OK, guys...

I can confirm that skavens are on their way I've just seen a photo of sprue that someone received by mistake.

This sprue contains some sort of multi-barrelled cannon (6 to be precise), with a single wheel, a pilot, a gunner and at least four ground servants (I assume they're pushing or manipulating something on this engine). There are two spheres, one of which is attached to a large pipe. The chassis of the machine is made of wood.

The photo isn't accurate enough to make out the date, but the guy said it’s marked 2024 on the sprue. For now, we're waiting for his agreement to publish the photo and a more precise version to get all this information.

Cheer up, @Skreech Verminking, @Garrac : the wait is coming to an end !

Interested to see if any of my remaining hopes for some current REs to be Cities will be dashed.

Also, Realms of Ruin update is coming at the end of March, and units will finally be able to automatically attack enemies when they are near. Better late than never I guess. Really hope they keep the game alive long term, hopefully with some faction DLC.

i think Im gonna need a paint picture version of this because I can't imagine what it's like, lol

Alltho, it has to be a sprue for a weapon team then because it really looks like your friend has seen a new sprue for the ratling gun. But weapon teams are manipulated by two skavens? Weird

As you can see now, it looks more like some kind of flak gun to me.

Also, do any of the RE that were not solved yet look to match something from the sprue?

That doesn't seem to be the case...

It looks like a cart with a turret kind of thing on it pulled by rats. Doesnt seem like it contains any of the RE. I am all for a wave of artillery across all factions.

Yeah, that might not be in the starter but that's definitely a push fit kit from the looks of things. It'd be fun to see if they can figure out how it goes together

Probably shouldn't be too hard to get it roughly into shape, but maybe not perfect. Those ETB kits can be pretty finicky if you aren't following the instructions step by step.

Also, Cities loses the Helblaster and now Skaven have it, so...

Skaven Demigryphs coming soon? Skaven Phoenix?

Alright, do we expect this to be talked about this weekend? Or is GW gonna play this leak off like they did the crypt guard sprues until Adepticon?

I can't speak about anything, I'm already playing FF7 Rebirth. One of my LoCs will get painted like a Chocobo.

Think about the conversion possibilities! It could be a nice addition to a scratch builder cogfort ;)

I think they would wait for adepticon, if they show it... it is not that far in time. Following the Leviathan pattern they should show a rat on adepticon, and maybe the gun appear in the trailer if it is part of the big box.

All Chorf memery aside (OK, I'll admit, I really wanted to post my newest Chorf creation that I literally made a few minutes ago because I am in desperate need for validation in form of forum reactions), I am very happy for all the ratboys, ratgirls and non-binary giant rats because hey, you deserve this. For too long has Skaven players been the most oppressed minority in this hobby (they got old sculpts)

Edit: maybe I needed to refresh the page 😆 

 

Came to see discussion about the rat engine, saw people asking for the pic, posted the pic, saw the pic had been posted 🤷🏻‍♀️

Let's hope the Chorf memery won't turn into a memory though.

I'm so clever Tzeentch just threw a cookie at me. 👌
