Marshal Reinhard Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 He has been pretty adamant about that. Ghaz vs Ragnar even. Apparently anyway, I only refer to what others have said that he's said.

betrayer41 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Weren’t the French rumors Orks vs Wolves? Yes and i like this much better than a wolves vs tsons rehash. I would love to see a CSM vs CSM set. Not sure which of the 4 gods hates the other but that would be cool Doctor Perils 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357547-pyschic-awakening-speculation/page/22/#findComment-5400384 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see a CSM vs CSM set. Not sure which of the 4 gods hates the other but that would be cool The main rivalries are Khorne-Slaanesh and Tzeentch-Nurgle, but considering that there has already been a relatively recent release with the first pairing, and that both Nurgle and Tzeentch already have their CSM legion codex, it seems rather unlikely. Then again, a World Eaters vs. Emperor's Children boxset would probably sell like hotcakes. betrayer41 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357547-pyschic-awakening-speculation/page/22/#findComment-5400386 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Loss Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Has Kikasstou elaborated any further on the CSM facing the Black Templars, if he's actively sharing information about the latter?

Sete Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Just the BT rules from what i have seen. He has not adressed my question about the EC. Well its a 50/50 chance for now.

Doctor Perils Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 The main rivalries are Khorne-Slaanesh and Tzeentch-Nurgle, but considering that there has already been a relatively recent release with the first pairing [...] Well that's already 10 or more months ago, and by the time we get to that in PA in could well be a full year. And since their Aeldari civil war doesn't seem like its going to touch Slaanesh in any way shape or form (fair enough, it deserves its own book imo) then perhaps a WE vs EC could be a good idea. A bit of a shame if it's not Armageddon and one between ECs and IH or Eldar... perhaps the SoB one though? Or could be Blood Angels vs Blood Devils :devil: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357547-pyschic-awakening-speculation/page/22/#findComment-5400424 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 (edited) Concerning book 3 : Will be BA against Tyranids next year (around spring apparently) Again? After Shield of Baal and the conclusion with Devastation of Baal it's honestly becoming a bit boring... EDIT: also spring seems very early for the third segment. If every segment is just a single book it still means a book every 2-3 months. For something that's supposed to be as important as the Horus Heresy and the 13th Black Crusade that feels pretty rushed if true.

Bryan Blaire Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 At that pace, I'm not sure how many models would actually make a debut with a book - maybe a single kit and character or some such, at best - the box with the Sisters may be the largest release this'll see.

Wolves showdown. But then again if he's saying there's gonna be more than four books, maybe Zone 4 and Volume 4 aren't related. Which would also be weird because Zone 3 and Volume 3 clearly are.

Marshal Loss Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 End of November!?! Oh daaaaamn. That would be sweet if I get some new CSM stuff out of it. That being said, I was kind of hoping for campaign stretching over a longer irl timespan than the ET/GS style books, which didn't feel that big because it was just bam bam bam and then "here's your new status quo", at least imo.

betrayer41 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 (edited) So.....im a bit confused...do we think this is going to be just a bunch of warzones or is there some big ish unifying theme/threat here? Because if there is a bigger picture and we do have more books past 4 i have no problem with rapid fire release.

Because if there is a bigger picture and we do have more books past 4 i have no problem with rapid fire release. Doesn't Kikasstou's latest post say "many more than four books"? Unless there's some serious translation malfunction there, it seems he's pretty confident that this will be longer. As for Psychic Awakening's different locations being interconnected or not... Probably? That's how they've been playing it these last few years, with things like Malign Portents. Various, separate events and conflicts that ultimately are all connected in one way or another to a big climax, in that case Nagash's Necroquake. I assume that even if the Eldar are fighting each other, the Black Templars and Sisters are fighting Chaos, the Blood Angels fighting Nids and Wolves fighting Orks, which all seem pretty disparate, they'll spin a narrative to connect the, all, even if to a suplerfluous level. But we still know basically nothing about the narrative, size, timeline, etc. of Psychic Awakening. All we know is that Yvraine has dreams/visions about other Eldar feeling the call to join her cause against Slaanesh, and that Jain Zar and Drazhar are fighting. But we don't really know why, besides the fact that Dark Eldar are like that and things we can assume from established lore, but we have no idea of the reason behind this conflict or what's at stake. Hopefully this Friday's preview will shed some light on things? Or they'll pick up the pace soon, as I suspect they might announce the preorder this Sunday.

Panzer Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Well maybe they just establish the four regions and then add more to them later on. At least I hope so.

DeadFingers Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 It could be that the four regions found on the site are just the first four and they'll add more as time goes on. They had to be found digging through code, after all, so it might well be that they didn't add everything. In fact we know there are things missing, since Valrak could only find another icon, instead of one for each map. Or it could be that these four maps are what we get but the initial position marked by the icon is not the only one for each map. The first one could move up into the Tau Empire, further into Ultramar, or as far as Necron turf, the second one could easily drift towards Armageddon or closer to Terra, the third one closer to the Cicatrix, and the fourth one move towards the Rock or even Catachan.

Marshal Rohr Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I’m wondering if the first four regions are not part of the same ‘Act’ of the Awakening. I.E. all of this together is the Phoenix Rising.

DeadFingers Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 That's a possibility too, but region 3 being Baal and Kikasstou saying Volume 3 is about Blood Angels is too coincidental, methinks.
