Smoke Detected: This Week’s Rumor Engine
Smoke is filling up the air again with this rumor engine. Take a look and make your guesses as to what it could be!

We are actually in a drought for previewed bits right now. The last previews were from a few weeks ago when we saw the Skitarii Dunestrider.
Latest Confirmed Rumor Engine Releases:
June 11, 2019
Classic Ironjawz Engineering: GW Rumor Engine
We originally thought that the bit belonged to some kind of Iron Jawz unit. However, this brand new Ogor character was previewed holding the bit as the tip of his spear. (At least we were right about the Destruction part).
While the only new bit that was spotted in the previews came from the new Ogor character, we’re still hoping that we will see more again soon. There’s no denying that we’ve got a lot in store for us in AoS and 40k so keep those eyes peeled!
Do you think you have any other bits pegged? Are you looking forward to Aos or 40k releases more? Let us know in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group, and sign up to get your free hobby updates newsletter each morning as well!
