...upgrade sprue for the Sanguinary Guard to give them their flaming wings back.

Ah, so we have.

I'm going to guess that it's not attached to a bird.

Nor is it for the Leagues if Votann... or Tyranids or Skaven or Necrons or Tomb Kings or Dark Eldar or Catachans or Grey Knights or Sisters of Silence or Ogre Kingdoms or Vampire Counts or Death Guard or the Adeptus Titanicus or the Adeptus Mechanicus.

I will go with cherub wings. Looks like a close match in style and size.

The word ‘trident’ comes from the ancient Greek words ‘trid’ and ‘ent’. No one knows what they mean, but it’s probably something to do with the handle. Either way, the owner of this fierce implement must be an absolute hit at barbecues. Who grills with an ‘ent’ like this?

Hmm. Not sure if AoS or 40K styling?

Didn't we see a HH power spear in this style last year and everyone was saying Alpha Legion?

You mean from 19.11?



Details look different to me... Main thing that confuses me are the nails... or whatever... Beside that I would have said Idoneth.

Yeah, I thought the haft seemed similar but now that I see it again, I can see the spear has a little square under the blade while the trident has a little triangle under the tines. My addled memory thought they both had the little triangle.

The Old World just got previewed a high elf with a trident, but different style. But seaborne revers are a thing in that setting…

Idoneth. The timeframe seems right with them a few books along now.

would be very cool if this was idoneth. the little nubs made me think a power weapon, but hoping it's idoneth

It's bait! Don't fall for it!

I don't think it's Idoneth, unless it's for a lone character who does things so much differently than every other fish elf in a similar vein as the lone Kroot hunter. Serrated trident obviously leads to evil fish elves, but the serrations on existing weapons are markedly different to what we see here. And looking through the range I haven't found any use of rivets like on the trident.

I don't think it's a power weapon either because they usually have exposed wires leading to the nubs. That doesn't preclude it from being a 40k weapon, of course.

Zero design in common with IDK.

Gonna be something unguessable like a Necromunda merc.

Its a trident. Watery guys like tridents. Therefore its an oblique reference to Warhammer: the Old World - Raiders and Pirates featuring: Vampire Coast zombie pirates, Black Ark Raider forces, and at long last, Fishmen!

Pusgoyle Blightlords have tridents, the winged stormcast too, and I'd assume idoneth. Not sure it matches any of them, though

I'm going with my usual guess of not Leagues of Votann.

Will the Pan-Fo also be reviled?

That's a name i haven't heard in a long time.

I won’t believe it until it’s posted on Portents.

I’m sure Barpharanges will make a cool conversion.

New Khorne unit for 40K. Similar to scouts, but with a much more gladiator theme to them.

Or Lilith from Dark Aeldar/ new combined Aeldar starting a new cult/aspect

We should also consider that this may not be a trident but the silverware of the Culinary Colossus, the token model Sons of Behemat get with their next battletome.

Wych Impaler, because hope dies last.

I'm gonna go "out there" and say Necromunda: Sump Sea character or new gang.

I don't know why...... It just looks Necromunda to me.

They always were, but thats for 40k

Tho now you mention it, the Fimir are due for a resurgence.

Kharadron Overlords? Seems like there's some matching design details:

That’s a bloody good eye you’ve got there!

Can't take full credit, someone pointed it out to me! Couldn't unsee it afterwards.

If a perfectly good Fishmen tease turns out to sky dwarfs I will never forgive them.

Well the sky dwarves will need tridents to hunt the sky fishmen from their skyboats. All is not lost…
