Following your rules, here's one model I'd like to add for each of the factions I play in the order you presented them in: Necrons: More anti-psychic, so something like the shield generator suggestion in the video except it denies psychic powers within a certain range (or at least makes it harder to perform them). Tyranids: Just like in the video, a larger Carnifex-type unit that acts as a knight equivalent. Bonus points if it copies an Ork trait from being based on Ork DNA harvested from the Octarius War. Daemons: More Chaos Undivided daemons, like some sort of troops unit. Bonus points if it fits with the Ruinstorm Daemons aesthetic so it can be used as lesser daemons in Heresy, too. CSM: Do Chaos relic terminators (maybe as an upgrade pack that adds spikes and tusks to Cataphractii and Tartaros terminators) count? If yes, then those, if not then some kind of Chaos apothecary (the Death Guard can't be the only ones who still make use of them). Death Guard: Is it cheating to ask for Warpsmiths? Maybe a special Death Guard version that fits with their aesthetic? Thousand Sons: A Rubric Dreadnought (like the old metal one but with the "all is dust" rule so we don't have to rely on only Helbrutes. World Eaters (I don't play them, but this needs to be said): generic foot lords. Every other Chaos faction has them...

The Thousand sons have that BEAUTIFUL dreadnought from the Heresy years, that would work so brilliantly in modern TSons colours, but when asked the FW designers said ‘sadly, the technology for many things has been lost, and the technology for psychic dreadnoughts is one of them’ In the legion all about unrestricted knowledge. Who can literally ask the Chaotic deity of knowledge, complexity and scheming. The legion whose Primarch is ALIVE AND ACTIVE AMONG THEM, WHO *DESIGNED THE PSYCHIC DREADNOUGHTS PERSONALLY* 😅 What a waste of such a cool model… it doesn’t even need to be good (and probably shouldn’t be, to not give Forge World model painfully good rules) but they are literally coming up with an excuse that falls apart the second you think about it, just to… prevent them from selling more of those to 40k players…? Good grief, I’m glad 40k and the Heresy are moving closer to the community’s care and stewardship nowadays… it’s a shame what’s become of the company in some ways, even if there’s obviously some good-meaning people in there

Fan unit: Grot Rokkit Riydas’ - Grot Rokkit Riydas’ are Gretchin that, through folly or malicious madness, have chosen to nick the Rokkit packs from Stormboyz and mount themselves atop the Rokkits using primitive saddles or “Sit-belts”. Flying pell mell at the nearest enemy (or, often enough, “ally”), these tiny streaks of flame cackle insanely as they fly across the battlefield, firing their Grot blastas and trying to stab anything and everything their tiny stabbas and makeshift stikkas can reach. Ability - Yeeehaaaw!! - When a Grot Rokkit Riyda unit successfully charges an enemy, roll a D6. On a 4+, a Grot Rokkit Riyda model explodes, dealing D3 mortal wounds to any enemy within 3 inches of one of the models of the Grot Rokkit Riydas unit, and that Grot Tomkit Riyda model is destroyed.

Different take on thousand sons: I'd like a squad of five on disc's that can be built like either a purgation squad or a fast melee unit like inceptors for grey knights. The sorceror is so dedicated to his pact with the discs and bond with his rubrics that at max squad 4 rubrics he can manage the task of juggling it all and effective combat casts. I think this unit would fulfill most of the holes in tsons in one go.

Chaos-wise.... In the 90's there were some Epic scale Slaanesh Chaos Knight models (3 different types) and some Slaaneshi Light Titans.... they.. were a little odd, had high-heels and zoomed about as fast as Eldar Jetbikes. there was also a Nurgle transport, which was a Great Unclean One possessed siege tower. For quite a long while Chaos armies didn't get Jump infantry or (mechanical) skimmers. The rulebooks put it down to them being able to repair that tech 'on the road'. AdMech used to have "Tech Guard", who sat somewhere closer to Imperial Guard than Skitari. They didn't get too many releases... being a late Epic thing... but did get an assault company in customised Chimera variants - and a special Infantry company that got to ride about in an Imperator Titan.

