Don't know about Gamma as it's more about board games I think Adepticon is safer bet but who knows ;)

Last year GAMA saw teasers of Shadow War Armageddon, Shadespire and more importantly a full reveal of the Kharadrons Overlords range. So no :P

has got a Point, I would argue that with a Adepticon following right on the heels of GAMA, we will see a teaser at Gamma and the full reveal at Adepticon a week later. This gives GW time to build up some hype and at the same time promote the more "board game oriented stuff" shown at GAMA.And they teased at LVO that we will see three (3!) new things at Adepticon...

But either way, at the end of March 25 latest we will probably a huge deal more about what is coming in Q2 2018

Yeah that's true. 

But I would have thought that Adpticon would be more 40k focused. This year, this summer also, must have some 40k releases ;)

And this month we have T'au, Forgebane and Necrons, then Drukhari (Harlequin and Imperial Knights).

Last year, GW showed at GAMA 2 boxed games (SWA and Shadespire) and 2 AOS releases : the re-cut stater set Thunder and Blood, and the full KO range. 

We totally could see a new army, and here the more probable IMO is Idoneth Deepkin...

Which could be counted as a boardgame, as it is more a boxed entry game than a full table top release.

 

My expectations would be: At GAMA we see a new gang for Necromunda, a team for BB, tow warbands for AoS, Boxed games of some kinde, maybe a teaser and first "reveal" for Ad Tit, and a teaser for AoS and maybe 40k. At AdCon there will be the full reveal for AoS/idroneth with maybe a bit teasing for what is to come next, and a hard focus on 40k, with the next codex' listed as well as a new faction of some kind, and maybe other stuff. IF I am wrong and we see stuff earlier or in another order, hell I still will be happy

I don’t care about 40k, so my predictions only for AoS:

-Gamma: Idoneth and two shadespire bands.

-Adepticon: second starter set, WH Underworlds season 2

That. Would. Be. Amazing. 

But ...

I think that there won't be so many news - and that a good  part of it will be for 40k (based on the past reveals anyway).

New Codexes and Boxed games aside (both stand alone and Specialist games like Necro or WHU), maybe we'll see a new 40k model line (that could be Knights, or something Chaos like World Eaters or Emperor's Children), and maybe a new Campaign set / a new Primarch coming this summer. 

That means for AOS we "just" have the expectation of an (already named) new army (the Idoneth Deepkin), and maybe some future Battletomes / factions news (Moonclan Grot, Darkoath, Stormcast Ruination Chamber, etc.). 

And alas I think, even if it comes in June, that March is too early for a Second edition stater set reveal...

I think they can show a lot of stuff at both events :

- new Warhammer Quest 

- some kind of Quest-alike Wh40k game 

- some new boxed games

- AoS Idoneth and maybe AoS 2/new faction tease

- next codexes for Wh40 - Harlies (could come with extra hero  like Necrons) etc

- new Wh40 army (as GW doesn't want big releases until codexes are updating but I can easily see Ynnari with 2-3 boxes of units or Sisters of Battle)

- Shadespire 2 remaining bands. 

- Shadespire season 2 with two bans teased. 

- new Necromunda gang

- new Bloodbowl teams. 

And I think we could see all of this stuff during both events. Also it doesn't matter for me when they will see what, I still think Idoneth will be shown at Adepticon as all those news would be very exciting (as I love Quest and and I am Harlequin/Ynnari Wh40k). Lots of amazing stuff is coming

In the recent white dwarf there was a letter with someone asking about a stand-alone Inquistion game and gw answered with REDACTED! So whatever they were hinting at will likely be at one of these events. There is also Adeptus titanicus which was delayed into this year,  new bloodbowl teams, shadespire and Necromunda gangs, the rest of the imperial knights, the new orks etc.

There is an awful lot of non AOS stuff they could be showing. Having said that Gw presumably intending to show something at the AOS open day. That content will be added to whatever they already had planned for AOS at these two events so it is possible we will see a lot of stuff in the next couple of weeks.

There is this uncertainty whether they tease something or use REDACTED as a running gag concerning anything remotely concerning the Inquisition.

 

IIRC on war-of-sigmar either Atia or Bob dropped something about Inquisitor in 28mm some time ago !

Let's not forget that Warhammer World AoS Open Day has been cancelled one week ago.

Event has been announced to be later rescheduled but the new date has not been announced yet.

I couldn't imagine that no AoS content would have been revealed at this event.

I'm therefore confident that some AoS news will be announced and showed at GAMMA.

Someone posted this on dakkadakka:

 

News about Idonteh Deepkin

 

Rumours, take with a grain of salt....

 

"he deepkin are not exactly the good guys in fact they are not exactly order per-se, they play more like the dark eldar, and their main reason for fighting is to capture the souls of others in other words they raid to steal souls to feel and have emotions but can't retain it for long. Think mermaids but not the disney version but the historical one.

 

The deepkin can fight on land as if they are still in water, in fact the models looks as if they are still swimming, this is because when they raid the area has a spell casted on it that allows them to fight normally, The models hair for example looks like its still floating in water best example of the effect is like the latest pirates of the caribbean movie where salazar mates if you notice their hair is somewhat as if submerge and floating underwater. The looks are somewhat mix greek and bit dark in nature.

 

Their mounts for the calvary like models are on shark looking things. There is a turtle too which is its center piece model. There is about 8 kits all together which will take up the whole month leading up to AOS 2. "

From tga to the Internet to tga. It was first posted right here in the Idoneth Deepkin thread.

Well, I really hope you are both correct! It would be amazing! :-D

Still not sure why they think the more evilish aelf factions have to be in Order as opposed to Destruction, who could really use some pretty minis.

 

Nonetheless Idoneth sound cool.

Well, both evil elvish factions are not so much about destroying stuff, they are still about civilisation - admittedly a very twisted murderous civilisation, but wasn't there as saying back in Naggaroth, that the Durchii are the most civilised race since they know at least a 1000 ways to kill someone ;-)
