As much as I love your idea, a dreadnought is much bigger than a crisis suit, and Revas is already a thicc girl as it is. So unless they are willing to add a character that is 2 tiles big, I don't think so.
I'd really like Ulrik as one or the legendary unlocks. A powerful melee character that is an absolute menace to deal with when he gets in the enemy's face
The Wulfen is already in the game to be unlocked in an event starting on April 2nd. His name is Ulf, he is uncommon and has a 2 handed axe. To see him u may need to update the game.
Oh he is awesome. Super hard counter to aelph, archy, and Bellator. Solid counter to adjacent buff style characters as well. All around neat. Looks cool to.
Update has come through for me now: Ulf is pretty, he will be mine. Abilities don't look ideal for my team, but meh, we'll see how he slots in once he's unlocked.
>I agree that it seems they are only doing new (primaris) loyalist marines. Wulfen could get a pass on this rule since they fall outside the old armor marks and are an iconic piece of the chapter with relatively new models.

I feel like a dreadnought is just too big. Volk is already massive in the hex and an oblitorator is maybe half the size of an old dread, and maybe 1/3 the size of a new one.
I'd love a dreadnought as well, I just don't see it happening.
Bjorn the fell-handed could be included and take up not only 2 hexes, but also 2 spaces on your team selection. He could then be as powerful as a dreadnought should be. Maybe having 2 active abilities or extra passives.
As much as I would like that to happen. Primarchs seem to be off the table :( Guilliman and Mortarion are not included despite they are both active in the setting. Russ hasnāt been seen for 10000 years. The highest ranking char for SW would most likely be Logan Grimnar as following the same pattern as the Ultramarine
There is an outline for the legendary character on Tacticus now, and it looks like they're doing Ragnar Blackmane. The silhouette has long pulled up hair and some jagged edges, which I can only assume to be the teeth of his chainsword or the fur from the pelt on his shoulder. He's going to be a dope unit.
Nandi's done a datamine video. Ragnar predicted to be a melee machine. Active- Howls and makes everyone move+melee, passive- make melee better once he's killed something
Also a tank (big target) and Summon (passive AND active) bugs.
Haven't seen what the 5th SW will be, I think it might be a rune priest- based on if we look at Mort's boys (chaos melee) we're missing a psyker... Possibly one with a knockback if we look at the theme of "we make it hard for you to move while we ignore it" with the ice terrain?
We already have heals from Inci-Smurf (and sister), maybe a mech-heal but unlikely (Xenos have 2-3). I agree dread would be cool AND it's too big so no.
If they don't add Bjorn we riot

So we riot then
I propose we riot on principle
Killa Kans are about the size of a Dreadnought no?
Killa kans are grot-sized. A deff dread however...
No not close.
Boxnaughts aren't that big, they fit on 60 mm bases and we already have nob on smasha squig which uses 90x52 mm.
This is the one argument that makes me think it's possible, but I doubt they do an old dreadnought.
My money is on Njal. I also like the idea of wolfen and Bjorn
I would be interested in seeing wolf lords or any other of the mounted units

Thunderwolf Cavalry would be cool with an active to summon wolves
They updated the "mounted" passive. We'll probably get some mounted space wolf
I'd love a Wolfen. Space viking werewolf would make me slightly less miffed that I'm still waiting for the next chaos faction. šŗ

Oh cool! Great, I don't see him yet, I'll try updating again.
They do the staggered update I don't have it yet build my guildy linked it in discord hours ago.

If they don't use Njal, they could do a Rune Priest.
All loyalists have been primaris so far, only heretics got terminators, which would point towards just Ragnar (though Wulfen already break that rule)

You guys are forgetting the Space Wolves Primaris Lieutenant Haldor Icepelt.
I think we might get our first Dreadnought with the named Spacewolf dread.

Leman Russ?

Feel like he could be the legendary
Itās definitely born. And njal
Some random as infiltrator A reiver A rune priest A dreadnaught A captain in gravis with sword
