How do!

So we now have an itenerary for Warhammerfest previews. And there’s a fair few.

I’m hype for 40K and Heresy myself.

**Malika2**

Wait…no Epic? Lol

**Olthannon**

Can't wait to see what the Old World releases will be. I just want confirmation of a release date, even if it is 2024.

Looking forward to the whole thing.

**beast_gts**

FYI, they've confirmed they will be streamed -

If you’re not at Warhammer Fest yourself, we will be live-streaming the reveals from the previews themselves on our Twitch channel, and covering all the news here on warhammer-community.com.

Guess they had to pay the life support bills for Horus Heresy

It's TOO BIG to fit on the ad.

if epic comes back it should just be rolled in to titanicus

**Shadow Walker**

40k - the big box.
Warcry - probably the already leaked ones.
AoS - Malerion elves?
KT - Genestealers vs Admech?
Old World - Brets, even a single new model?
HH - Assault Marines?

They could still squeeze a short teaser in anywhere, for example in the Horus Heresy slot. There's no Black Library Symbol in there as well, but i guess they'll be present in some form, they'll just not get their own dedicated stream, or Forgeworld for that matter. They'll sit under some umbrella.

What i find worrying though is that there is nothing for Necromunda... that game needs more support and hype.

**Snord**

I hate to be a pessimist, but I’m betting no plastic assault infantry for HH will be announced.

I can see assault marines, with the despoiler resins for the people who dont want to buy jetpack bodies just for melee arms

**Matrindur**

40k will be the big box
Warcry leaked box
Underworlds next team and maybe another roadmap
Age of Sigmar more cities or Flesh eater courts
HH hopefully something about future infantry
Old World maybe a release date?
Kill Team will be interesting since it should be the start of a new season

**nathan2004**

OLD WORLD!!!!

**tauist**

If Epic will be teased (unlikely but possible), it will be under the Horus Heresy brand no doubt. There hasn't been any rumours indicating Epic relaunch wouldn't be 30K rather than 40K related. However I reckon the actual HH reveals themselves will be something else. I'd love it to be new plastic infantry but am not getting my hopes up just yet, seeing as they backpedaled to "only books and resin stuff for now"

Getting a glimpse of KT21S3 will be interesting! Also might mean that Gallowfall will hit preorder before WHF, so that they can get S2 out of the way before the event.

**Sarouan**

Well, we'll have the full reveal of the next Warcry box and the small box previously leaked.

I don't expect much from the Old World, I doubt it will be more than another teaser.

Honestly, it's better to drop that dead horse. It won't be revealed at Warhammer Fest, Valrak was bullshitting this whole affair from the beginning.

**Flashman**

No Blood Bowl. Boooooo!

**Sgt. Cortez**

Interested in what the new mesbg campaign book will be. Also easterling dragons, they need to get these out before all 3rd party producers do

**EviscerationPlague**

Is that for this Saturday?

Rings of Power™ tie-in game, with all the fan-favourite characters like... that one dude or... the other one.

No, Saturday next week.

There has been 0 actual information about Epic.

GW has directly stated that there is upcoming plastic HH infantry. I dont recall them saying "only books and resin stuff" at any point.

They actually said nothing about anything leading to Epic. It was all rumors and hypothesis based on things some people thought was leading to an Epic reveal.

And we do have nothing officially or directly stated as well on plastic Epic infantry. As long as I'm concerned, it could be adamantium miniatures.

And don’t worry, more plastic infantry is in production – the Age of Darkness isn’t just about tanks!

**Sarouan**

My bad, I thought you were talking about Epic plastic infantry, not HH infantry.

**The Phazer**

I don't think we have any rumours left for Kill Team now do we?

It would make sense for Genestealers to be in there.

And I'm actually amazed we've not had a dedicated Marine sprue yet. Tyrannic War vets to go with the new box (which seem to be more generic vets).

Edit: Oh, I guess Inquisitorial retinue isn't out of the question either? Especially given the hints from AOO.

Not entirely correct, we have Valrak rumours about a set or even the season being called 'Ashes of Faith' and including a chaos cultist/ dark communion killteam.

A fresh video talks box sets and possible new armies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2lfolNIg-4

- Apparently a combat/boarding patrol box for Imperial Agents is on the way, including an Eversor assassin, Rogue Trader + retinue and Navis breachers True
- Codex: Imperial Agents probably coming in 10th Pending
- Says a lot of 10th starter box rumours are fake; wants to check with sources he trusts, video to come probably next week
- Primaris Chapter Command box is in the works, contents unclear according to sources he trusts Pending
- Kill Team: new box called 'Ashes of Faith' with possibly chaos cultists Dark Commune against an unspecified enemy, possibly Exodites Pending
- Beastmen are coming for Kill Team and getting 'lots of love' - could also be in the 'Ashes of Faith' box instead of Dark Commune, not clear yet True
- Warhammer World open day will reveal Farsight, the 4th AoO book, possibly some of the stuff above True

Fair enough, I'd missed them!

I'd actually be stupidly interested in some Dark Communion. Would make sense against Inquisitors too.

**Fayric**

I think the Horus Heresy/Old World fusion will be weird.
Feels like I have already seen some AI generated art of that.

**Fergie0044**

Happy days, there has been a real drought of MESBG news lately. Hopefully it will be a new sourcebook and not just a RotK MTO announcement

**Malika2**

Some Eldar Exodites would be pretty sweet. But would dino riding knights fit in the whole vibe of boarding actions that Kill Teams seems to be all about lately?
