Has anyone else seen this?

Looks amazing, imo.  I'm super excited about the flamer weapon.  Not sure about the other weapon though.  Speculations?

XV9 Riptide, essentially :P

I'm more captured by the look of the Triaros Armoured Conveyor. Its basically a train sandwiched between some Land Raider tracks :P Still, it strangely looks cool XD

I see you Archmagos Draykavak. Then there's Polyphemus titan! UGH! I'm glad my warband is so tied in with the Dark Mechanicus. Perfect excuse to get more Mechanicum!

I have to say these all look awesome, more Knights are always welcome and the Triaros looks like fun.

In regards to the Y'varha, I agree with Narric, it looks like a huge XV9. Which makes me think that the ion-ish type other gun is a super Phased Ion Gun (it appears to have two barrels, maybe...). Which would be awesome cause I love XV9s with double PIGs ;D.
Taking the theme of Tau and Dark Eldar allies, and having fun with it.

If it is Ion then its gonna have to be very different from the Riptide otherwise what's the point?

To sell more models of course ;)

Well, assuming the flame weapon uses a template; I could see the other weapon being a rapid fire weapon to supplement it...

Preorders and experimental rules are up!

It's a beast!  The IDC and PPF weapons are just mean, it's movement options are brilliant; but beware of its fewer wounds and short range...

WOOT! A much simpler way of tackling Knight-class units. POtentially 12 HPs a turn O.o

It also has BS4 standard, which is nice to see at last.
