40K RUMORS: Post 8th Xenos Plans
There is a new set of 40k rumors covering what Xenos will be focusing once 8th is here to stay.
Everyone and their brother knows Warhammer 40,000’s 8th Edition is on the way next month. The big question is… THEN WHAT?
Industry professionals tell BoLS the following:
Onto the Xenos
Xenos won’t be getting attention till 2018
Orks and Tyranids will be first out of the gate
Look for campaign book to focus on the the unforeseen results of Inquisitor Kryptman’s gamble – the Octarius War. When Orks and Tyranids fight – bad things can happen…
There will be other faction Xenos IC dropped in here and there next year outside of their full armybooks, probably in various Triumvirate box sets.
Earlier this week we brought you this:
Look for a focus on the big villains of the Grimdark this year (2017) – Chaos and their struggle against he Imperium
GW is working to make Chaos return to their rightful place as the primary antagonists of the Grimdark.
GW is liking the 3-model “Triumvirate” sets, so look for these to return after 8th launches later this year.
Ranges mentioned for particular attention this year are:
- CSMs
- Astartes
- Ad Mech
Next year will see attention moving to popular non-Imperial armies who have been long neglected by the Studio.
