Any indication of when we will start seeing more Crucible Guard teasers? I could have swore that we were already getting Grymkin teasers at this time last year.

There were also quite a few concept art released as part of it. For such a small company it was a decent arg.

I like the look of that model. I doubt I will have the cash to start CG*, but I will certainly be following their teasers with interest.
*Another faction that starts with a 'C', I see. 😆

Nope - the Crucible Guard is the new mini-faction for next year. They are the military wing for the Order of the Golden Crucible. Have a lot of high tech stuff like jet pack troopers and tanks. And robots apparently.

Indeed. And also where they've been using steam engines for centuries even though there's apparently oil reserves if the Protectorate is anything to go by.
Still, I'm digging that model, and the rocket men they showed earlier in the year. If they keep this up I think they'll convince me.

A) maybe the tanks aren't treaded but still use wheels.so they can't really go off roading. And B) the nation that has access to all the oil reserves in the iron kingdoms is a nation of religious zealots. If i remember my history correctly religion and technological advancement don't go hand in hand. Remember the dark ages? Well me neither but history tells us there was too much Christianity telling people technology was bad or something. And bonus C) bipedal is honestly way better than treads,its just balancing something bipedal takes some very very advanced balancing hardware like an inner ear canal.

I seem to remember an interview with Matt Wilson a year or so ago, in which he mentioned tanks, long before crucible guard had been mentioned as a faction. I think he said they were avoiding tracks, because they felt too sci fi.
(If you want to look it up, it was the Glory and Coin podcast, I think it was the one with Lock n Load coverage where they interviewed a bunch of PP staffers)
