GW: Rumor Engine “Holding On By A Thread”

Games Workshop has a new Rumor Engine today and it’s going to have the internet twisted into knots figuring this one out!

We’ve sent our intern down to the deepest, darkest tunnels beneath Games Workshop to retrieve another gleaning from the mighty Rumour Engine – all we got back was this image and a typewritten note saying “send another”:

Interesting! I’m not sure if this is resin or plastic first off – but it does look like it’s been painted and then the color was digitally removed. This could be a steel cable or just a plain rope of some type. That’s important because if it’s some type of wound steel cable it’s probably 40k related. If it’s hempen rope, it’s probably AoS based.

A Steel Cable

Could this be for a new type of terrain feature? Or maybe it’s part of someone’s wargear – but if it is, their gear seems to be in disrepair. Perhaps it’s second-hand equipment, or salvaged gear. Or maybe the owner is of the “Undead” variety. There are a lot of implications from this twisted piece of rope.

What do you think it could be a part of and for what system? Let us know your wild theories and best guesses in the comments below!
