The Stormcast Eternals are going to be getting some new additions to their army to help in their efforts at fighting off Chaos!
This February, the Vanguard Chambers are unleashed.
These swift and deadly warriors are a new type of Stormcast Eternal – rangers, trackers and cavalrymen without compare. They are swift vengeance to the forces of Chaos, and the outriders and scouts of Sigmar’s armies.
The sleeker armour of these hunters allows for more dynamic miniatures compared to the heavy-hitters found in many Stormcast Eternal battlelines. They also have a much more feral appearance, draped in furs and pelts, and feeling much more like an army that is at home in the wide realms, rather than a fresh new arrival from Azyr (as the Stormcasts were when we were first introduced to them).
The Stormcast Hunters are bringing back the original feral feel that we were originally introduced to in the beginning. They’re going with a sleeker appearance, and you may notice those weapons from our previous Rumor Engine post.
This looks like it will be a fast moving and shooting unit, something the Stormcast Eternals have been in need of.
They bring with them loyal beasts of the Celestial Realm, some familiar, like the Gryph-hound, and some we have never seen before, like the Aetherwing and the formidable Gryph-chargers (more on those very soon).
The Gryph-Hound is also a new stand alone unit we haven’t seen yet, and from the sound of it we can expect to see more in the near future. Tzeentch isn’t the only army getting an upgrade of beaks and feathers now.
Does this mean the wrath of Chaos will be coming to an end? Will Stormcast finally prevail? Either way at least we know we have a new wave of minis coming our way to level out the playing field.
