They'd look really cool in an Ironweld focused army, like elite, top-of-the-line engineer-handgunners.
I was even thinking about Arch Knights. They don't exist as unit, but who knows in the future.

Interesting. And could go as well with the wings we are assuming are from a Morghast.
Maybe the new FEC models have this kind of looks for their dragons/ dragon equivalent and it is more feasible than a Morghast as we know FEC units are coming.- 3

Space Marines will be announced this Sunday
Did GW hinted us the launch of the Warcry box, with CoS and Ogors, with their illustration on Instagram? Or is it not happening soon?

Could be for the Old World- there is a Liche riding an undead dragon coming according to Valrak.
Do we usually get RE for games outside of AoS and 40k? I don't know, but if we do I don't think we are in the point where we would have TOW RE yet.

The limbs are actually pretty different looking. I think the new one might be for 40k.
I was thinking one being a foot and the other a hand. They look too similar to me, but GW always try to catch us 😅

This is clearly the other leg/hand of this unsolved RE, right?

I don't think all armies are going to be updated/have a second wave after 4th. That's quite an insane number of second waves. In order alone that's Fyreslayers, KO, DoK and IDK who have yet to receive a second wave, and CoS who just got their first wave. Then there's Lumineth which still need 2 temples worth of waves, Seraphon who still have quite a few outdated kits. DoK and Sylvaneth have a few kits that could really stand to be brought up to AoS standards too.
And that's not even mentioning the Thunderstricification of Stormcast.
Then Chaos has Skaven and BoC that need to be basically completely redone. Every chaos god army has at least a few resin kits that really need updates too.
Death has FeC which are in dire need of an expansion, and OBR which has yet to receive a wave 2. And SBGL for all its kits has mostly got named foot vampires with a lot of battleline still looking outdated.
Destruction same thing, with armies like Bonesplitterz literally just having an UW warband as new models for the entirety of AoS. Kruleboyz need a second wave, Ogors are in desparate need of quite a lot of kit remakes, Gloomspite could really use updates to Spiderfang, Troggoth expansions, some reworks of the more outdated kits etc.
That's a LOT to do in 3-4 years. AoS is waaaay too succesful for an End Times scenario, with GWs financials confirming the game to only be growing, which is an immesurable step up from how WFB fared for at least 3 editions before it got blown up.
I'm guessing that alongside the huge amount of updates to current armies that are still necessary there are at least a few more armies coming (Malerion, Grungi) and some substantial subfactions (Gitmob, Grotbag, more CoS, Gholemkind, Kurnothi, Lumineth River and Lumineth Sun, Stormcast chambers, etc.) which should be more than enough for at least 2 more editions.
So you think rather than revamping everything you've mentioned (which is pretty accurate), they would keep it and at some point discontinue it/ move it to legend and would go for newer (non upgrade from previous minis) stuff instead?

Ok im just thinking out loud here. If 3rd edition is finished a substantial part of AoS will have decent sculpts. After 4th edition all armies should be updated or have received a 2nd wave. What will they do after that? Release more armies? Start refreshing all over again? Another End Times? My guess is GW already has to be planning what they want to do in the future. Any ideas?
I think we are too far in time to have all armies even close to be updated. I would say we need at least another 3 editions in order to be in that point. So we would slowly be getting refreshes and new units and sporadic new factions until 2032. Maybe then they would start over again.

I do have a feeling this is the last time we see a Cities of Sigmar book in that mixed, post GA Order form. The first CoS book phased out 35 warscrolls and countless mini factions. The current one axed fewer, but started replacing the identity of the whole army. To me, it's really hard to see the current further segregation of human, dwarf and elf forces as another step on a road to segregating them book-wise as well. Unless there is a next CoS book that would start introducing replacement kits for the dwarfs and elves like the current one did with humans.
To me makes sense that they are segregated from a range point of view. If all the races are kept, and we don't have mixed units as it seems we would, the range could be comparable in size with the Stormcast one.
It is either that or having a big core of humans and 2-3 units for dwarvens and elves, which I think would make more damage than help.- 2

I’m hoping that 4.0 updates old factions (Ogors, Skaven, BoC, the like) and sends out the next waves for armies that otherwise are currently small like Fyreslayers, Kharadron, Ossiarchs, Lumineth, Idoneth, and their ilk. Maybe even a Gargant or two.
And CoS wave 2. Don't forget our mortals.

