What about Warhammer Quest? The next one should be 40k again and with the Space Hulk rumour that have been going around that don't actually seem to be for Kill Team they could be for Warhammer Quest instead?

Silver Tower was 2016, Blackstone Fortress was 2018, Cursed City was 2021 so could be time for another one

A Space Hulk themed warhammer Quest?

I wouldn't hate that. I'll probably hate the price I pay for it though!

I'd utterly love a Space Hulk Warhammer Quest so long as it was handled like Blackstone and not like Cursed City - which was a cursed release start to finish

This. GW is already juggling more balls than they can handle right now.

As much as I would love to get my hands on TOW today rather than tomorrow, with LI already massively delayed I do not see yet another game happening for some time. A new SH on the other hand would have the benefit of being a single product, without any need for follow-ups.


Well that's how they run their business. They've realised that new stuff sells better for no other reason than it's new so they've pushed their logistics past breaking point and now large parts of the range are out of stock on GW's own webstore or are being cycled in and out of print. It seems like the recent economic and supply chain issues has pushed it to a breaking point but they still aren't stopping since they know the new stuff must flow (Rather than say, making their kits more useful in terms of posing or kitbashing, making them so monopose I think is contributing to the obsession with new models) and will sacrifice the older kits in terms of not meeting demand for long periods. (At the end of the day they blew up WHF not because it didn't make a profit as a whole but because it didn't make enough of a profit and thus it represented an opportunity cost in terms of production resources)

BFG would require potentially only a few molds and then FW could cover the rest. All to create an entirely new game system. I'm not saying it will happen (I think it would be a shame too since the community making 3d printed models is pretty cool) but I don't think them having logistics problems would stop it. The new stuff must flow. You could even argue that having this and the new epic game are perfect to get some of the potential less hardcore more casual new fans of 40k from the Cavill show. It's not been long since the big (And ephemeral, particularly since the prices have become too great, particularly with the looming recession and general inflation) 2020 boom year and I suspect shareholders haven't fully gotten over the profit expectations from that time. The new stuff must flow...

GW has begun to deal with the supply delays by announcing or showing things a lot further in advance than they used to.

My first thought when I saw the Terminator was new Terminators. I had no second thought, because I want new Terminators.

Following Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress, GW is proud to present Warhammer Quest: The Curse of the Blackstone Pearl. What could possibly go wrong?

If it's really a new Warhammer Quest, it will be a packed preview. Seems a bit unlikely to me. Look up last years Nova Open preview and check how much stuff has been revealed there.

Most likely predictions:

Age of Sigmar – More Ironjawz models.

Underworlds – Based on the road map, must be the next two warband box.

Warcry – Based on road map, probably just the next warband.

Horus Heresy – Warhammer Instagram account just teased a new Dreadnought, likely the rumoured Deredeo. Maybe even the proposed box with the MkIII Marines and Land Raider Proteus, which should be out in Autumn based on the road map. So could be the full box, maybe just the Dreadnought.

Blood Bowl – No clue, maybe another star player? We didn't got a team in a while though.

The Old World – No clue, but we got a leaked Pegasus Knight. Last couple of reveals have been Brets, maybe something Tomb Kings?

That's already lots of stuff compared to last year's Nova reveal.

And it's a safe bet that we'll see some of the Marine reveals, the Warhammer Instagram hints at Terminators. Maybe it's just multipart Terminators?

I can't see them cram in another big box into all of that, especially when they reveal a potential Horus Heresy box.

Spoiler:

Oh look, it's hinting at another box of Bad Marines v Good Marines.

Anyways, maybe it's not Warhammer Quest at all...but rather a 40k version of Underworlds?

It's sounding as though some of this stuff is being brought forward a bit earlier as the release schedule adjusts to Epic being delayed. Could be that products originally intended for Oct/Nov will now be Sept/Oct instead, then LI finally releases in November.

Multipart termies are a go, bring it on! Been waiting for some detachable shoulderpads, as well as a targeter helmet for the new torsos..

PS anyone want to buy a NIB resin Deredeo (or two) from the EU? Just PM me

An underworlds 40k version is something I'd give a good go.

Almost like new Mk3 and the Deredeo were teased months ago and confirmed in the release schedule for autumn.
Absolutely insane that GW would tease models then do a full reveal of those models.

I'm up for a box of Bad Marines vs Good Marines if it's mostly new models.

Not for a long time, no. Guard Codex isn't even on the road map.

Unlikely tonight, but I definitely wouldn't be shocked to see them at some point during the next Kill Team season.

Agreed. Of course it's debatable how satisfactory a single squad box will be. Beats not getting anything. Beats using the old model even more so. But it hardly compares to a dedicated range of Catachans in the same way as Death Korps models exist in plastic but aren't exactly an alternative to making your army out of Cadians.

Here's hoping that the multi-part Terminators include at least some storm bolters with twin sickle magazines.

An updated version of the OG heavy flamer would be icing on the cake (YMMV).

Mixed up my times and thought the UK end of the stream was 9pm.

I vote that no streams should ever be on US times because it specifically irritates me.

Or at least have the 2am GMT reveal on a Friday so I can stay up and watch it without having to do stuff the next day

Am I right in thinking that they said that all of these new batches of codices were going to come with at least one model? Or was that way back in a 9th ed preview?

That is correct, current rumours are an imotekh(sp?) and a generic HQ for admech.
