gerater-good-psychic-awakeningNew Sisters of Battle and Tau Commander Shadowsun were just spotted in previews that were leaked from Games Workshop’s New Years Open day!

Games Workshop announced on their Facebook that they would be previewing something both Great and Good at tomorrow at their Open Day preview:

Psychic Awakening (Obviously)

As we only waited about a week for the Blood of Baal after the Faith and Fury release, we should be seeing these books revealed one behind the other in the coming months.

GW Previews More On New Primaris Captain Model

And while we’ve already covered in great detail what could be in store for us, we’ve decided to include it in this post once again because there’s actually still a lot of grey area on what factions there will be. Obviously, The Greater Good sounds like Tau (which is pretty much just confirmed below) and Saga of the Beast sounds like Space Wolves, but who will they be fighting- Orks?

That’s a question that is left to be answered. To tack another question on, which faction will be getting those coveted new model releases?

Looks close at the Tau symbol here folks. is there another symbol perhaps under it… a cog maybe? Or is it just a glitch in the matrix?

New Tau Shadowsun, Sisters of Battle & More Spotted

Well, that didn’t take long. Looks like Warhammer Community’s site was datamined for the header image for Saturday’s open day preview. Behold what looks to be the main topic of the previews, Tau, Sisters, and more Beastgrave.

Tau Shadowsun, Sisters of Battle

So it looks like we’ll be seeing the Sisters of Battle Mortifiers (the Sisters version of the Pertinent Engine), Ogres in Beastgrave, and a new Shadowsun for Tau!

Official previews all kickoff soon…

Which are you looking forward to the most? What do you think lies ahead for the factions coming inside of Greater Good? Will Guard and Ad Mech get some support?
