Adepticon Preview 2026 - 25/03

[Marshal Rohr]

Great way to drum up new GuilliPhone sales is to release a new model with slight differences and then market it at full blast to make sure every edition you get your new GuilliPhone. 

[de Selby]

I never much liked the Guilliman figure apart from the I, Claudius face sculpt (I did like Magnus). However I think it would be hilarious if after all the speculation, the third loyalist primarch to be released was just Guilliman again. Will he also be the fourth loyalist primarch? When two out of three primarchs are Roboute Guilliman you'd be a fool to bet against him!

The Inquisition could have him assassinated for messing with the status quo and being an obvious heretic. 

The only beings with more plot armor than the Primarchs is the Space Wolves, so no that's not gonna happen.

Imagine a world where Yarrick lives and Guilliman dies though, the outrage would be great.

[Orange Knight]

Guilliman will get a new model, and an additional loyalist will get released during the course of 11th edition.

 

The Primarchs are a part of the IP that has immense value and GW fully understand this. Even if the Studio and Black Library move slowly, they remain fully aware of the potential impact.

We can see this in the way they are currently building up the meeting between Guilliman and the Lion.

Shame it took them 3 years to get around to it.

'Guilliman, your attempts to establish a galaxy wide system of time and record keeping have gone too far!'

I'm actually just realising how poor this preview will make me if some rumours and speculation come true:

 

- 11th ed box: it's an auto buy for me.

- If the Mordian rumour is true: as stated I'll be getting as many of their heads as possible to make Terrax Guard
- Solar Auxilia: Could we finally be seeing 30k scale SA Baneblades, Shadowswords, etc? If so I'm buying one so I can convert the Fortress of Arrogance for Yarrick (another definite purchase from me).

- Any vaguely Astartes: becuase I have a problem, and no I will not be seeking help.

 

God-Emperor have mercy on my wallet, for I shall not.

 

[TheVoidDragon]

I can't really see them making a Mordian Iron Guard full unit but i could see maybe them having one of them as part of the rumoured characters accompanying Yarrick. 

If they did actually make a full unit, then that's just going to make the whole Steel Legion situation worse I expect as it would mean that some of the arguments used to dismiss the idea of them getting miniatures aren't actually the case.

That's no different from the sort of timeframe for any other character to get more stuff, that's just the pace they do things at. It took the silent king around 5 years from his model release to finally properly show up in a book and have the Imperium encounter him in-universe.

That would send all the “Guilliman‑is‑actually‑Alpharius” theorists into a frenzy!

A heretic primarch? Such a thing would be unthinkable. 

 

This post was brought to you by official Imperial doctrine.

Mordians probably the only (ok maybe Cadians as well) Guard regiment where a headswap is sufficient to make another regiment, hello praetorians 

[Dark Shepherd]

Afaik these are new/clearer

[LittlePlasticHomies]

Does that say Armage-?

[TheVoidDragon]

Quite strange that the 3rd one has space where you'd assume there to be text, but it's completely blank. Maybe they removed the text so it's not a clear indication?

Just paint them black and you have Terrax Guard.

That tracks. but has to be Guard infantry with the sniper rifle/lasgun combo

[grailkeeper]

I thought the skull had an M on it, but this closer look makes it look like it might be something else. 

[Dark Shepherd]

All the non licensed merch/logos for Catachan seem to have a theme. Dont know how based on old lore/ye olde official emblems they are

What situation? A bunch of people who don't even collect imperial guard get upset a specific regiment doesn't get a model but another does?  Whatever will we do when all of these Long Held Steel Legion Fans Without A Single Steel Legion Model Who Also Ignored The MTO Option From A Few Months Ago start complaining AGAIN??

 

Oh. Right. Ignore the silly complaints. Pretty easy. 

 

At least Mordians would be a completely new aesthetic for available plastic from GW.  And it'll be a Kill Team to test to see if giving them the full Krieg treatment is worth it (It won't be).

Well, that's about as clear as it gets. Solar Auxila are (at least part) of the Heresy reveal.

Bring us Ogryn Charonites and more tanks you cowards!

I mean ogyrns and rapiers are gone from the store, as are the Aurox and Carnadons so those are pretty much a given I think. I'm also expecting large scale superheavies. 

[DemonGSides]

I would love some new Ogryn. Do not care for the 40k aesthetic at all for them. 

[Joe]

The Catachan logo, at least as of 2022, is still the skull with crossed knives. Can't see them changing that at this point.

 

[Matcap86]

The lasguns in the logo also remind me more of hotshot guns. Maybe a broadening of the Tempestus Range? With Aquilons and Scions, they might expand those into a subfaction?
