Google wasn’t helpful (or me not smart enough 🙃) there's a site you can 'paint' models in the color scheme you want, I don't remember the name though..

Erdemo86 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) Do you think we will see any informations about new stormcasts before the countdown ends? They leaked the models and normally some days after you get some warhammer community articles about it.. but this time nothing, maybe because they focus on sbg now.

I like your optimism but stay realistic. new armors, made from grungir himself, same save as old ones? No way I have a dejavu, same discussion as sacrosant released, and there they didn’t touched the old warscrolls too. GW wants us to buy new units and it’s buisnesswise the best for them. All stormcast armor is was made and designed by Grungni, no mater what it looks like. It's all sigmerite.

Malchior Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 How likely is it that the lore will get more positive for the Stormcast Eternals? I do love them but they seem to get their teeth kicked in all the time. I'd hate to see them become a punching bag for other factions.

Bad for stormcast, since they are losing what made them unique, their immortality(mostly it seems), undermining the very concept of Stormcast Eternals. But for the setting overall, things seem to be getting a little more positive, Sigmar has declared the Dawnbringer crusade and Alarielle is bringing about the rise of life in the mortal realms.

I'm tired of a game where every army double taps shooting or fights first and fights twice or teleport charges or nukes you with +5 magic out of unbinding range. Aos 3 needs some serious power slump to counter the hideous power creep from 2nd edition 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idoneth first battletome is basically slaaneah with one broken unit. You really want that kind of battletomes? seraphon battletome is probably one of the best designed tomes, their big lizzard or sauris factions are amazing and not OP. It is just the kroak and salamanders and one buff too many on skinks that make that one build obnoxious but other than that it is an amazingly well designed battle tome hindered by 2 warscrolls. (Which shouldnt be taken int consideration anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I find slaaanesh a bad book beyond its power level, but I quite like the soulblight one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doenst seem that dramatisch for me. But then again i do like the slaves to darkness book also. And that book gets a lot of hate online aswell. For our book i just want to have decent synergie ( im at that low expectation level right now). If they remove battalions im hoping for more interesting stormhosts. And hopefully a bit of a differant stormkeep rules. Because that idea is awsome but would need some love. Not being able to move libbies is hurtfull. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, synergies are what makes creating lists interesting. Making choices, knowing that you can't have it all...etc. Stormkeep are great yes, not only from a gameplay point of view (another way to play the army, plz more!) but from a lore perspective as well. I mean stormcasts are supposed to be the tip of the spear from the free people of the realms, defending humans, elves and duardin. I hope they do not quit on this synergy with citites of sigmar (which would most likely disapear one day for new models and rules). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see proper Light in the Darkness vibes from both Stormcast and at least COS. Edited May 18, 2021 by CommissarRotke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lior'Lec Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Hey all, had a question that’s a mix of lore and logic theorycraft. You have three Lord Celestants: classic on foot, on dracoth, and Gavriel (let’s assume he’s a generic Lord Celestant with alternate load out rather than named). They each lead a strike chamber of some generic, unnamed storm host but what type of strike chamber do you see them leading? An alternative way of looking at the same question would be which of the available LC types do you see as the iconic or standard leader of each of the three strike chambers? I’m not concerned about gameplay/meta in this question but more about which seems like a more logical/natural fit for each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lengthster Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I did a quick recolour of a Vindictor to see if how they would look in my army's scheme. I figured you guys would appreciate it. I've mostly painted Sacrosanct so these guys look much easier to paint. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommissarRotke Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 really excited for the lack of cloth on the Vindictors tbqh, I know I'll have a blast painting them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
