The latest Rumor Engine is here and it looks like we’ve got some bolted on additions from Games Workshop in this teaser image.

Weclome to another Tuesday and a brand new Rumor Engine. Now, I’ve already made up my mind about this one. So I’m just going to stop and let you see it for yourself before I sway your judgement. So have a look and we’ll go from there…

Last week the Rumour Engine showed us a pretty standard rock and thought it was clever, and this week it’s brought us something else that looks vaguely rock-like… though a good bit more complicated. Is it a rock? It looks like it might have some metal and wood attached, so it’d be a pretty advanced rock if you ask us.

Rumor Engine: Bolt-on Accessories

Alright, I have a strong opinion about this one but I’m also willing to be convinced otherwise. That said, when I see bolts like that, rough metal working, and battle damage I can’t help but think of one faction: Orks. This one has to be Orks.

It’s got all the signs of orky craftsmanship. While it’s not the most elegant metal working Orky goods are hardy and functional. There’s nothing wrong with that in the Grimdark!

So if this is an orky contraption, the next question is “so what sort of orky contraption is it?” Based on the shape I’m going to say it’s a turret of some kind.

I could be wrong on that front but I’m still convinced this is orky. If it IS a turret does that mean we’ve got a new orky vehicle on the way? Or some other mounted squig-thing? Your guess is as good as mine on that front.

So here is where I kick it over to you. If you’ve got any ideas about what this one could be drop us a line in the comments. For now, I’m going with something orky. I bet they are gearing up for the next edition just like the rest of us…

 

Will it be more Beastboyz or something more traditional for the orks…
