They look like they are the World Eaters. This makes me wonder, are the forces of Chaos going to be all World Eaters legion (then what of sorcerers?), or from different factions, as in one of Abbadon's Black Crusades?

I'm hoping they will go the smart route and make the forces of Chaos a Black Crusade splinter, though that being said, they could have allowed any loyalist Marine factions instead of pigeonholing everyone into Black Templars.

Look in the "Imperium of Man" trailer. There is a space marine fighting a Chaos marine at the end. It clearly shows the logo of the World Eaters

I read somewhere that the recycled footage from DoW was the scene of the battleships translating into warp space. I will look and see if I can find that link.

Yeah, it was the ships jumping. I remember watching the trailer and thinking 'I've seen that before somewhere.'

The ships jumping scene is from Dawn of War, it plays when you travel between worlds.

Sorry for the big size

Yes, the World Eaters are the only Chaos chapter seen so far, and even depicted on the DMO official site. I'm betting they will be playable, though they may end up as an npc adversary.

I agree, I would much rather it be some form of black crusade and let the chapters devoted to specific gods comprise the classes as it were. World Eater, for example, could be the final class specialization for assualt marines.

Another idea I've been kicking around for including as many iconic chapters as possible is to offer World Eaters, Space Wolves, etc. up in some form of instanced pvp (scenario/battleground) as a form of monster play/legends mechanic. They could easily write parts in the ongoing campaign to justify these types of instanced play. Actually, how cool would it be to have a Space Wolves vs. World Eaters deathmatch scenario, lol?
