GROSSES RUMEURS POUR WARHAMMER 40K ET THE OLD WORLD !

Main summary

Key takeaways

News and Commentary

Overview

The video is a roundup of recent/ongoing Warhammer rumors, presented as a “compilation” with some speculation and commentary. The host focuses mainly on Kill Team and Warhammer 40,000, then ends with Warhammer: The Old World.

Kill Team (next edition: expected in September)

September release expectation

The host says the next Kill Team big release should land in September, timed with major Space Marine and Ork codex releases.

Space Marines rumor: “Legion of the Damned”-type concept

A rumor suggests a Space Marine-related unit tied to the “Dane Legion” (the name comes up via lore speculation). The host describes it as resembling a “Ghost Rider in space” style arrival:

  • When battle is hopeless, the unit appears from another dimension/parallel universe
  • Depicted in black armor with bones
  • With heads on fire
  • The unit wrecks everything

This is framed as potentially fitting Kill Team because teams often use small groups (5–6 models).

Nobs / Ork presence

The host expects Nobs to return in Kill Team and proposes a potential matchup idea:

  • Legion of the Damned vs Nobs

A key complaint is that Games Workshop sometimes updates rules/data sheets quickly after a codex release, which can make the earlier codex feel “invalidated” within months. The host wants Nobs/units introduced with the right timing/photos/rules to avoid this.

Exodites rumor

The host highlights a rumor for an Exodite Kill Team—“Eldar on dinosaurs”—likely as a standard-sized infantry-style unit, not multiple separate dinosaur squads.

The host’s reasoning is that Exodites sell extremely well (referencing Eldar-related product success), and could become part of a larger future Eldar faction release.

Grey Knight Kill Team

Another rumor is a Grey Knights Kill Team. The host doubts it would center on heavy Terminator options (too strong/tame for Kill Team). Likely candidates include:

  • Purifiers (flame/white-helmet unit concept)
  • Jump-pack style options like Interceptors and other jump units

Terminator-focused content is treated as unlikely for the format.

Most likely Kill Team candidates (as mentioned)

  • Legion of the Damned
  • Nobs
  • Exodites
  • Grey Knights

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marines (Armageddon box-related expectations)

The host expects a new multipart kit for Space Marine outrider-style motorcycles, hoping for more weapon variety. They also expect:

  • A motorcycle captain to improve roster options vs the existing motorcycle chaplain
  • A new/updated Dreadnought “with spear-flame”, framed as a Venerable-style variant
    • gold accents / First Company vibe
    • possibly with a flamethrower component
  • Redesigns/refreshes to infantry kits (e.g., Intercessors with corrected missing weapons/options like Thunder Hammer/Power Fist equivalents)
  • An Eradicator described as a “new feature”
  • Updates to other units’ accessory choices, with some units potentially released “as is” if they already have the correct options

The host interprets the hype as partly driven by novelty (new Primaris-style distinctions such as a Primaris motorcycle captain) and partly by broader kit overhauls/feature additions.

Warhammer 40,000: Orks

The host points to confirmation from Games/FAQ for an Ork box—specifically that Nobs:

  • have access to power/weapon options
  • are on the correct base size category

For the Ork box content, the host anticipates:

  • Nobs
  • War Truck / Battlewagon-related updates
  • Other support units

They also mention some expected weapon-option limitations (some units may not get extra options because they’re already “loaded”).

Commentary on Flash Gitz rework

Rumors suggest Flash Gitz are being redone. The host’s reaction is that it would be disappointing because Flash Gitz were already purchased recently, while also suggesting Meganobz may not be the first target for rework (or at least not in the immediate cycle).

Warhammer 40,000: General 11th Edition expectations

The host frames 11th edition as bringing three big faction refreshes “in the near/future force” (based on rumor/planning logic). Mentioned factions:

  • Grey Knights
    • a major overhaul involving Terminators/Paladins/strike squad/purifiers/purgation-style elements
    • uncertainty about baby-carrier options and how old units will be treated
  • Drukhari (Dark Eldar)
    • an extensive overhaul “especially witches”
    • potentially including remakes of key units such as Kabalite Warriors, Gorgons, Scourges, and potentially ships
    • speculation that if the cycle slips, it might happen sooner than the usual timing
  • Dark Angels (Ravenwing)
    • expecting Sammael and Ravenwing motorcycle/Black Knight refreshes
    • hoping for stylish new kits

Warhammer: The Old World (core 7 / “Old World 2” base box rumor)

Battalions “lost” or inconsistent availability

The host says Old World lost battalions, with battalions seeming to disappear/reappear unpredictably, despite confirmation that some products exist and will be released.

“Old World 2 core 7” starter-style box rumor

A major rumor is introduced:

  • A Warhammer: The Old World “2 points / core 7” starter-style box
  • priced around €200
  • described as “Old World 2 core 7”
  • likely releasing within ~3 months (summer timeframe)

Expected contents/setting:

  • Chaos Warriors vs Grand Cathay
  • The host claims a Chaos Warriors rework was previously hinted at about a year and a half ago
  • The host speculates the box could also include updated/added pieces, such as more big-cat/lion-themed models tied to DLC content

Release timing theory

The host discusses GW’s typical release cycle and why it might avoid releasing too close to January, while acknowledging that other games (40K/Sigmar) occupy certain summer windows.

They also speculate the box could include additional miniatures beyond just the two factions—possibly new Chaos Knights on horseback—to support cross-use of fantasy/40K cavalry aesthetics.
