We already know we are kinda getting guard since we have already seen vehicles, and I’m pretty excited to see sisters as they are all I played in the remaster and cannot wait to do AI 4v4’s of Marines/Admech/guard/Sisters vs an all Ork Wagghhhhhhg, when it comes to grey knights and custodians they were more of a thought experiment and I doubt we will see either especially grey knights sadly, I thought about doing Imperial agents as a fun wild card but obviously did not get far as the unit roster was way less than I imagined.

As title says, I always loved making player homes mine but as somebody who always played Argonians/Orcs my houses always ended up feeling more just like a trophy room, I loved hearthfire but became disappointed with the 1 styling, I recently downloaded a mod for Argonian styled housing and immediately felt so much more immersed in my character, I get that the building styles would be generic/Nordic since it’s Skyrim but I really hope in ES6 if we get the chance to have a small plot of land with a hearthfire styled home builder that there’s Race specific building types even if they are small. You could have your own characters race style unlocked with having to complete a small quest or buy the schematics for the other styles. That’s pretty much all

As title says I made a mock up of what I would want to maybe see if the chaos factions got another DLC pack, this was caused by the end times Archaon news and those old rumours of Egrimm/Moonclaw dlc/Packs, obviously I don’t see these all coming true and some of the units are probably up to canonicty debate but wanted to make this anyways for fun and to see what there was. I did not include Slaanesh as I could only come up with Gilberion LH, Mortal Pleasure seekers and basilisk and I didn’t include Nurgle for the opposite reason as there was too much to add, we all know the Glottkin/Maggoth riders/Blightkings but there’s also the Mordheim Circus and all the other guys from the Vermintide games. And I also did not include Norsca because everything I would add would not be chaos related, Let me know what you would add if you could.

I’m still tinkering with the Layout of these posts right now so any feedback is useful, I’m a little tired so I didn’t give any faction mechanics but I’m sure you guys have good ideas. I liked the idea of each Added faction getting their own Character and short Campaign so I chose Doom rider as I thought he was a fun character and would compliment a fast paced play style and the idea is that he zips around the map with his bikers and fiends striking the vanguard forces of your enemies before their reinforcements can show up. I was originally going to do a post for Dark Eldar but decided to do another new faction as I do like the idea of smaller factions getting the spotlight, and I know the bikers are not apart of EC but they really should and it’s not a stretch, and the sonic Hellbrute is just a must ATP. The roster is sadly not as Flashy as deserving of Slaanesh but I think it’s still capable of having a fun defined play style.

As title says I know that The Bladed Cog is intertwined with the Machine cult and that they use Skiitari but other that Skiitari and Magos do you think they would actually make the most/Best use of?

Didn’t know these guys actually had a title as familiar, would have been pretty cool to get them as a gretchin/Nurgling like swarm and like the gretchin could be used to Sit around on objectives and be annoying, but a small horde unit seems a bit redundant

Did you finally have enough? Is it time to rid Kronos of the stumpies? Well then send your rolling tank columns and swaths of meat shields in the direction of the Votann, but first you must deal with the ambushes of pioneers and Yaegirs picking off your front line and then the suicidal charges of the berserk’s. You’ll know your getting close to the Votanns home when earthshakers start peppering the street as you try to outmaneuver the devastating volleys of mortars, and finally your at the front line only to be greeted by a barrage of heavy energy blasts from the kin and their defences, and as you gather yourself to your feet the Votann and their ironkin are slowly advancing putting down the sorry mutts you call your allies on their march to your fortress, and as you hurrily attempt to replenish your armaments to stop the incoming steel wave enclosing on your HQ it dawns on you that to assault the home of the Votann was truly a futile idea.

I don’t know much about the Votann TBH and was just playing around with ideas, I think DOW is a great format to explore these smaller faction ranges, some of these ideas are probably pretty poor so please give me your ideas or how you would do it, also sorry for spelling mistakes if there are any.

GSC is one of if not my fav faction and with how excited I am for DOW4 and hoping it lasts long enough to get most factions I decided to do a quick mock up for The Cults in the same style as the roster reveals of the current factions got. Obviously genestealers don’t have lots of models besides characters the bottom 4 are Tyranid/Guard units that could be a building chain that represents their day of ascension with complimentary units from guard/Tyranid without those units distracting from the actual GSC units. Please give me suggestions on what you think.

As title says I’m super into the Haemonculus covens and don’t get the chance to play much so am more into collection, with the rumours of a Drukhari refresh coming this edition I suspect we are getting new grotesques but do you think the other units will be refreshed or will they be safe? The Haemonculus looks a bit dated but the Cronos/Talos are fine? I just don’t want to spend the money just for the units to be outdated.
