Rumor recap for Warhammer 40,000 11th Edition (from launch-week coverage)

The speaker frames the entire video as a compilation of rumors/speculation ahead of 11th edition’s launch, emphasizing that none of it should be treated as confirmed.

Space Marines: second-wave releases and codex-related changes

  • New Space Marine Captain on a bike is rumored, described as an Outrider Captain with an apparent multi-part multipart kit possibility and potential customization/pose differences.
  • New/updated Dreadnought: a Venerable Dreadnought at a “new scale” is the speaker’s biggest desired Space Marine rumor.
  • Codex-supported re-releases: items from the launch box set are expected to be re-released in the codex with multi-part (multipart) versions, including Vanguard Veterans.
  • Legends concern for Firstborn: the speaker reports a major rumor that almost all Firstborn units (except Land Raider and Rhino) would move to Legends, which they strongly dislike—especially because they want options like Predators/Whirlwinds retained in mainstream rules.

Orks: major second-wave unit additions

The speaker claims Orks are set for a “boatload” of new stuff, including:

  • a new truck
  • a new Battlewagon
  • a newly detailed Nazdreg character
  • Arc Bikers (already revealed via terrain/prepainted previews)
  • Burna Boyz
  • additional ongoing support already in motion, implying a large expansion overall

Army refresh rumors in 11th Edition

Grey Knights

  • The speaker says Grey Knights have struggled in 10th edition (with rules uncertainty mentioned), and cites a problem: Kaldor Draigo is no longer a model in their codex.
  • Rumor: a major Grey Knight refresh, likely including:
    • updates to Terminators/Paladins to match the scale of modern Space Marine ranges
    • Kaldor Draigo returning as a physical model
    • possible additional characters/model additions

Kill Team rumors:

  • a Grey Knight Kill Team is said to still be a floating rumor
  • a Legion of the Damned Kill Team is also rumored, potentially starting as just a squad (not necessarily a full range unless it sells well)

Dark Angels

  • After a Deathwing refresh in 10th edition, the speaker reports a rumored Ravenwing refresh in 11th edition.
  • They hope to see new model support such as:
    • a rumored new “Samuel” model
  • Clarifications are unclear on whether Ravenwing rules/models will be delivered via upgrade kits or separate releases (with comparisons to existing multipart Outriders, Land Speeders from the box, etc.).

Eldar / Xenos (Dark Eldar and Exodites)

Dark Eldar refresh: rumored to include:

  • new Kabalite warriors
  • a new “Vescous/Vet” centerpiece model (described as on a slave barge), with the speaker noting older-model “exposure” would not return because it’s no longer GW-appropriate
  • hints of a redone/new barge type, though the speaker worries it might not be “enough” without additional supporting units

Exodites:

  • rumored to arrive in 11th edition starting as a Kill Team, later potentially expanding into a full range
  • the speaker strongly hopes they feature dino mounts / the iconic Exodite aesthetic

Kill Team cross-rumor ideas

The speaker floats scenarios like:

  • Ork Nob Kill Team (also rumored)
  • comparing it against Legion of the Damned as a thematic match-up (Armageddon-era context mentioned from a prior video)

Chaos: bikers

A long-running rumor is claimed to be finally coming in 11th edition:

  • new Chaos bikers
  • an HQ called Doom Rider

The speaker speculates whether Doom Rider would be tied to a faction-specific lineup (e.g., Emperor’s Children/Slaanesh) or presented as a broader Chaos release.

“Tower of the rumors”: “Codex order” predictions

The speaker repeats the rumor that the first four codex releases this year are:

  1. Space Marines
  2. Orks
  3. T’au
  4. Adeptus Custodes

They present this as expected but still unconfirmed.

Big one: Plastic Warhound Titan

Final “major rumor”:

  • a plastic Warhound Titan (not the smaller/Legion Imperialis scale)

Timing rumor:

  • it should be announced by end of 2026

Additional note:

  • the speaker hopes it will be priced competitively and is excited to add it to their AdMech “Night Force” collection.

Presenters / contributors

  • Unspecified (the video appears to be presented by a single speaker/host; no other contributors are named in the subtitles).
