GW’s New Rumor Engine Has More Dakka

A new rumor engine is finally here this morning and we have two guesses that are the polar opposite. Help us figure out what we’re looking at.

Warhammer Community just dropped the latest rumor engine this morning and we aren’t sure what it could be. Let’s break down what we think it is and maybe you’ll agree.

In case you missed it, be sure to check out last week’s rumor engine as well. We’ve got exciting times ahead as the Orks codex is right around the corner. On top of that, more factions will be getting the spotlight in months to come.

What are we looking at exactly? It may sound strange but oddly enough, we can see two different things here. It would help a ton if the bit was painted but GW knows this. As for our guesses, we think it’s either a really spikey tail/spine or an ammo belt absolutely loaded with dakka.

Yes, we realize that those two things are completely opposite of each other.

Now that we’re just now beginning to see Slaanesh support, maybe this could be another model in the works for the Chaos god.

If the rumor engine bit is an ammo belt for da Orks, it would’ve made sense for us to see this it a few months back before Orktober. We all know there’s no faction that does dakka better than Orks.

To throw even more questions into the mix, what game could it be for? Is this something for AoS or 40k? Do you see any dead giveaways to the race/faction this bit could belong to?

Let us know what you think it could be in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group.
