The Rumour Engine - 14th October, 2025

WarCom Article.

 

I'd assume an apothecary-esque character given the needle.

[DeadFingers]

Techy fiddlybits in the style of Bile, trim included, that don't belong to Bile?

 

 

Whatever could this mean I wonder.

It reminds me of the old medicae in the solar auxilia command squad. Or it's for the mechanicus. Either way it's promising

[Lord Marshal]

Didn't Valrak have a rumour about DarkMech? Seems like it'd fit that shoe.

 

I'd say Butcher-Surgeon, but that would get the World Eaters' hopes up and we all by now know that's not fair.

[Northern Walker]

An apothecary type character for CSM?

[LSM]

Immediate thoughts run to:

• Consortium Apothecary for CSM
• Butcher Surgeon for WE
• Fleshcrafter for EC

(Hmmmm... I've been "anti-EC-Cultists-Kill-Team", but throw in a Fleshcrafter leading them...)

[Ming the Merciless]

Looks a bit chunky to be Haemonculus Coven related 

[Orange Knight]

Could be a Chaos Apothecary?

[Agramar_The_Luna_Wolf]

CSM or simply something chaotic.

It can be an apothecary like miniature or something for Dark Mechanicum.

 

Interesting,really interesting 

[Casual Heresy]

It's certainly chaos with the similar design elements seen on Fabius Bile as others have noted. I'm personally hoping it's a Butcher-surgeon for the World Eaters.

Valrak said about Red Corsairs getting more than 1 kit, could it be for Garreon maybe?

[Dudley Nightshade]

I don't see anything that says 40K in the article. Aren't the Rumour Engines sometimes about Necromunda?

[Craig]

Looks like something on a piece of terrain. A bit like the old objective marker set.

Interesting call, though he's left the Red Corsairs for the Night Lords. (Edit: corrected below.)

I would love more kits like that in general. We’ve had Gaunt’s Ghosts and Hell’s Last, time to let other factions get the ‘cast of a BL novel as a unit’ treatment.

GW is run by depraved Slaaneshis who feast on our dashed hopes and suffering. You'll take your 64bound and you'll LIKE IT.

[Marshal Loss]

Exciting! Personally hope it's EC for obvious reasons, but I'm keen to see what it is regardless

Wrong Red Corsairs Apothecary - Variel left them for the Night Lords, Garreon is still loyal to Huron. 

[Tastyfish]

Could be the medic in the Iron warriors upgrade sprue Valrak has mentioned?

[ShibeKing]

I hope it's Dark Mechanicus or Butcher Surgeons. I'm always off by miles when it comes to these darn rumor engine pics though.

I remember that Valrak did a video and states something about Red Corsairs getting some love. Possible it could be the Apothecary that helped stitch Huron back together?

[Lathe Biosas]

Could it be a Horus Heresy release of Fabius Bile?

[Magos Takatus]

Admech already got a character with preposterously long legs recently so it's probably more likely to be dark mech or some chaos surgeon than an Admech Genator with go-go-gadget arms.