What are people's opinions on the Old World for this preview at Warhammer Day? Wouldn't it be suitable to reveal the game already and the starter box army battalions? On top of this the preview drops 3 days after the last day of the 40 Years of Warhammer nostalgia cycle. If GW are smart and want to properly honor WHFB and the true 40 year anniversary then I think they should reveal the project, game and minis right then and there!
Thoughts?
Even if it would be the icing on the cake for the 40th anniversary I don't think we would see TOW this year, so imo it is too early to see boxes.

We are expecting to have a Warhammer Day model for AoS as well, right? .... right?

It's usually Warhammer Day towards the end of October, sometimes a bigger preview in November (last year we had Arks of Omen + a bunch of other stuff in November after a themed preview for Warhammer Day), and then a Black Library preview in December.
My personal guesses would be:
Warhammer Day: Anniversary Edition- Harry The Hammer
- Old World
- Nostalgia themed new stuff for 40k and AoS (Grombrindal?)
- Dawnbringers Book 3?
November Event Preview
- FeC reveal, maybe tease earlier
- Dawnbringers Book 3/4
- Bunch of 40k
- Misc. Old World, Necromunda etc.
December Black Library
- Siege of Terra finale
- Callis and Toll minis
- 40k/HH BL mini
Pretty solid guesses over here imo.

Chaos:
Beasts of Chaos
Blades of Khorne
Disciples of Tzeentch
Hedonites of Slaanesh
Maggotkin of Nurgle ✔️
Skaven
Slaves to Darkness
Death
Flesh-Eater Courts ✔️
Nighthaunt
Ossiarch Bonereapers
Soulblight Gravelords
Destruction
Gloomspite Gitz ✔️
Ogor Mawtribes
Orruk Warclans ✔️
Sons of Behemat
Order
Cities of Sigmar
Daughters of Khaine
Fyreslayers ✔️
Idoneth Deepkin
Kharadron Overlords
Lumineth Realm-lords
Seraphon
Stormcast Eternals
Sylvaneth
We have so far 5/12. Having already 2 destruction factions covered and being this book the destruction related one it seems very unlikely that we would have more destruction ones.
Khorne rumours seems pretty strong, so that would be the 6th, and based on the comments during the last months I would say Silvaneth is almost confirmed as well, being the 7th.
That leaves 5 more factions fully open to speculation.
My guess would be OBR for Death, just purely for balancing the releases between Grand Alliances.
Then KO and ID, to give them a bit of love, and to finish the "roster" 2 more from Chaos, but I am not fully sure which ones. Maybe Slaves and something else.I didn't read the last Dawnbringer short until now, and it cleared a bit my doubting one. With the appearance of Skavens into the equation... maybe they get something as well, so that would fit on my missing chaos guess.

Isn't warhammer having some sort of games cycles? Yesterday I read that we should be happy with the current AoS development compared with last's year one, but I always felt AoS and 40k have some sort of cycles. When one is down the other is up, so I trust in AoS for this warhammer day seing it seems to be AoS focus time.

When's the next reveal show from GW ? Now that NOVA's over, I have no clue if there's some big shows left this year.
Someone metioned there's one left every month. One of them being the Warhammer day.

He also reacted to a comment of mine that only referred to Darkoath, so that part should be on the money at least.
And he has been hinting darkoaths for a few time as well, so maybe that's the 8th "confirmed" one

Not necessarily, as GSG had stuff in both books so far
Yeah. I know both factions could have more stuff, but that wouldn't cover the overall 12+ factions. That's what I mean.

I would love new temple guard or a new monster.
However I think it's more likely for some other factions to get stuff... my prediction for the 7 remaining
1. FEC
2. Nurgle
3. Khorne
4. Idoneth
5. Ogors
6. Soulblight (it's been a couple months since their last character foot hero... time for another.
7. Daughters
As FEC and Nurgle already got something, you gotta guess another 2!

If I remember correctly, @Whitefang implied that we would have Callis & Toll (as well as Ushoran).
So COS have to be added to the list of 12.Yeah, but maybe they are released with some sort of Black Library approach similar to Blacktalon

Apart from the Darkoath icon that appeared in the annoucement trailer of the campaign, none so far. (This icon is the warband symbol Darkoath Savagers in Warcry).
Maybe Fyreslayers get more things later down the campaign. You all know the Whitefang rumours about them, no need to repeat them, that's what I'm basing myself on.
Also don't forget Cities of Sigmar getting minis, there's a Whitefang rumour about Callis & Toll minis.
But yeah so far, Khorne & Sylvaneth are the most likely candidates for new minis.
Uhhh. Good point! I had no clue about that particular one. Imo this almost confirms Darkoath, yes. Another one to the list.
