Yeah, I'm 100% convinced it's not Votann. Whatever it is, it's an individual component not attached to a model.

They sometimes edit out other parts of the model so they don't reveal too much. The recent Dark Angels Inner Circle rumour engine picture was just their backpack sword floating without it being on them for example.

They actually do more than that in many instances. One of the ex-painter folks had mentioned that they'll commonly do individual alternate components separately and the photo team will take pictures of the component for the webstore's little popout of alternate components.

I'm fairly sure it's Votann as well to be honest. I can't see it being guard considering they've had a big release fairly recently.

I suppose it could be for 30k ?

Correct, because the Guard got their army book updated for 9th right before 10th.

It's not like these rumor engines are likely to be solved next week. It might be stuff for whenever Guard get their book done for 10th.

Anyways, I'm still thinking Guard. The cloth doesn't look right for being LoV material. I feel like the camo pattern's been used before but I can't place it.

I'm still hoping for a Ratling sniper/sapper kit

Personal opinion I've held for a loooong time is that it would be nice to have both Guard and Auxiliary options for stuff like this.

Also, the length of the coat.

If the equipment is in the small of the back, the length would be suited to a Kin.

Yep, plus I think the canister is the ammo pack for the pioneer biker Ion Beamer. Also the camo pattern reminds me of Votann symbols, maybe oversized to act as camo marks.

I take it all back. There's a two-part camouflage pattern. If you look at the cloak of the Kasrkin Marksman, you can see the pattern in question. It's really faint on the rumour engine but that distinctive splinter camo pattern is there.

It's Cadian.

The shapes don't match at all tho

Now do the 360 and view the rear of the cloak.

There's a black jag pattern layered over top of a light green jag pattern. When viewed in the 360 view you can see that the jags are irregularly shaped and interlocked, rather than being done how the pattern on the armor is where it's a shape within a shape.

It's weird that you're pointing at the grenade for that cylinder, given that the grenade is recessed lines rather than raised lines.

Coud be a very bad gillysuit (camosuit for snipers)

I'm not pointing at anything, it's a reposted image from this thread.



Yea not seeing it. This is still the same jagged triangles he has on his armour plates, the rumour engine is parallel tetris blocks with all right angles.

Look at the Rumor Engine photo again. From the "u" to "u" in "Rumour", there's a black jag overlapping the white-ish "L" shaped bit. There's also what looks like another jag on the "gi" of "Engine".


I know it's hard to make out, given that they grayscaled the photo. But I promise you it's there!

I don't think I want to know what this one is?

New terrain range?

That was precisely my thought too!

Nids or Nurgle I reckon.

Wrong sort of fleshy for Slaanesh.

Tyranid terrain? Maybe for kill team?

I don't know what it is, but I want one.

 Mad Doc Grotsnik wrote:

No. Such. Thing.

Maybe sacrificial pit for GSC?

Definitely something fleshy under something hard/organic. Does not feel like nids to me. Getting more wood vibes then carapace. Nurgle or sylvaneth? Maybe other demons?

I could see it as part of a Dark Eldar model.

Frankly, that looks unfortunate for someone/something...

I actually think this might be the underside of a Catachan Face Eater (in the original Rogue Trader they look like face flannels....) - so maybe on a base of a new Catachan model?

That’s…a bloody good shout! Scale as ever is tricky to judge, but I don’t think it’s entirely out of the running.

Maybe a more literal interpretation (The modern studio seems to be going in an AoS direction sometimes) of the brainleaf?

And there is also whatever the venus flytrap inspired things still on the Catachan weapons team are.



But the scale of the brush strokes implies a fairly large object and that size combined with what we can see doesn't look like it's attached to any kind of tradition unit like infantry, a monster or vehicle. So it is a standalone object it seems, so Catachan/General Death World flora makes sense or perhaps some kind of AoS terrain or base scenery for a very large model.

Otherwise some kind of large Tyranid spore or terrain or "terrain model" like the Hammerfall bunker.

It looks Tzeentch to me.

Is Warcry still set in the Ghur predatory forest/Seraphon ruins? There are a few details that remind me of those trees.

That's the vibe I get too. That this is something for AoS terrain.

Good lord it’s a squig scrotum!

Guys. It's the Heart of Ghur.
