Imperial Guard Week 1: 3 Big Releases


The Adeptus Munitorum or Imperial Guard (assuming the rumors are correct on the name change), is set for a big April. To start that off, rumors have us getting 3 big releases. All three we have had rumors of in the past, the most recent being Ogryns/Bullgryns and Stormtrooper/Veterans. The odd man out is a large transport that this rumor bit mentions.


Please remember that these are rumors, salt is always required. Assuming that we we see a new hull type for the Imperial Guard tanks, it seems very likely that more tanks could be based off of this chasis.

Week 1: three kits:
- Ogryns/Bullgryns plastic combo-kit (one unit with ranged weapons, the other with giant shields and close combat weapons)
- Stormtroopers/Veterans combo-kit
- Unseen "Big transport" kit.

This new vehicle is said to be able to move entire squads of Ogryns and other stuff (so apparently more transport space than the Chimera). This kit is said to be roughly Land Raider sized. Previous "big tank" chatter over a month ago has also described it as being influenced by the Forgeworld Malcador's design.
