I'm going to guess previews for Epic and Battlefleet Gothic, with Gothic being the most likely. Just a straight out of left field guess.
With both they can just say it's Heresy era which me as you get just a couple of factions. So Heresy era Epic would be Marines and maybe Mechanicum which would then be painted as loyalists or traitors. I'd like an army in a box type deal with comes with a few sticks of infantry and a couple vehicles. For Gothic, just release three fleets (Navy, Marines, Mechanicum) and again leave it up to players to declare them as loyalists or traitors.
It's the Adeptus Titanicus approach, essentially. Gothic is already rumored to take place in the Horus Heresy. I'd much rather it take place in the current era because that means Tau and Necrons could get expanded fleets since Tau were nearly all Forgeworld and Necrons didn't have many ships. But if the rules are mostly the same then I'll take it anyway. Although I wonder how such a preview might step on the toes of the incoming Aeronautica release.
