Dark Shepherd Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Outta left field, maybe, but Psychic Awakening has been hinting at an “Imperial Daemons”-type faction shaping up, so I wouldn’t be too surprised if that gets unveiled, either in lieu of or alongside 9th. (I cannot usefully express how dumb the idea is, but I think that makes it much more likely, overall) Could their manifestation be the endless spells for 40k? Now theres rumours within rumours Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363944-big-preview-speculation/page/2/#findComment-5523321 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redcomet Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Endless spells for 40k would be a no brainer. Would add new challenges to the game, and enable GW to roll out a new range of codexes, with endless spells amd the PA added rules.

Chapter Master Valrak Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Destroyer Lord with legs would be strictly worse than a regular one? Why are you keen on one, Valrak?

Other side will of course be Primaris. No need to rock the boat too hard on the crunch side.

toaae Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I'm really hopeful that we'll also get a taste of the digital solution they teased at LVO. At the very least, we need something like the AoS app. Aramis K 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363944-big-preview-speculation/page/2/#findComment-5523378 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARK0SIAN Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I’m hoping any Necron range refresh also comes with a shot in the arm for Necrons as a whole. They’re a bit behind at the moment :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363944-big-preview-speculation/page/2/#findComment-5523381 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexington Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) Imperial Daemons? The closest thing I can think of is Legion of the Damned. If they get a revamp the world will be a much better place.I got the feeling from the PA books that LotD would get rolled into this faction, however it manifests. It’d make enough sense - LotD has already been quasi-reclassified this way in Master of Mankind, and it’d be a way to bring back Ghost Ferrus as another Loyalist Primarch without upsetting the basic setup of the new Imperium’s power structure. Like, again - and I cannot stress this enough - it’s a stupid idea and I hate it, but that just makes it more likely, not less. :p Edited May 18, 2020 by Lexington Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363944-big-preview-speculation/page/2/#findComment-5523382 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they get a revamp the world will be a much better place. And Saint Celestine who operates much like a Daemon Prince, and possibly Corax who is bopping around the warp as a living shadows/cloud of crows hunting Logar. Honestly it's not like GW hasn't done this sort of thing before. Tomb Kings were undead who were animated with what was basically holy magic, some Seraphon are daemons conjured from memories of ancient Slaan and we have some examples existing in the setting. Plus there is an arguement that while the Emperor may not have been a god in M30, after feeding him countless psykers and the faith of untold trillions everyday for 10k years may have pushed him into that realm, even if he's bound to a physical form which may cause new wrinkles to arise in the setting.

I mean the Imperium basically flies CHURCHES through HELL to travel through SPACE. That's so stupid it's awesome.

ThePenitentOne Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 Lots of cool dreams here. Stuff I hadn't even considered. You guys also did a lot to diminish my anxiety over 9th; I feel like even if it turns it to be that, maybe it'll be okay. So thanks for that. One less day to wait... As for an Imperial Daemon faction... Interesting. Not sure I'd get behind it personally. If it drew Celestine away from working with the SoB that would suck. But other than that, I'm sort of indifferent; the great thing about factions is that if I don't like them, I don't have to play them. Gotta go back and look at that silhouette shot- I forgot about it; thanks for the reminder.
