So according todays dev chat in twitch, the new morrow theme will be a merc only theme. Even though some cygnar caster can be taken, im sadface. Had hoped it would be a theme in bouth cygnar and merc. But we will see when the details are out.
Details thanks to LOS.

Very interesting! I hope this means we are getting some new Morrowan models; I've been looking forwards to Morrowans getting fleshed out for ages. As much as I do like the idea of running Morrowans alongside Thamarites or undead, it loses it luster a little bit when it's an actual theme rather than a broken pairing that was never intended... but still, it's pretty cool.

So Cygnar will gain no new themes, but neither does anything in hordes.
Khador, PoM, Infernals and Mercs will.

Well thats stupid seeing as all the morrowan models are cygnar models Blaize and precursion knights are both partisan and work in both cygnar and merc. There is no cygnar morrow models other than that ? We should have expected a partisan theme IMO, but sadly they didnt go that rout. Instead it seem to be a merc theme only. But they said that some cygnar models got a morrow tag added. Think they mention stryker. So you could use some cygnar stuff but it seems very restricted. Like extreme limited acces to cygnar casters. Rather suprising. So cygnar seems to get access to 2 very limited options. You can play one cygnar caster in the heart of darkness infernal theme. And you can play a limited cygnar stuff in the merc morrow theme.

Harlan Versh is also a Cygnar model. I know Im just bitter, but I bought and painted them all to play in my Cygnar and it feels dumb to be told that I can't use them in their intended theme

Maybe that will change in CID if enough people petition PP for it?

I would actually have preffered (or maybe that is still on the way after all) a Strangelight mini fraction, were all these models can be partisan of. But will these campaign themes and models actually be in steamroller? Or will they be kind of "theme only?"

If i remember correct PP have stated earlier that the new models and themes will be allowed also outside the new campaign.

All of the current Morrowans (Constanze, Versh, Precursers) are mercenaries, they're partisans, but still mercenaries first. As are all of the thamarites (Alexia, Ragman, Savio, Fiona),so making the Morrowan x Thamarite theme a merc theme makes more than sense, especially since the Church of Morrow is the leading religion in all human kingdoms bar Protectorate.
