Wow, my Ignorant American card just auto-renewed... I don't recognize most of those time zones....

Seriously, maybe the release of some new HH kits might also be used with the upcoming 40k imperial knight codex coming in 2025.

Apparently for the rest of 2024, "Other factions lurk, waiting for the perfect moment to strike". That comes directly after the mention of Mechanicum, and elsewhere they said that 28mm Dark Mechanicum was "a long way off".

So I'm wondering what's left this side of Christmas, so late. They said "factions" so maybe a new book for Daemons or Militia models? I can only assume they'll announce it on Friday and probably go straight up for preorder the following Saturday - with then a two week window.

I'm assuming that the new edition of MESBG is itself is the big Christmas release?

The next release wave to be announced will be in stores on Dec 14th, and realistically it might only be that. For the following week I'm not expecting very much beyond a batch of MTO, as GW usually don't do major releases immediately before the holidays.

WarCom has previously said that DarkMech stalkers would be available before the end of the year, so LI is my first expectation. I think Necromunda also has unreleased stuff currently too? Necromunda / MESBG / LI all together is fairly plausible to finish off the year.

**PenitentJake**

I'm really hoping to see Krieg in the preview; I want a few hundred points of Guard for narrative shenanigans, and I've already got one unit of Krieg from KT, so that's what I'm looking to grow.

At the same time, managing expectations is the best plan. I had some high hopes for the guard, but I don't think many of them are going true.

And even if the preview IS guard, it might only be a unit or two. If it's a launch box for Krieg, we would see all of the units in the box... But that might not be all that's coming.

**nathan2004**

Likely for the Old World it will be Empire (teased as the next army to drop) and they will tell us what's being brought out of retirement hopefully the militia kit!

Well, they call it a "huge reveal" so I will expect them to deliver more than single characters or 3d renders.
Or its a pun on plastic warhound beeing huge, like they did with the mega gargants beeing "the biggest release of the year" and a "new massive army".

GW claims it's a "huge reveal" every time they fart, so don't get your hopes up too high here :

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Well, a smidgen over 8 hours to go.

I’m expecting this to be relatively substantial. Specifically because we’re coming up to the New Year, and roadmaps need fleshing out. Certainly for Age of Darkness, we have no detailed roadmap at all, as nothing has been announced that isn’t now released.

**lord_blackfang**

So I got up all excited to open WarCom aaand it's PM, not AM

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Y’daft ‘apporth.

Still, easy enough mistake to make.

**SamusDrake**

Well, at least we can now pass the time by ridiculing lord_blackfang's misfortune. But I'm off to see Wicked, so I'll have a dig when I get back.

**GaroRobe**

I am also sad. I thought the preview was next Friday, not today, until I opened this thread. Now I’m going to be waiting all day instead of being pleasantly surprised

**lord_blackfang**

F in the chat for all of us!

6 hours to go? At least I have a new printer to build in the mean time.

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

I’ve got work until four.

Except I hit 150% of target already, so not exactly inclined to acquiesce to do even more.

**Inquisitor Gideon**

Surprised they haven't put up any silhouettes up yet as a teaser.

Have they even released anything from the 40K roadmap since the last preview show?

We have a Heresy roadmap. I want to see pictures of the tanks. Krios and Karaknos probably, Sicaran variants and Aurox less likely, Felblade/Glaive and/or Baneblade+ variants wishfully

Interestingly the resin Falchion & Glaive are no longer listed on the GW UK site. Fellblade still is, but shows out of stock.

Only Blood Angels. And there wasn't anything else on it for this year.

Spoiler:

**NAVARRO**

Cannot wait for Votann reveals.

I mean, you'll have to wait at least 6 months. Sorry.

Not cool to burst peoples bubbles like that Dude.

**StudentOfEtherium**

talking with my girlfriend about the space marine baneblades being sold out/removed from the store, and also that we're due for a new heresy campaign book soon, so if the reveal is going to be those in plastic, she thinks it's likely for it to be Tallarn, which would also make sense for keeping AOD and LI in loose synchronicity

**lord_blackfang**

I for one hope it's not a plastic Fellblade hull, which is just a Baneblade with all the texture scraped off.

**Overread**

If we go by stuff soldout/removed from store then I would expecting HH to be chock full of Mechanicum based models considering several are sold out whilst at least 2 are using the very same core parts as existing plastic ones (in fact I was a little surprised GW didn't just make them duel kits)

**lord_blackfang**

90 minute warning, if I got time zones correct

**GaroRobe**

I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and assume the Black Library reveal will either be:

A model of the Harrowmaster that stole back the Pale Spear's tip (hence the rumor engine)

The last Bequin novel

The Scouring Series

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Right, laptop down, laundry done and put away, bed made, heating back on, and time enough to make Nachos, once my food shop has arrived.

Yep. I’m all set.

**SamusDrake**

Right. I'm back.

Apart from lord_blackfang getting the time wrong - sorry, I did promise a dig so I have to be true to my word - what did I miss? Anything before the reveals themselves?

**DaveC**

There's the silhouette image

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Deredeo, Arlatax, possibly Mounted Custard?
