The teaser we got for 8th edition has compared the Death Guard to some new faction. As we saw sneak peaks of the new Death Guard models, does anyone else think that it's possible that these new models will be part of the new starter set? As for the loyalists, what do you guys think? Is it a new chapter? Or, is it an established chapter like the Raven Guard? Let me know what you guys think!

I don't expect this thread will survive but here's the image...
I'd say it's Raven Guard vs Death Guard?

Please God NOT be Wolves, Blood or Dark Angels -
If it has to be Marines - any other First Founding (or other Chapter) would be massively welcome as it means new stuff for the more ignored ones and no new Crap "flavour" units for those Chapters.
On the other hand - something more than just Marines in the box would have been even more welcome.

Raven Guard do have a massive score to settle with the Death Guard, at least if the events of "Cadian Blood" are considered canon...

Looking at that, it could be Raven Guard - the background of that image looks somewhat like wings? Though that could just be wings of the typical Imperial aquila.
Also, I'm probably just seeing things, but the Space Marine looks a little blue? Not much to say though.

They have molded Ultramarine Emblems, so my guess is Ultramarines vs. Death Guard.

It's certainly a little blue-green, but black and dark grey tends to be shaded with other colours in art to create atmosphere.
What interests me more is that the helmet looks to be MKIV, though it could also just be that the new armour's helmet style is reminiscent of MKIV.

Sure makes it looks like Smurfs v Death Guard.
Also seems to confirm that Numarine leaked image.
