The question is whether they redo the resin kits so they fit the new MKIII or they just throw out half the kit like with the Contemptors and only sell the arms now Phone formatting is a pain, but the top row middle picture is probably Tyranid. The carapace ridging is one of the Tyranid line’s hallmarks. I would expect that FW’s entire HH line is going to get revamped to both fit with new plastic kits and retooled. How old are many of the full kits? How many have reputations for poor fits or bending? Serious questions because I don’t do a lot of FW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For HH I can only speak for OG Dreads, Sicarans, Gal Vorbak, Blade Slaves and Zardu, and they're all great minis. For FW in general old kits aren't bad. They seem to update the moulds frequently, and space marines go together like space marines, regardless of when and what material they were made of. As for poor reputations: Fire Raptor and Storm Eagle, Although I don't have personal experience, and people do tend to spread misinformation, so take everything with a grain of salt.

01RTB01 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 If they give us Ufthak Blackhawk I'd be overjoyed. I'm unsure what else orks "need". Some tankbustas with flash gitz esque weapons (lots of bits and options) would be nice, maybe some multi part bikes with interchangeable bits? Some ranged orientated mega-armour? Anyhoo... Based on the rumour engine, Ufthak is possible. Evil Eye and Ammonius 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burni Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Ufthak Blackhawk would also give us a Bad Moons character which has been an odd omission for a while. Evil Eye 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made a bigger prediction post a page back. However when looking at rumor engines for speculation sake ( I left out the definitive AoS ones, and made rough guesses.. for example none of the admech ones are 100% admech imho, but because Admech will have a release in winter I added any and all there that could fit.) Its possible Necron or Admech stuff is shown or teased (those are also very old rumor engines), as they will be winter and could be early winter. Kroot, Chaos and Ork is unlikely to be shown as they are for 2024... altough last edition we had the teaser video that showed stuff way in advance ( the one with Lelith, Skitari marshal, parasite etc.) but I believe that was more because of covid delays. The "Guard" rumor engines could be shown as I dont think thats a regular release but a special edition one. The Mystery ones have a very good chance to not be 40k, but they are not as obviously AoS as others... interestingly despite being very different, they do kind of overlap in atmosphere.. its daemonic/aquatic without being obviously chaos nor idoneth (AoS sea elves) .. I think the hand will be a Bulltaur for bloodbowl (altough at first I didnt really think it was BB ) That first Admech one is Tau/Kroot as that blade is marked with all of the Caste symbols, I think the bottom left mystery one might be a Krootox hand as well (Kroot also have two thumbs and the armour is very similar to one of the kill team Kroot).

ThePenitentOne Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 While I'm looking forward to the preview, and I will watch it, there's going to be very little in it for me. 5 of the 7 systems being previewed are fantasy, not sci-fi. And while I always watch fantasy previews because many offer conversion potential, that's the extent of my interest. Of the 2 sci-fi systems being previewed, one is Marines only by default, and the other is likely to consist of only Marines because we know they are next, and we know there's likely enough of them to occupy all the time that will be alotted to 40k. Excluding Necromunda and Kill Team really tarnishes the potential for this preview to hold my interests. MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer that to another book release quite so soon. Anything is better than nothing though. I think we can be pretty certain it's Solar Auxilia..... Not much of a mystery tbh. But not unwelcome. Personally I think a fleshing out of the SoS would have fitted the 'mystery' monica better. But I'm doubtful it's them.

Armchair Warlord Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 What I'd love to see most is Forgeworld getting back to releasing stuff on a bigger scale.... Both model wise and regularity. I know 10th Ed is in it's infancy, but a return to they're Imperial Armour work, with the flavour it brought would make the 40k galaxy feel a little broader and bigger again. skylerboodie, Lazarine, Mmmmm Napalm and 2 others 3 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To determine the failure to success percentage there would have had to have been failures I.E. deaths undergoing the procedure. Otherwise it would be a 0% chance of failure. Obviously. Not necessarily. I dont have to flip a coin to know that there's a 50% chance it will land on heads. Things can be predicted through modelling beforehand, like the weather. The point is, that we do not have a single, recorded instance in the literature of a procedure failing, which means while theoretically, there's a 61.6 chance of success, practically, there's a 100% chance of success.
