If you were at the GW preview at Adepticon 2019 then you heard more than was published online. Don’t miss these underground Q&A session reveals from one month ago!
You probably remember the Slaanesh support previews or Apocalypse announcement from Adepticon 2019, but did you catch everything? Make sure you take a closer look at what was talked about between the GW team and hobbyists in a private seminar from Adepticon.
Word From the Adepticon Seminar
Coming from Sepulchre of Heroes, we’ve got a first-hand look at what went down at the seminar. From Primaris to Warcry, to Warhammer Adventures, we’ve got a lot that we can possibly look forward to.
Warhammer 40k:
- There’s no new word on any Emperor’s Children Marines (Noise Marines)
- Primaris Flyers were brought up but GW said “that it sounded like a cool idea”. That’s probably GW’s code talk for something being in the works already.
- They are still working on a 40k list-building app. (No word on any official dates. )
- No new Primarchs are under development (as far as we know). We doubt GW would tell us a Primarch is coming to 40k. They’d probably rather just drop a bomb.
- Games Workshop is looking into developing 40k datacards (similar to Warscroll cards in AoS).
- No word on multipart kits for Shadowspear units outside of what has been released.
- New Kill Team Starter is being worked on.
- All of the new Slaanesh characters will get 40k rules.
- No news on chaos Astra Militarum We’re seeing more Traitor Guard appear out of Blackstone Fortress, so could it be a matter of time?
- Apocalypse will have “formations” as the basic unit instead of squads.
GW’s Other Skirmish Games
- The Warcry box looks to be centered around Slaves to Darkness.
- More Warhammer Adventures support could be coming depending on survey feedback…
Age of Sigmar:
Archaic and terrible weapons, the spirits of ancient warriors, timeless relics – in Forbidden Power, you’ll join the hunt for these bygone treasures, seeking to claim them for your own.
Forbidden Power models themed around the Realm of Death
- You don’t need Malign Sorcery to use the newly-previewed forbidden powers.
- Carrion Empire minis won’t be back any time soon, but the two characters are coming outside of the box.
- Island of blood models will not likely be made available separately.
- No news on Dispossessed
Games Day will likely NOT be coming back here in the states. Gw said they would rather help existing events.
So what do you think GW could have kept from the community? Do you think they already have more Primaris vehicles in the works? Who do you think the next Primarch will be? Let us know in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group.
