This new Rumor Engine from Games Workshop has me thinking we’re about to get some new vehicular destruction coming to Warhammer.

We’re back here on a Tuesday to dissect a new Rumor Engine from Games Workshop. I’ve already got a few ideas but you should take a look before my thoughts taint your own…

“Living in a grim dark future full of violence and death is no excuse for ignoring safe road-crossing conduct, so let us take a moment to say how excited we are that the 41st Millennium is finally getting its first set of traffic lights in plastic. No, we didn’t check if there were any already before making this statement, stop worrying and look at these.”

Rumor Engine Fire The Missiles!

Traffic light jokes aside, this looks a lot like some sort of missile pods on a vehicle to me. I also think these might be slightly chaos-flavored based on the spikes on the trim. I do also wonder if these could possibly be a part of a new unit coming for the Chaos Knights…because that would be pretty sweet!

This could be a weapon system designed to slot in where the heavy stubber is. In fact, the curve of the metal around it seems to line up fairly well…

Here’s a quick mock-up I did and you can see that it DOES fit that spot pretty well. Kinda makes one wonder, doesn’t it?

Chaos and Imperial Knights are on the horizon, too. So I’m certainly not going to rule that out. I can’t unsee the Knight connection now.. That said, I need your eyes on this one. Maybe you’re seeing something I’m not and if that’s the case, let us know in the comments. If this isn’t for a Knight perhaps it’s for a Dreadnought? Who knows?! That’s why we need your theories as well.

 

Chaos Knight missile pod or something else entirely?
