Warhammer is returning to Washington State in 2025! Come and join us for an amazing weekend filled with sneak peeks, gaming, shopping, and hobby events in the shadow of Mt. Ranier at the Greater Tacoma Convention Center.

First indication of when to expect the next preview event - anywhere between the 17th to the 20th. Sadly still tied to the competitive events. Thank you, Mike Brandt.

So Dark Eldar obvs, hopefully more than just the one leaked character. Strikes me as maybe too son for Wolf Scout killteam, but prob last chance for any Space Marine codex 2, though new marine.chapter character models youd expect to be shown

Hopefully see what's next for LI there too! Hopefully some Legion super heavies.

Sadly I think Tacoma open has always had the raiders/ravagers silhouettes in their logo, so it doesnt necessarily mean dark eldar reveals... though if enough people start to expect it because of it maybe it forces GWs hand and they at least show lady malys wich was leaked already. But with the Spacemarine characters ( I still think its supplements in one form or another ) and KO coming before them I think its too early.

 

On the other hand they call it sneak peaks, not reveals or a preview show.. so its possible they will just do some sneak peeks at the last year of the edition and thus also including dark eldar. On the other hand I think there is more dark eldar than just the codex, with 40k GNO in November being called into the webway ( and like I said before, its usually themed around the 40k narrative elements going on at the time and thus kill team/end of edition campaign.) and GW having had this open story submission with commoragh, armageddon and vigilus as the settings. small hints, but hints nonetheless.

 

But I think Nova in august is the next real preview/reveal show myself.

Yeah, it should be Nova in August next, which is when they may preview the next KT big release as I want to say that was when it was revealed last year.

Not last year, but the other years it was. ( last year kill team got a dedicated preview on the community site a week before NOVA. ).. Nova last year was forgettable : https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/NTHAS7Pc/the-warhammer-preview-show-nova-open-2024/

All it did for 40k was introduce is to a new era of roadmaps as 40k had its 3 months break afterwards.

Thanks for not even bothering to specify the month and making me have to click the link anyway. What a contribution your post made

Ah man, I was hoping to see some drukhari love finally.

And it always bothered me how they show the sprue of lady malys but the one who has it didn't bother to assemble it or even show the box, like it happened with previous leaks such as dante. Come on...

 

I hope you are right, that we will see some refresh for my favorite xenos soon.

The way I understood it there was no box for it.

The sprue had ended up in a bag of mixed sprues, that was sold, second hand, at a market of some sort.

 

My guess is that’s also why the leak hasn’t been recognized by GW/revealed on warhammer community (as happened with Dante and Fuegan); since there is no official picture, or text, it’s just an anonymous sprue.

(the same thing happened with the Lord of Poxes. Sprue leaked with no box, and was not officially revealed until some time later, once a suitable show rolled around)
