The Rumour Thread


Recommended Posts

Completely off topic I'm aware, and self indulgent. But you can enter the GW completion to win a bunch of new Nids or Spacecast Eternals even if you didn't buy Leviathan. You just have to email GW with at least 150 words on why you like either Tyranids or Space Marines. I got a bit carried away doing this and thought some of you fine TGA folk might enjoy my musings. Spoiler tagged so not to cause clutter for those not interested 😀 (Mods please feel free to delete this post if it's not appropriate)

Big cannon lets go!

I'm not familiar enough with the subtleties of English language, but do you think there is an allusion to artillery and/or a firing unit in the use of the term "cracking" ?

I also bet that's what we'll get tomorrow (at least something that attacks from a distance).

A thought just occurred to me - does the reveal of Tahlia Vedra, Lioness of the Parch give us any indication that the Aqshy crusade will be the one to succeed?

I can see an argument both for and against - why make such a centrepiece model for the failed crusade, but also it could also be a great plot twist and give her a great narrative for seeking redemption in 4.0 and beyond. What do others think?

Yay! Plural miniatures 😀

I'm really glad the reveals are starting to pick up! Maybe we could actually see the Launch Set in early-mid August 😛

And Fusiliers would be just amazing! Or a cannon (with the plural being the crew)! Or anything gunpowder!

Cracking?

As in... cracking, skulls?
More ogors confirmed!

(Most likely just good old British slang, but could also be the cracking sound from gunpowder?)

Thanks for mentioning this. I wasn't aware it was an option, so I've just gone ahead and entered.

Also, lol at your submission 😄

Most, probably all, GW comps have a purchase/Warhammer+/etc free way to enter, usually buried in the terms and conditions.

Glad you enjoyed the submission. I have no doubts no one at GW will read it beyond an algorithm counting the words and checking it mentions either Nids or marines. I had fun though.

To what email shall one send those words?

I suspect it's a legal thing. If you make entry require a purchase, it begins gambling, which is likely subject to a bunch of additional regulation or possibly even illegal in some of the places the competition is held.

Of course GW doesn't advertise it too openly, because, ultimately, they do want you to buy Leviathan to enter.

Details are here under section 4.1.2 - Alternative Method of Entry.

I suspect it's important that you get the subject of the email exactly right, and make sure your entry is over 150 words. Also make sure to include something like "I love the Tyranids/Space Marines" just incase their algorithm checks, though it honestly wouldn't surprise me if the Lorem Ipsum text would pass.

I think you have until 10am UK time today to enter.

Plural miniatures but singular reveal, my guess is that we are getting a unit previewed. Hope it is multiple reveals but I am expecting only one.