For guard i think what would be really cool would be a support vehicle. Basically just make a plastic trojan, but give it three new build options. Trojan Ammunition Carrier - got a loading crane on the back and can give a buff to the number of shots done by a vehicle next to it. Trojan Engineering Vehicle - Got a big dozer blade and a large servo arm, can create light cover and repair vehicles. Trojan Communications Vehicle - Can route any vox signal that is within its larger vox range, can transport ten guys as opposed to the 5 of the other variants, and can be used as a command vehicle. And it doesnt break the rules since the trojan just went out of stock.

It's not exactly melee grim reapers, but the striking scorpions do kinda do what Erik wants, in that they're a little out there thematically and also are melee focused troops. Just that they're predators and not grim reapers. But ya, craftworld has the issue (?) of just having every role kinda covered already. And it's literally written in their lore- they pursue and perfect ever form of combat. I just wish some of these options were updated... Anyways, for unit types I think the eldar could use in the current line up, there are two missing at the moment imo. One of them is a massive attack/transport flyer, but this one's kinda breaking rule 1. Because in lore and at some point in the past, the vampire hunter/raider existed which is a really cool flying model. The raider was a transport, kinda the equivalent of a thunderhawk. The hunter was a ground attack aircraft designed to blast titans to smithereens, like a ax1 tigershark but WAY BIGGER. Like, these would definitely be lord of war options. It's just that neither of these have a model or a datasheet in the current edition I think. The other option I really would like is a generic hq option that's right between an autarch and a farseer. Like a souped up warlock. Make it a highwarlock or something. I know it's honestly kinda redundant from a gameplay perspective but I just think it'd be really cool. Also if I'm allowed to break rule 2 for just this- in lore it turns out shards of the other gods besides khaine are also kinda just... Floating about here and there, out of the grasp of Slaanesh. Eldrad had one of morag hei with him, apparently. So seeing avatars of the other gods, or people possessed by the avatars of the other gods would be pretty cool. Like, kurnous could be a less tanky but much quicker avatar than khaine with very powerful ranged attacks instead of melee. Or best of all, an avatar of asuruyan with such massively powerful psychic abilities that it would make Magnus look like a bitch and humble him down for once (please don't hurt me Brad).

I don't know... I think adding even more mechs to Tau really only enforces the same playstyle, adds more unnecessary options (where none is really neeeded) and doesn't really solve the issue of their one-dimensional playstyle. Making things bigger and grander also feels kinda impractical and ressource demanding, which the Tau really are not. And while cool, melee focussed mechas would not make a lot of sense lore wise. It kinda seems to go against their whole doctrine of designing warfare, which keeps their losses to a minimum, by maintaning distance to their enemies. Perhaps something along the line of an elite melee focussed cadre, which serves under Farsight or perhaps shock field drones, but not more than that. I'd rather see GW expand more on the Tau's pool of auxilliaries. Next to giant Mechas, this is what got me into Tau in the first place. That they did not merely subjugate other races but tried to integrate them into their army, allowing them to shore up their weaknesses in ways, which other factions could not. Kroots have War spheres, so why not some sort of ramshackle vehicle option, ala Mad Max, which fuses their own stuff with jury-rigged Tau Tech? Wbu a melee Vespid unit, inspired by hornets (they are bee/fly like after all)? It is even said, that the Tau have this one client species, the Nicassar, which are all psychically gifted. I think those are much more interesting avenues, which GW could explore

GSC: Lego-style Unit that’s basically a bunch of random parts, costs 10 points for the body +5 points per appendage, and 1 wound for every 20 points, with each appendage granting either a melee attack, a ranged attack, or a defense (of some sort). The parts have to be such that it can be assembled many different ways even for the same base parts, so each unit will look different - basically a mandatory kit-bashed unit. GW could even be lazy and basically just ship a bunch of random sprues from different factions - they could even have one base unit sprue and then randomly add 2 sprues of whatever they have excess stock of, so that every gets different parts. Make the rules support kit-bashing well, so any equipped gun gets to shoot regardless of what faction it came from, and then balance around normalizing the damage.
