I have this weird feeling that the next two battletomes are going to be announced on Saturday...

Also  in completely unrelated news a metawatch article.

Beasts of Chaos dominating the meta? What parallel dimension did I fall into?

I'd love to see the OBR tome announced. That faction has a lot of potential even with just a rules update. I want to see what they look like with good, thematic 3rd edition rules instead of 2nd edition beta test rules.

There is also a chance we will get a new Arkhan model with their battletome. His old body was destroyed by Eltharion during Broken Realms, after all.

Plus, I want to know what models I need to buy to finish my 2000 point list. Will Immortis Guard finally be playable? Probably not, but I'd like to know.

I don't think we will see a new Arkhan. I'm expecting some sort of priest hero since OBR doesn;t have a priest.

I completely agree thought that this army doesn't really NEED new units, just the rules tweaked a bit to be on course for 3.0. I'm super excited for this release!!

Hmm, @KingBrodd buys into Beasts of Chaos just before it's announced they are meta leaders. Has he done a deal with Tzeentch to get early access to GW info?

So what do we think 2 chaos tomes or are they going to mix it up with 1 death? I would assume Khorne and SBG with 1 new vampire foot hero casue we obviously need one and a khorne priest for the laughs :P  maybe they could tie them to warcry warbands ?

There is a open day at warhammer world where they'll be showcasing some new stuff. 

So we'll at the very least see the next 2 battletomes. 

Oh yeah, so will they be putting the Warhammer world reveals online?

Yes, if they do it how they did before. 

When I went to a open day a few years ago (new Gloomspite and genestealer cults were shown), every hour or so they put something new on display and put an article out online. 

Ironically, I saw each new thing first online as the new stuff wasn't announced at all and just put on display in one of the many cabinets there on the day.

So is the showcase tomorrow or Saturday or both? I assume Saturday as that's when the books will be revealed (also hope whatever unit(s) coming with each is shown too!).

 

On a personal note I collect Slaanesh and Vamps so I hope for those, but seeing Khorne and/or OBR would still be cool. Hoping we get a new Valkia, don't collect Khorne but would be tempted to get her to ally into my StD!

I feel for 30k players for today's reveal, being very underwhelming. 5 sets of despoiler weapons, but you need 2 sets to actually make a minimum squad, and 4 sets to make a full squad, AND it's resin...

But, I'm looking forward to seeing what 2 of the 4 remaining battletomes we'll see. It's really a coin-toss. I'm personally guessing they'll do 1 death and 1 chaos. Despite Soulblight being near bottom of the meta according to that last article, I think Bonereapers need it a little more, so Khorne + Bonereapers would be a nice reveal.

I believe Soulblight have already been getting reboxed, so it seems a given it'll be them I'm afraid.
