New 40k 10th edition rumors are here, this time for the starter box, when Tyranids are getting a rework, and new Terminators!
The rumors for 10th edition have been flowing in, and there are a bunch of them this time. People have been waiting for a long time to see a big model update for Tyranids, and from the sounds of this, it’s not that far off! Not only that, but the source of these rumors has also supposedly seen the new Terminators. Lastly, more info has been spotted about the new starter, so there is plenty to catch up on!
Before we jump into the rumors, just remember they are rumors! So take them with as much salt as you need. Because no matter how credible they seem, nothing is actually confirmed until GW posts it! With that in mind, let’s check out the latest rumors.
RUMORS: New 40k 10th Edition Starter Box, Terminators, & Tyranids!
These rumors come from this Valrak video, and he says this is all from a trusted source. A lot of this seems to line up with ther previous ones too!
We’ll start with Tyranids and the starter box. First, a lot of people are looking at June as the launch of 10th edition, and that means a giant new starter box!
In the box will be Space Marines and Tyranids. We’ve extensively discussed all the possible new Space Marines units (which you can check out here) but haven’t heard as much about the Tyranids. However, from the sounds of it, they will be getting as much love as the Necrons did when they were in Indomitus (the 9th edition starter set), meaning huge model reworks, new codex, and even new units!
They really need an overhaul as some of their units are quite old. So far, they have heard that Biovores, Lictors, possibly Genestealers, and Pyrovores. We’ve seen some rumor engines supporting this, but we’ll have to wait for something new to release to be sure.
More On the Return of Lion El ‘Jonson
Next up, the Lion is supposedly returning in 10th edition; we’ve also seen a ton of rumors about him. So, you can check out more rumors about Lion’el Johnson here, but according to the latest, he will also be getting a new book perhaps similar to the named Ark of Omens books.
New Space Marines Terminators
Lastly, new Terminators models may also be coming soon! From these rumors, they will not be Primaris; they will stay firstborn and just scaled up and retooled.
These new models will be chunkier, so they stand up to Primaris scale better, and also, they will also be in the 10th edition box! Lastly, we got a rumored statline for them from Bolter and Chainsword.
4W – S4 – T5 – 3A – 2+/4++ Sv.
We’ll have to see how it plays out, but these are some interesting rumors!
