DeadFingers Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Alright, so now we know what it is, a campaign/narrative event. So here are my two cents: - With Sisters arriving shortly, this means that the last Codex that wasn't taken to 8th is done. This means that they now have green light to start doing anything they want, from Codices to models. We already know plastic Howling Banshees are a thing, there might be more Eldar in the oven. They can tackle other factions in need like Guard, Nids and Orks too. And to top it off, they can start introducing new armies if they want. This can be anything from Ynnari to Emperor's Children, Lost and the Damned, Tau Auxiliaries/Kroot, etc. The gate's open now. - With so many factions involved in this campaign, and the tone of the little video they've done, it strikes me as unlikely that it'll be centered around one planet/system like Vigilus was. This sounds bigger, more like a collection of conflicts across the galaxy. We might see something similar to Gathering Storm, a narrative from multiple fronts that interlace as the story progresses. - If Gathering Storm and Vigilus have been of any indication, GW like to punctuate their campaigns with releases. From big, named characters to entire armies. I expect this to receive the same treatment.

BitsHammer Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) well, im pretty sure they just teased corax Teased? They just showed off his model: My first thought is that he definitely looks emo enough to be a son of Corax with that haircut. Regarding the campaign, I noticed that I didn't see any cogs for the Ad Mech to get anything in the update. New codex coming instead?

DeadFingers Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I don't think that qualifies as a tease, seems like just a joke. Then again they're incredibly cheeky when it comes to videos, so who knows. Although considering he's basically a Warp-thing of shadow and darkness, it'd be hilarious if he's the next to show up.

DeadFingers Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Some extra speculation. At the end of the video, the Inquisitor says "Rise or fall, this fate shall not be mankind's alone", while an Eldar rune burns in front of her. Now this is not a random rune, it's the Howling Banshees rune. And we know new plastic Banshees are a thing, so I suspect they'll have an important role to play on the Psychic Awakening. What this might mean in terms of model releases, I have no idea, but now we know they're actively involved, so that's a start.

Lord_Caerolion Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 They've also said that "from the ashes, a Phoenix rises", so maybe we'll see new Phoenix Lords as well.

Panzer Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Soooo ... we've learned basically nothing about psychic awakening we didn't already know before. Great reveal lol Though the claim for it to be as similarly big as the 13th Black Crusade and the Horus Heresy is quite something. Hopefully not again just GW hyping up hot air.

HandsWithLegs Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Despite the corax tease, I don't think he's going to be the next primarch to return. There's been no buildup or story leading up to it that I've seen unlike others like the Lion and Russ. I think its just a thing to get the fans to chatter a bit Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357547-pyschic-awakening-speculation/page/7/#findComment-5376682 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 It confirmed to everyone that its a new campaign/narrative moving forward with new rules, models etc. I'm guessing there are a lot more casual people who didn't know what it'd be, but yeah, for us here who figured out it'd have to be that, nothing new was really learned. I think the corax 'tease' is a painted image, rather than a shot of some mini, blurred and distant?

DeadFingers Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) I just realized that throughout the article, they refer to Psychic Awakening as a "series", so that makes me think it's going to be something that's gonna be ongoing for a while. Less of a campaign by itself and more of a "framework" to introduce various conflicts across the galaxy involving different factions each. Something akin to what Malign Portents was for AoS, moving the story forward, focusing on one faction after another, introducing new armies, setting up future plot points, etc. It confirmed to everyone that its a new campaign/narrative moving forward with new rules, models etc. I'm guessing there are a lot more casual people who didn't know what it'd be, but yeah, for us here who figured out it'd have to be that, nothing new was really learned.

Closet Skeleton Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Barely a preview at all. So its going to be Vigilus but longer and less connected, sounds like 40k endtimes. Doesn't help that googling "Psychic Awakening" gets a whole load of results about spirituality. 40k is riffing off the concept from spirituality in the first place, its just that Science Fiction is a big influence on spirituality. The lore never mattered. Rogue trader is barely recognizable from even 3rd edition's lore. Except for the 3rd ed Necron codex which is more Rogue Trader than 2nd ed or the later 1st ed White Dwarf articles.

Sete Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 So the speculation continues. It seem BT are on another adventure with Inquisitors, and Eldar are to be involved again! Are the Templars bringing yet another Primarch to 40? Don't miss the next episode!

BitsHammer Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) I was doing some research in the Ad Mech codex last night and stumbled across this: GW might have laid some threads for this early.
