Homage To The Great Horned Rat: New GW Rumor Engine

Rumor Engine new GW header wal horThis new Games Workshop rumor engine preview looks like it could be part of a new Sylvaneth model, but is it actually Skaven?

Whatever the case may be, we can’t wait to see what Games Workshop has in store when it’s finally revealed. Let’s check out what it could be and try to guess until then! 

Homage To The Great Horned Rat: New GW Rumor Engine

Here’s the latest GW Rumor Engine from Games Workshop. As usual, there are some interesting possibilities for what it could be!

Looking at this bit, we can see what would normally be a clear-cut Sylvaneth bit. But GW had this to say:

With a sizzling new edition of Warhammer Age of Sigmar on its way, there’s bound to be loads of cool miniatures just waiting to appear in the Rumour Engine. We’re expecting something ratty this time, but our success rate for predicting what comes out is hovering around 0%.

That means while Sylvaneth is on the table, GW, having some fun, does throw a bone in the direction of Skaven!

Made to Order Skaven 2

If this isn’t an elaborate double bait, this is most likely a staff for one of the many Skaven mages or maybe a new Verminlord/king variant model!

In case you missed last week’s Rumor Engine, like us, here it is below!

A Skull Driver: New GW Rumor Engine

Those little servos deserve more minis! We think this one is super clear: Imperium of Man, either a Servo Skull-dedicated mini or simply one accompanying a new miniature!

Plenty of Ad Mech minis have Servo Skulls accompanying them, but with the engine bit sporting a weapon, this might be the turning point for them to get a new solo chaff-like unit. Still, though… who knows? Curve balls do happen!  We will have to wait and see!
