No, it's not true that if your brain touches your skull you pass out. The brain is encased in the skull and surrounded by cerebrospinal fluid, which helps cushion it. However, significant trauma or injury to the brain, such as a concussion or other forms of impact, can lead to loss of consciousness. This is due to the brain's response to injury rather than direct contact with the skull.

Gamesworkshop hasn't publicly announced it to my knowledge, but that doesn't mean it won't happen.
Skull can provide an amazing amount of evidence of the anatomical changes that have occurred in hominids over time. Observations of the size of the skull can give us clues on how much the brain has evolved.

The skull doesn't function, but it holds the brain. When the brain is dead so is the person. The brain is like the central computer for the body and regulates all functions. True story: Some guy got hit in the head with a brick; they saved his life, but left him without a skull under the injury. The skin would indent showing the place of the hole. Anyway, a neuro-psychologist made him a hat (a hole filler) that also provided protection from external hits. It had false hair and, when in place, didn't look too bad. The neuro-psychologist was Dr. Sidney Weinstein.
he was never found, so no
