    SCE mentality should fit perfectly with 40k... :D

    Don't you mean the Knights Exterminatus?

    Looks like the Knight Excelsior are being painted as the over zealous killing machines, just like the Black Templars. Wonder if the Knight's also use "loopholes" to gain an advantage.

    Tomb Kings were always a niche army, even back in the good old days of WFB. Very few people played them even when they were readily available. That's probably the reason why GW scraped them in the first place.

    I would be shocked to see GW reintroduce them to the model line, and especially to see them get new models. I think the introduction of undead pirates is more likely; which would be an interesting new aesthetic.


    That's because they are Space Marines and 40k lore revolves around Space Marines.

    Dammit I can't watch it with audio right now. But what I see sure looks interesting! Half-snake people? Are those Yuan-Ti or demons or Medusas or whatever those are called in the Warhammer universe?

    I also see Half-Human Half-Tyranid people? Are those Daemonettes maybe? Because I also see mounts that look like the cool things Daemonettes ride on. Slaneesh?

    And who is the dude with the spiky armor, sword and huge crown?

    Is the gauntlet with the heart and arrows something I should recognize?

    What about the symbol?


    ...so many questions....

    Ok so this is not Malign Portents related then? Maybe we should then move the discussion over to the other thread that @Xasto created.

    That is clearly Morathi speaking. Mortahi was one of the leaders of the Dark elves back in the world that was. She was taken by Slaanesh, also known as the dark prince, but escaped somehow.

    Those snakes are medusae, they already exist in the game. The ones with the spikey hands, i would say are daemonettes. I do see some witch elves.

    The spikey guy is a statue of Khaine, the bloody handed god. He was the god of murder before the age of sigmar, so i guess he survived.

    Morathi's old faction logo was, i think, a hand hold a bleeding heart.

    The symbol looks elv-ish.

    That would be in line with the news regarding the next-to-come tome for elves...

    The long awaited return of the Elves. I'll bet that it will be a very successful release. A lot of people are really clamoring for it.

    Yeah that's my impression as well.
    Elves and Slaanesh are quite often asked for it seems.

    I'll be curious what they do with the Keeper of Secrets. That model needs a revamp badly.

    Dark Elves (or whatever they are now called in AoS) could link up very nicely with Slaanesh.
