'BIG' SUMMER REVEAL SHOW! Hopes & Predictions! Are they finally coming?!

Main summary

Key takeaways

Gaming

Storyline / Setting (what the speaker is “covering”)

  • Warhammer 40,000 (10,000 years in the future): The focus is on factions and upcoming army releases, not a narrative story arc. The speaker discusses expected Codex releases and model waves for Space Marines and Orks.

  • Warhammer: The Horus Heresy (10,000 years before 40k): The speaker wants more model refreshes/updates (especially infantry) for traitor/loyalist-era factions, including Primarchs and major character sculpts.

  • Warhammer: The Old World: Speculated Chaos updates, including a teased two-headed dragon and possible rule tweaks.

  • Kill Team: Rumors suggest a new Exodite-themed expansion, with Kill Team acting as the start of a larger range.

  • Necromunda: Rumored new Gang box (likely Escher vs Goliath) with possible rule changes—though the speaker urges caution toward rumors.

  • Legion Imperialis: The speaker wants big-picture releases that feel like flagship content—specifically Primarch-scale models.

Gameplay Highlights & Key Points (strategies / tips / speculation)

Mostly product- and rules-speculation rather than direct gameplay strategy.

Warhammer 40,000

Upcoming Codex order (predicted)

  • Space Marines first
  • Then Orks as Wave 2, following what the speaker believes is GW’s “normal” release order

Wave 2 / model expectations (rumor-driven)

  • A new Captain on an Outrider bike (framed as the “trickle leading to an avalanche” of biker content)

  • Potential Venerable Dreadnought and/or a flame-based dreadnought for Primaris-style forces (unclear whether these rumors point to the same unit)

  • Possible additional remakes/options such as:

    • grav-cannon
    • vulkanic/flamer-style options (speculating on “generic Space Marine” remakes)

What probably won’t be shown yet

  • The speaker thinks Rhinos/Land Raiders are too early for this specific reveal cycle.

Terrain emphasis (gameplay-adjacent)

  • Expectation of more prepainted terrain, possibly with objective-based terrain
  • Rumor: terrain could evolve from flat cardboard toward more 3D destroyed-vehicle/destroyed-structure objective pieces

Community interaction mechanic

  • Mentions GW’s call for submitting results and predicts the reveal may include a new Space Marine or Orc model based on reported timelines.

Warhammer: The Horus Heresy

General stance

  • The speaker argues against focusing on rule arguments and instead wants plastic updates—especially for units previously stuck in resin-only form.

Preferred direction

  • More infantry-based releases, with updated foot-soldier options as a priority.

Character/model predictions (rumor-driven)

  • New/second models for Primarchs
  • Possible new Rogal Dorn in plastic (described as “battle-hardened”)
  • Jacket Khan on a bike is mentioned as a rumor that “fizzled out”
  • Strong hope for new Abaddon and Justaer-era updates in plastic to match newer aesthetic/scaling

Requested “spice” from the community

  • Asks Horus Heresy players what they want revealed—implicitly prioritizing Primarchs and major characters.

Warhammer: The Old World

Teased/expected major release

  • A chaos two-headed dragon (the speaker claims to have seen/showed a leaked image, with a warning that it could spoil the fun)

Broader rumors

  • Chaos getting a refresh (suggested by evidence that allegedly disappeared from GW’s website)
  • Possible small core-rule update (hypothetically referenced as “1.1 / 1.5 / 2.0” jumps)

Design preferences

  • Loves rank-and-file presentation and square bases, implying releases should continue supporting massed formations.

Kill Team

Big rumored theme

  • Exodites as the next major Kill Team idea:
    • Start with a Kill Team box
    • Then expand into a full range, similar to how earlier Kill Team starters grew into broader product lines

Additional rumored pairings

  • Mentions possible involvement of Legion of the Damned (including an in-universe conflict reference against Orks)

Matchup speculation

  • Personal hope: Legion of the Damned vs Exodites (not sure GW would do it, but it’s described as exciting)

Core “what matters” takeaway

  • Kill Team releases tend to have strong model quality, which is the main draw.

Necromunda

Rumored release

  • A new Necromunda box set, likely Escher vs Goliath

Rule-change concern

  • Rumor suggests rules may become less exciting/blander, leading to potential community “panic” (the speaker argues this may reflect personal taste rather than a universal issue)

Advice / stance

  • Repeated reminder: treat rumors as rumors and wait for the actual release to avoid panic.

Legion Imperialis

What feels missing

  • The game has many units, but the speaker feels it lacks Primarch presence.

Hype reset idea

  • Expects a big statement could be mini Primarchs (or at least Primarch-scale hero units).

Community request

  • Asks Legion Imperialis players what would bring back excitement.
