GW Rumor Engine: Top Notch Top Hatch

Games Workshop has a new Rumor Engine out and this one looks strangely familiar. Time for the “Top Men” to work on this one.

It’s a Top Hatch for something, which is likely an Imperial transport of some type. How do we know? Well take a look for yourself:

Okay – I guess it could be a side hatch to be fair. But I feel like we’ve seen this before. Check out the Taurox:

Now look at it from the top down:

So what does this mean? Are we getting a new Taurox kit? Maybe one with some different options? Or Maybe it’s related to the upcoming Sisters of Battle in some capacity. The hinge is very slightly different but the rest of the hatch is virtually identical. What if it’s Imperial but more traitorous?

You know these guys are probably going to need stolen Imperial transports, too… You think an evil commisar/evil Ogryn are going to ride in the back of Chimera?

At this point, we know it’s a top hatch and it’s got some Imperial flavor – what will it end up being? Guess we’ll find out soon enough.

“Hey, it’s a Taurox 2.0, can it get some front axle wheels this time? You know, like a Half-track?”
