The Big Summer Warhammer Preview - July 18th.

[Northern Walker]

We may see Custodes for both systems?

[Joe]

Seems highly unlikely, given we've already had Custodes for 10E.

[Nephaston]

Any Custodes infantry will inevitably be useable in both systems, though it might get wibbly wobbly with terminator suits, dreads and vehicles. But "basic" goober with guardian spear will be evergreen.

Seeing the community lately this felt more apt.

tbh I wouldn’t be surprised if they find a way to somehow differentiate the kits. Not sure how, considering the generic weapons of Spears/Swords/Axes, but maybe expanding weapons options for one setting so you have to buy one kit or the other. 
 

They did say 30k Custodes are a good while away on the Saturnine launch stream. So I doubt we’ll see any today.

HH seems a tricky one to predict. On the one hand there is a lot of stuff they've teased that they could show off such as Cataphractii Terminators, breachers or Mechanicus or so on as well as thing like the Glaive or Falchion that we can imagine are on the way.

On the other hand HH had a reveal show all to itself recently and has generally been getting a lot of attention already so maybe they'll go easy on it here. But it also makes a lot of sense to try an keep lots of interest HH right now with the new edition launching so maybe they will get something substantial after all.

As for everything else I agree with others that 40k will probably be Marines and Votaan and the next box for Killteam while Chaos Dwarfs take up the AoS slot. For me, I'll be happy if we see Terminators for either 40k or HH and a cool new Necron Killteam. If we see any kind of Eldar I'll be really stoked but I'm not expecting it.

I reckon we'll see what they've already teased (Assaults, Breachers, Cataprachtii, Skitarii Pilgryms) and then maybe the Glaive, since it's just a different Fellblade turret and was in the trailer (unlike the Falchion which I could see coming later). The exception might be the Talons wave, since that can probably dominate a Heresy slot all by itself and the Nova Open is only another month away. 

 

Legions Imperialis-wise I'm guessing we'll finally see the Marine Super-Heavies, a Infantry box to round out Marines (probably with Saturnine) and Solar Auxilia, perhaps with the final Baneblade variants and maybe the Leman Russ Incinerator.

Every time they preview 30k I always hope to see just one thing: Plastic Outriders.

 

Though what I'm almost willing to bet money on for this one would be plastic legion upgrade sets to replace the resin ones.

It'll be the new Votann faction terrain. Always a popular and incredibly useful addition to any army's codex.

I think you can safely discount your gut in this case. I mean, they've deliberately said there'll be reveals for pretty much all their games and arranged a specific time for people to see these reveals, which would be a super weird thing to do if they had nothing to reveal.

I think they meant ‘nothing’ as in nothing important/big/interesting/etc

Not even that. Just finecast garden gnomes.

They'll be useful, because that's a Grudgin'

[DuskRaider]

I honestly doubt we’ll see more infantry at this point… perhaps Saturnine (heavy weapons Terminators?), but I think that’s even unlikely. I think the Felblade and perhaps a variant or two are a given considering they’re now in plastic… I’m honestly shocked we haven’t seen the Typhon or Cerberus yet, so they could be next. 

We may see more Artillery options for Astartes and / or Solar Auxilia.

The first New MKII/MKIII resin legion pads and helmets?

[Deus_Ex_Machina]

I would like to see:

 

- Space Crusade (remastered)

- 40K 2nd Box set (remastered)

- Planetary Empires hexagonal campaign tiles

- Diaz Daemonettes in plastic with additional unit types for Daemons of the Ruinstorm

- Man O´ War (remastered)

I reckon those will be saved for a Monday/Thursday reveal, iirc they tend not to show resins unless they're desperate for content.

Cataphactii and perhaps Tartaros Terminators, better looks at the Breachers and Mk II Assault Marines and maybe another journal? Possibly some more info on the stuff teased for Custodes and Mechanicum at the last show? The new edition is just on pre-order yes, but they've also announced a few other kits that haven't been released yet. Plus Heresy got an enormous show all of it's own and masses of coverage, so I wouldn't anticipate masses of stuff for Heresy given they probably want to let the new edition get out there.

 

30k gor the same as AOS and 40k did for their edition launch minus the follow up show after the box drops showing the full range of the two factions

AvePicante walks into his local Warhammer store, places a small disk on the counter and proceeds to walk out of the store. The store manager turns to him to ask what the offending object is, to which AvePicante replies "A Grudge token" and walks out.

He's already got one for taking so much of my money, thankfully any unit can have two tokens

Honestly I just want to see what the BT release box looks like and get a date for it, anything more is extra gravy.

Yeah I wonder if they're going to do Army Box or Battleforce.  They got more than one new release so I'm leaning towards Army Box, including a Codex and Datacards, but I could also see it just as easily showing up as a Battleforce with the two new sculpts and a smattering of random other things.  It's the first SM release I don't think we know which way it would go.  All the others (Besides GK) have been Army boxes, but they've all also had a much BIGGER refresh than what BT get this edition (Since their refresh came last edition).
