Someone on B&C remarked that in one of the group shoots of Legion Imperialis, one of the Malcadors has a Vanquisher turret, which never was an option with the FW models, but now in Liber Imperium the option exists as well... perhaps a hint at a future plastic Malcador for the 'mystery' army.

GW:"Space marines got too many options to balance, therefore we decided to legends HH units."
Players: "why?!? Now we finally got decent plastic kits and you cut them?"
Chaos marines players: "Since when are Daemonengines 30k models and why do i have NO droppods now?"
GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!"
Chaos players: Guess i stop playing or go to HH. |

For me its practically settled 99% surety for a plastic Solar Auxillia as the mystery army.
I presume they made 3d Solar Auxillia models in 2 scales. Easier, save time and money.

Seems with the Legions Imperialis box coming in August we are getting plastic Assault Marines earlier than expected, just not in the size we expected.
So the 'More Lords of War...' from the Roadmap applies to the other Cerastus? Or what do you think?

Agreed
I also expect it to be an army box or something, not just 1 plastic unit.

Probably the Cerastus. We are still waiting for whatever the FW releases are going to be as well but Summer is only a month in so there's time yet.

Well the seasons go Spring (March, April, May), Summer, (June, July, August), Autumn/Fall (September, October, November), and Winter (December, January, February).
June is the first month of Summer and that's seen the release of 10th because GW always releases new editions in June. There are two more months for the Lancer and the FW parts of the HH roadmap to come along. Once the second wave of Marines and Nids has been shown (after the 10th of July), the Lancer will likely go up for pre-order and we'll know whats coming from FW in time for new Epic to be out in August.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. I’d seen a rumour of a plastic Malcador kit too, which seems consistent with SA coming next.

I'm disappointed they didn't release Tartaros pattern Terminators. I like those far more than Cataphractii armor.
On a side note, cause ya know it's going to happen, I wonder what future releases are planned for in resin?

Plastic Auxilia will be glorious! Also makes a ton of sense considering they can be used by both loyalists and traitors alike. I especially look forward to the tanks
I am not a fan of the upcoming MKVI Assault squad if the Epic Imperialis stuff is an indication of their looks, that backpack is "wrong type" and I don't like the new chestplate design.. So I will have to kitbash them with MKV resin Jump Packs and old 40K assault squad chestplates.. but hey, at least chestplate swaps are still doable thanks to the sculptors retaining the og chestplate dimensions the same in the new sculpts

Heads and shoulder pads for all the legions of course
Though I wonder if we will actually see different armour marks in that scale, GW never misses a chance to sell even more Space Marine.

They showed the Mk6 Assault Marine renders at the last preview event so this isn't really a surprise.

I know, I said these same things when this sketch was released.. I just had naive hope that maybe they would still change appearance during later stages of the design.. but actually in hindsight, those were probably the final CAD masters they sent for slicing into parts for the sprues already, turnover for plastic kits is probably in the ballpark if so

Your helmets and arms would also be too big.. but you can still razorsaw the legs separate from the torsos in a pinch

Well I found this interesting
The Decurion Lanius is a cruel tank commander unique to the Sons of Horus. Emerging in the latter days of the Heresy, these hatch-mounted enforcers maintain the Warmaster’s grip by callously executing any allies who fall out of line. Designed to work with the plastic Deimos Pattern Predator, the Sicaran Battle Tank, the Sicaran Punisher, or the Kratos Heavy Assault Tank, this resin miniature also comes with a choice of heads.
The Sicaran variant I have been waiting for a while.

Wouldn't read too much into it. While obviously we'll get all the plastic tanks eventually, this is just a list of models that can take tank commanders in the rules, by virtue of having a hatch on the turret. IMHO it's not a hint, I doubt the person writing that blurb even knows whether the Punisher is already out in plastic or not.

they do seem to be setting SoH up as the perfect "allied" contingent for the warmaster's legions as they try to crush the false emperor
its a nice way of doing things given they already have a HQ aimed directly at leading an allied unit

Don’t worry. Some folk have made pretending to be upset at a business their entire personality.

also the whole point of resin spin cast stuff is the tooling to make it is very cheap, heck for gravity cast you can do it at home.
releases like this take more manpower to make but allows some seriously specialised models

Yes i rather like them, will certainly stand out on a tank as an arrogant commander watching over his forces.
Makes me wonder what a 3rd legion one would look like. Foot on the cupola, waving around a sword like a spanker or maybe with a big arse sonic speaker mounted behind him to scream things?
