Felyndael Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 From the moment I first saw the Stormcast Eternals in the flesh, I fell in love with the Hammers of Sigmar. There was just something about those models and that colour scheme that I loved. I guess that they will always be my favourite stormhost for that reason. As I began to dip into the fluff, it seemed like they were often in amongst it in the storyline, and characters like Vandus and Ionus feel well-known to me now. Ionus punching Lord Cyrocco in the face to shut him up remains one of my favourite moments from the entire Realmgate wars saga! I enjoy how the black library range has expanded on the backstory and character of different stormhosts. I quickly became somewhat of a fan of the Hallowed Knights, in particular, after listening to the audio dramas. On the other hand, the Astral Templars for me are just a little too Space Wolfish right now, and I hope that future fluff with expand on them and really give them a unique feel. So, my question is which stormhost do you like or identify with the most? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forgebellows Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 As soon as I read the Astral Templars being referred to as Beast Bane, I was hooked. I like the idea of them clearing out a forest nobody else has ever entered and came back out alive. I don't recall the name of the forest. But after researching some on them, I found that they cleared the Howling Horde from an ancient Duardin road in the Lava Tubes of Aqshy. This was perfect since I already had a small army of Fyreslayers and a lava themed board. Now my Astral Templars are based on lava, like my Duardin, and the purple and orange look great together.

CoreCommander Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Astral Templars for me, aswell. The mix of tribal traditions and likeable chieftain characters (Zephacleas most forward of them) makes for a warrior host that can grow to your heart.
