games, but will probably be a named character if so.

Ah ok. Updated.

Here you go.

That's amazing! I wish more of Mark Gibbons' old art got turned into models this good!

Kargos Bloodspitter when?!

That is badass. I don't want wh plus but I might put a down payment on an annual just to get him.

Kharn just got a recent redo.

C'mon, at this point it's not even TS treatment. It's even worse. At this rate EC will be a plastic upgrade sprue for Noise marines and that's it.

I'm ok with that being Warhammer+ exclusive.

Dont like the terminator, gun looks very stupid

Right?! I want the Chosen of Abaddon to all get models now.

Got a source/link for that?

If that's the only Khorne Terminator we're getting then that's pretty damned sad for WE.

Yeahhhhh, the WE release seems pretty anemic if this is the initial offerings model wise. Looks like they're banking on the Angron centerpiece to anchor the WE solo-army debut, which is disappointing.

They do have to leave something for the 10th edition World Eater Codex. Due in 1Q 2023.

The model is so faithful to the art and actually managed to make it enjoyable as a mini, I think it's a fantastic release, I wasn't expecting that
Well, I know what model I'll chose for my 2nd year of subscription

That's where they give them a single monopose HQ choice that's locked into a 300$ box for half a year.

Hmm, I swear I saw it with the other leaks. There are a few deleted post on that thread. Either way, I'll change the post so as not to freak people out prematurely

That new model looks great. I'm wondering if that gun is a combi-bolter or some kind of shotgun. About the leaks, I highly doubt that their will be no Terminator models, as all the other god-specific Legions got them, and also Red Butchers have a very distinct look to them. I really hope that Possessed can be used, as they are prominent in the World Eaters.

I think it's just a combi-bolter. I was really hoping they wouldn't 'modernise' the original design and keep the big "pipe" design for his gun. Glad they kept it.

Why do people think they won't get Terminators?
Of course they will get Terminators.

Because GW's gonna GW, because people saw how weirdly and inconsistently the new Chaos Codex handled some options, and because the Thousand Sons release was also extremely tiny.

Yeah seems we're getting Possessed+ instead of cool new Terminators.

That terminator's combi-bolter looks quite large-bore. I have to wonder if the rules for him will have with nonstandard rules. Something like S6, rapid fire2, AP -2, or something like that.

I like the list - makes logical sense.

On Kharn, The model is still pretty recent so it seems unlikely to me that he'd be replaced this quickly - especially given if they have a charracter production slot free they could drop in a new character and pretty much guarantee that any WE player will buy both. Are there any notable non-Kharn WE characters from the books that survive the HH?

They're gonna wanna put sub factions (or more properly sub-sub-factions) into this already 1 dimensional army ain't they? What could they possibly do?

Stone Cold Blood Killahs - The Stone Cold Blood Killahs believe that Khorne wants to them to come to grips with the enemy as soon as possible, they add 6" to the move of every unit.

Stone Cold Skull Killahs - The Stone Cold Skull Killahs believe that Khorne does not want to wait for them to come to grips with the enemy and wants to them to kill the enemy at range. They add 6" to the range of every shooting weapon.

Stone Cold Death Killahs - The Stone Cold Death Killahs are all like, why not both yo? They add 3" to their move AND 3" to weapon ranges.

Sadly, I can guarantee these rules will be better and easier to use than whatever GW puts in the codex. Including the names.

WHAT!!!!, WHAT!!!!, WHAT!!!!.... Give me a "Hell Yeah!"

All the years of looking at that picture and I never noticed he had the Khorne rune on his head. I miss old GW artwork like this. You keep finding new stuff everytime you look at it.

The model. I want to like it. I do like it. I'll never pay the scalper price or get a WH+ sub for it. I'm sure the 3-D print homages will be out soon for it though. Again GW nice looking model. I'll give credit where it's due and this is really faithful to the artwork. I so do love Mark Gibbons old GW art work.

I'd love to have the two techpriests that are talking infront of the genestealer head and other old Techpriests as models. the creepier and most disturbing they are the better.

Ofc the name is bonk as hell....but you can't win them all right? I can call him whatever I like.

That's a nice looking model, shame it's a WH+ exclusive, don't see me getting it. Do you have to be subscribed for the full year to get it?

Yeah, you either have to sub for a full year subscription and then you get it a month later, or you have to sub for 12 consecutive months and you get it after you've paid for your 12th month.

Kossolax the Forsworn comes to mind.

I wonder if you could just sub one month to get access to the "buy more" option and get them, or if that option is too locked for the one year sub...
Anyway, the real pro tips here is to find a patsy that is subbed and have them buy an extra for you, that's what I'll do for the vindicar (even managed to just trade it with another exclusive I had as extra) and I'll probably do the same for that one too.

I hope this leak is wrong and well get at least ONE daemon engine on top of the chaff/marine/terminator combo. Even if it's yet another "minor" version of the cool FW stuff. Hell, I'd LOVE for GW to give us the Kaythan upgrade kit in platic since adding new sprue to kits seems to be their new gimick these days.

I just realized something, it looks like GW at the time may have based the design of their Lord Zhufor, the legs and the rest reminds me of it.

He is also one of thos characters I could see GW bring back in plastic for that new WE codex (but looking at the 2 other legions, GW doesn't seem to care to much about giving more than a primarch and posterboy to thos armies..).

I'm starting to think that we may at least get a proper terminator lord for the WE, and one that is in indomitus rather than cataphracii like the red butchers.
