The game is a couple of years out, so the press embargo is extremely tight. I am not going to walk away with information about classes, combat mechanics, vehicles, or the number of worlds in the game. This is made very clear to me from the outset. (We have a lot to talk about with this game,) Tim Campbell says. (We want to make sure we can let the conversation unfold. We have to be very guided and smart about it.)
One of the big questions I've seen everyone ask online is whether or not we're going to have to play as a member of the Imperium in one form or another. Are we all going to have to be Imperial Guardsmen, Space Marines, or Inquisitors? I press gently on this point and Georgina Verdon is willing to break the embargo just a little. No, we are not going to have to play as a human from the beginning. When I ask her which brand of Xenos would be available to us, for instance the Orks or Eldar, she grins and says (We won't be making all the races playable at first. We have to leave something for expansions.) The fact that the press kit has pictures of what looks like an Ork camp might be a hint in this direction.
