General Strike Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 It's possible that they will just be updated models, besides the Primarch. So new zerkers and new Khorne Chaos Terminators with Angron. Just give them combi weapons and power axes, and access to all the same stuff with conversions.

Urriak Urruk Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 If I may speculate... We won't see The Lion until Forge World releases theirs. Same goes for the rest of the Loyalist primarchs, which means either Russ, Corax or Vulkan would be more likely next. I'd say Russ, as another Primarch for C:SM would step on Guilliman's toes and really annoy the players of non-codex chapters. I also do not expect Emperor's Children or World Eaters to get their own codex until after all the current armies are updated. They have rules in the very recent Chaos Marine codex. Unless said codex gets redone without those two legions (again, annoying the CSM players), I bet Fulgrim and Angron would just get added in. I have no proof for any of this...just going off recent releases and trying to put 2 and 2 together and not get 5. Well Magnus' daemon model was actually released before his FW one. Of course, FW and greater GW actually lined up their releases pretty effectively then so that Thousand Sons, Burning of Prospero, Leman's model, Magnus' model, all of these releases being within reach of each other. So maybe the Lion's return will be around the same time Angelus drops? That would be some smart marketing. It would also mean he's not due for at least a year.

jwr Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Oh, I hope it's Fulgrim and Angron. I'm not a Chaos player, but they sure do need some love.

Urriak Urruk Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 As if Christmas wasn’t exciting enough! You can pre-order your White Dwarf tomorrow, while the rest of these releases will be on their way throughout December. Make sure you come back to Warhammer Community on Saturday for a closer look at these releases and even more reveals – there’s one, in particular, you won’t want to miss. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/11/23/revealed-new-warhammer-holiday-season/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/339977-which-primarch-is-next-or-will-it-be-two/page/11/#findComment-4939030 Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Strike Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Ooooh I didn't catch that the first time. I wonder what it could be? Maybe a Primarch, but also maybe another Grombindle guy.

Sete Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Its the new Black Templar codex obviously. (Or they are announcing Sisters. Yeah I went there.

Guest Triszin Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 They are probably going to show off the next primarch me guess Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/339977-which-primarch-is-next-or-will-it-be-two/page/11/#findComment-4939385 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rik Lightstar Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 It's Grombrindal as one of the missing Primarchs, with a combined Squats and Sisters Codex and a full range of plastics for both.

b1soul Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I think it might make more commercial sense for GW to save the Lion and Russ (two very popular sales-drivers) for a time when they really need a sales boost. Maybe slowly bring back some of the other primarchs first. Jaghatai, Corax, and Vulkan.

Guest Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I think GW might be pushing releases based on story rather than based on sales. I can almost guarantee Angron would have been a better seller than Mortarion, yet the story demanded Mortarion.

I can almost guarantee Angron would have been a better seller than Mortarion, yet the story demanded Mortarion. I mean this with all due respect to the sculptors (who actually decide what to do), but that literally couldn't be less true. "Here's a model." --> "Okay, time to make rules and lore for it." --> Release. The story didn't demand Mortarion. Mortarion was coming, and that demanded a story.

Extremely disapointing but extremely unsurprising. 8th Edition has been the low point, fluff-wise, in my 40K experience. So I guess it’s inevitable that the Necrons will show up and revive him with a Ctan shard, an Ork Doc and Fabius Bile, who’s been working on the next big thing in Super-Dooper Super Marines.... Still calling Angron as next.

Corswain Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Apparently they may have been confused and meant the Lion. But that goes against current GW fluff too so it’s anyone’s guess.

lordhellblade Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Sons of Dorn book could be easily justifiable. 3 Chars from BT, 1 From IF and one from CF. Add Dornaught, and I assume with the chapter reverting to legion organization, Chapter specific troops will pop op. Love to see that. Plus we could get Breachers and give the Templars back their Sword Brethren. Lore wise we could see the return of the IF companies being named after the walls of Imperial palace like they were in The Beast Arises. Some of the Primaris Marine were around when Dorn was fisting.
