I can't let myself hope that hard.

 

-edit-

BUT IF I WERE TO HOPE........

That blood knight unit of Lahmian vampires that Josh Reynolds came up with would be bonkers.

and now you brought up the glorious mister Josh Reynolds and his masterpieces.... Seriously his Fabius Bile stuff is what got me to like The Emperor's Children over in 40K.

What if the Idoneth warband contains no idoneth and it’s just fish and sea creatures 

After the Fish silhouette and the Crab Claw RE I'm hoping that it's a Beast Master with 3 or 4 Sea Creature units, much like Hrothgorn with his Frost Sabre and 3 Gnoblars.

I'm not expecting much. The AoS preview had way more than I was expecting none of which has been released. 40k on the other hand is almost up to date. The only thing that has been previewed properly and not released is the sisters suit. 

I'm expecting more sisters  minis and codex. Admech mini(s?) and codex, redemptionists, OBR warband and more Soulblight but not the full range. If there is a surprise it will be on the 40k side. 

It is still a surprise to me how few new minis there are for 40k. The roll out of Marines and Necrons won't finish until May. That's a full 10 months mostly focused on just 2 ranges. They had 2 death guard minis,1 DoK mini, possibly just 1 admech mini and maybe a handful of sisters kits.  In the same time frame AoS wil have had 10  underworlds warbands, 2 warcry warbands, Lumineth twice, Sons of Behemat, Slaanesh, at least 2 broken realms books, and probably Cursed City. 

Considering they just got a new Edition itnis quite odd to see not much going on for 40K, that we know of. I really hope Xeno players get a massive relaunch, perhaps 2022 I'd the year of the Orruk/Ork and they get a massive update alongside Nids. But I am so happy for AOS it has grown in leaps and bounds.

Tomorrow is the big day guys!! What are your hopes and dreams for the Preview?

Prediction:

Faith is 40k and Necromunda stuff: Cawdor, Admech and maybe more Sisters

Damnation is AoS and Underworlds: Bonereapers and a few new Soulblight units. Maybe more on BR: Belakor.

I expect the preorder announcement for BR: Teclis, as well. I suspect they wanted to release it earlier, but it should be out in March in any case.

 

Hopes and dreams:

Faith is an out of left field Order of Azyr/Cities of Sigmar expansion reveal.

Soulblight Gravelords are fully revealed.

Dual box for the two factions: Vampire vs Vampire Hunters (I predicted this before we knew about Cursed City. I'll look properly prescient if it actually pans out.)

I'm just refreshing both w-h site and my favorite shops to see if Cursed City preorders lunch today. Wonder if the price is going to be acceptable.

Pro tip. On Friday set your GW store to New Zealand - witness all the release stuff before its released.

Second Pro Tip. After viewing the future set your store BACK to your local region before trying to buy anything (or going to bed and waking up to then buy things.

 

 

Note this trick does not work for those in New Zealand nor Ozland.

My only surprise is the speed of this release as it seems to be coming out very soon*. AoS is having a powerful year - a half line update for Slaanesh and Luminieth; a full Warhammer Quest and now a massive Vampire update all in the 1st to 2nd Quarter of the year. That's a phenominal amount of additions! 

 

 

*at least sooner than 6 months away which was what I was anticipating.
