Well said! Although, to be honest, I think we better bring forth the chains and the sirens, because I doubt we are getting more than TS and WE got...

Im sure our power of excruciating sounds is gonna be worth waiting for the perfection. GW may have became lazy over the years but they arnt dumb. Let's all just hope.

Wish I was that optimistic XD. Like, what really worries me is how they are going to portray the faction in the minis. About the amount of units itself, I already guess it will be kinda barebones, unless we somehow get the DG treatment.
 
Even if we don't get a whole lot of new models there's still the possibility of is keeping things like raptors and maybe bikes, as it only makes sense. Assuming Gw has common sense

If kept raptors and the other stuff, that would be a dream! But given the past trend of legion releases, I'm afraid that we will be lucky if we get 5-6 unique units plus a bunch of other usuable stuff. I recommend to read this analysis, it's really good and deep: https://shewhothirsts.com/emperors-children-codex-units/ (What units will be in the new Emperor's Children Codex?)
 
I'll be curious to see if they rework integrating csm and daemons with the god legions in 11th edition. In the end I'll likely just be taking whatever kits we get for mid-late Heresy conversions, if Hereticus was any good they'd be ideal for it but regular EC rules with 3rd company elite will do fine for new noise marines or Maru Skara for a Doomrider biker list.

Adding deamons to Legion armies would be kinda going back to that sweet CSM codex 3.5 (best ever imo). If that's the case, I shall praise Slaanesh with voice that will eclipse all others.
 
By biggest let down with the new CSM Codex was that there's no "better integrates daemons" detachment. (If I had been writing things, I'd have kept Slaves to Darkness as "the Black Legion one", and made a "daemons + possessed" one for the Word Bearers.)

But hopefully all of the Cult Legions get such a detachment - I think they might, too, as it's low-hanging fruit to help bulk out the numbers.
