Wait just a minute...

A Kruleboyz symbol? Who do they utilise? Hobgrots.

An axe? What race likes axes? Dwarves.

A Chaos symbol and shield? What Dwarf comes in Chaos flavour?

Whitefang talking about a piece of Warhammer media? Who has recently been featured in a piece of Warhammer media (Total War)? 

 

It is easer:

Kruleboyz (symbol) vs Fyreslayers (axes) - Warcry (warcry warbands icon over the shield)

I mean, lets look at the evidence.

1. Next two Warcry releases are order vs destructionx2

2. KB confirmed by this tease

3. Out of all the order armies in the game who even uses axes besides Fyreslayers? The other options (KO, Dispossessed) are also dwarfs anyway, but out of the three, Fyreslayers love axes the most

4. Fyreslayers confirmed.

Anyone interested may need to watch that episode of Hammer & Bolter about darkoath...

So : 

1. It's the Warcry logo mixed with the Chaos Stars and Barbarians weapons - looking Darkoath-y

2. There is some sort of Kruleboyz logo (or is it a Reptilian Seraphon head) ?

3. Per leaks and Roadmap we know there is a new Starter Set coming. And that there are NO Chaos teams in the first releases of the next season. 

4. The Hammer & Bolter Episode was about Darkoaths versus Cities of Sigmar. 

So... It's 100% for Warcry

It could be a stand alone supplement, or the Starter set is in fact CoS vs Darkoath (and the one recently leaked was a Nobles & Barns edition or something similar).

BUT we already have a Darkoath warband for Warcry, so...

:P:/:P

COGFORT?!

Didn't the cogfort idea get debunked a while ago? Darkoath cavalry seems a possibility. One of the narrators of the first Dawnbringers video was a Darkoath. Maybe we are finally getting replacements for the old maruader kits.

The Roadmap isn't giving us Chaos related warbands for a long while, unless they are giving us a headstart to Spring.

Darkoath? Nah...

glad to see my immediate guess was correct 👀 new marauders finally???

35 minutes ago, The Lost Sigmarite said:

It was a great H&B episode, it touched on some pretty mature themes for Warhammer, mainly colonisation. I was rooting for the Darkoath at the end, even if they're chaos worshippers. Great way to nuance Chaos, even if they're bad imo, they were not evil and didn't deserve to have their land colonised by Sigmarites. 

And yeah the episode had some really cool concepts shown. Obviously the cogfort and freeguild soldiers (even if they look different from the teased CoS minis), but the darkoaths looked different from the current chaos marauders/marauder horsemen on the store. So that could mean 2 things, either for CoS or StD. Knowing your vague way of dropping hints, maybe even for both. The cogforf would be Baneblade size if we had it in plastic. Would be weird to put on a base, even if baller as hell. Darkoaths though, must be easier to manufacture and store than a full cogfort...

I thought the most interesting part is that the tribe itself wasn't worshipping chaos--but because their leader was, the Freeguild have ALSO been losing people to the creature and have no reason to parlay with the tribe. One person was preventing any kind of dialogue between the two groups. That felt more like the point than "Azyrites bad because they're (re-)colonizing the Chaos-colonized Realms." Really interesting episode and I hope we see some actual room for more Redeemed and/or parlays between Order and Chaos humans.

If we do get new Darkoath this is what I would bet on. Those marauders aren't getting any younger, and they were noticeably passed over with the last STD wave.

Once again :

  • It's the Warcry logo (with Chaos iconography and weapons, maybe KB), so 100% Warcry Teaser (so no Dawnbringers add-on, Mauraudeurs replacements for AOS, etc.). 
  • @Whitefang refers to the H&B episode with Chaos Darkoath vs CoS
  • The Warcry Roadmap said no Chaos until next year (but only if we take the leaked "SCE vs Vampire Set " as the roadmap Summer Starter Set. If it's something else than we could have a surprise with the summer release slot).
  • We already have tons of Darkoaths in Warcry (and Underworld).

A TRUE TZEENTCHIAN RIDDLE

EDIT : my only hypothesis here : 

The Summer Starter Set isn't the SCE vs Vampires one, it's a brand new one with CoS vs Darkoath, like Ashes Of Faith for KT (out of nowhere unexpected Inquisition vs Chaos Cultists). The Darkoath in it may be Repackaged Darkoath Ravagers... Or another identical brand new kit. Or it's Kruleboyz vs Cities of Sigmar but then I don't understand the Hammer & Bolter reference....

Okay, so Warcry is definite from the logo.

The symbol bottom-left is very Kruleboyz, and we know a Destruction warband is coming, so I think this image is nodding to that.

Whitefang then points us to that episode, which has Cities folk in it. And we know an Order warband is coming… 

So we COULD be getting CoS vs Kruleboyz for Warcry on Sat?!

Getting some of those "little" mobile cover carts as Warcry terrain with some Cities scouts would be amazing (and may actually get me to try out Warcry)!

Yes, absolutely, either as a Summer Starer Set or as the first Season 2 boxed set expansion (it isn't confirmed that Warcry is moving to stand alone warband releases).

..... but then again, why refer to that very precise stand alone Hammer & Bolter Episode with CoS (other hints at Cities could be given) vs Darkoath (when the teaser itself has a Chaos Star mixed with the Warcry logo, and barbarian weapons..........).

GW has already said that the summer starter set for Warcry is just for new players and contains no new models, though.

Isn't that just the standard Warcry logo?

And we also don't have Chaos on the roadmap (and the starter already leaked*), and the shield's colours look a bit like the new Hammerhal ones (but with this little info that's neither here nor there 😛)

Ahh yes it does ring a bell.... Was it plainly stated by GW, or just an inference from the at-the-time-thought-confirmed SCE vs Vampire leaked set ?

EDIT : @Asbestress yeah you are 100% right my mistake for the logo and star.

We only have three options anyway :

  1. The no-new-model Summer Starter Set (SCE vs Vampire or Repackaged Darkoath Ravagers vs not-new kit ???)
  2. The Season 2 first exanpsion Order vs Destruction (so Cities vs Kruleboyz ???)
  3. A Stand Alone new Warcry kit for Season 2.

Then again, n°2 and n°3 do not match the H&B "CoS vs Darkoath" reference...

Either it's a surprise Darkoath box or Whitefang was referring to the Cities content from it.

Either way, this combined with the surprise Skaven has me exponentially more hyped than I anticipated to be (just expecting a single Cities kit still 😛)!
