Lumineth new releases are on the way next week for AoS, alongside Broken Realms Teclis, as GW just confirmed next week’s pre-orders!
Warhammer Community just let us in on all the new releases coming our way next week!
Broken Realms Teclis
Broken Realms: Teclis will be available to pre-order from next weekend as an epub, hardback, or as one of 700 copies of a deluxe limited edition.
Within its pages are six battleplans, as well as a host of datasheets for the new Hurakan units for the Lumineth Realm-lords, warscroll battalions from a number of the warring factions, allegiance abilities, and more. In fact, if you already have the current edition of Battletome: Lumineth Realm-lords, Broken Realms: Teclis includes everything you need to bring their rules right up to date and in-line with the new battletome.
If you’d like to see more on what’s inside this book, we covered it a little more when it was previewed, alongside some of the coming models, previously here.
Invidian Plaguehost
Besides having unique rules inside Broken Realms Teclis, this Warband features a good assortment of Plaguebearers and characters if you wanted to bolster a Nurgle daemon army.
Xintil War-magi
This Warband features some older models, but with unique rules in the book, it may be worth giving them a second shot.
Mortevell’s Helcourt
Just like the Nurgle Daemons, there are unique rules inside Broken Realms Teclis that this Warband can use. However, it still features a good assortment of Flesheaters and characters if you wanted to bolster an army.
Horrek’s Dreadlance
This Warband is a little more elite than the Flesheaters or Nurgle Daemons, but they still feature some great models. If you wanted cavalry for an undead list, there’s enough here to fill it up.
Battletome: Lumineth Realm-lords
The new battletome brings you right up to speed with the ongoing narrative of the Lumineth Realm-lords and introduces the Hurakan, the Hyshian aelves who’ve become attuned to the spirits of the wind.
Just a friendly reminder, if you have the original battle tome, Broken Realms Teclis is enough to update you to their current rules. This battle tome just serves as a more convenient entry point for new army collectors/players.
Lyrior Uthralle, Warden of Ymetrica
If you seek a worthy commander for your armies on the battlefield, look no further than this consummate warrior and supernally gifted leader of the Lumineth. Armed with his Daemonbane lance, Lyrior Uthralle will sear through all who oppose you with effortless ease.
Lore wise, he is second to Tyrion and often leads the armies, so he is definitely a worthy Leader choice for any army and will most likely have rules to prove it.
Lord Regent
The kit can alternatively be assembled as a Lord Regent of your own creation – perfect for tooling up with artefacts to suit your army’s preferred fighting style.
If you want a more generic character, and probably cheaper to field, the basic Lord Regent may be a better fit.
Hurakan Windchargers
Riding atop their Treerunner steeds, they sweep into the fray to deliver killing arrows with unerring accuracy. There are no finer mounted archers to be found anywhere in the Mortal Realms.
Ranged options are pretty limited in AoS so don’t expect anything groundbreaking, we may however see some great mobility and utility-based abilities.
Vanari Bannerblade
These storied champions of the Vanari are tasked with holding aloft and defending enchanted Hyshian World Banners, their power so radiant that they can blind the unworthy should they dare to look upon them.
It’s probably fair to assume these guys will have a decent aura or two with them to help inspire the other troops.
Scinari Calligrave
A Calligrave blesses the ground to aid their allies and thwart their foes with rippling waves of magic that emanate from their glowing calligraphy.
These “mages” are probably going to help with bolstering allies in an area or hinder opponents charging into your forces.
Sevireth, Lord of the Seventh Wind
The wrathful manifestation of one of the greatest geomantic spirits of the wind, Sevireth is a terrible foe for any who would seek to corrupt the sacred purity Hysh. Sevireth can traverse the battlefield in the blink of an eye and cut down his victims from afar with Enathrai, his giant magical bow.
As hinted at in the original preview, this character sports impressive movement, and a good bow, it’ll be interesting to see what else the character offers.
Hurakan Spirits of the Wind
This kit can alternatively be assembled as one of the myriad other Hurakan Spirits of the Wind that fight alongside the Lumineth. Like Sevireth, their speed is beyond compare, and they wield a Bow of Wind’s Vengeance with which they can smite their quarry at will.
It’s interesting they use the word smite, perhaps they will have special rules to land wounds or hits with their bows. Expect to see a trade-off of abilities for a cheaper cost when comparing these to Sevireth.
Hurakan Windmage
The wisest of the Hurakan aelves are the Windmages. They’ve become so attuned to the winds of Hysh that they’re more at home sweeping across the skies than on foot, borne aloft by a roiling cloud of aelementor energy.
Other than being on a flying nimbus and looking dope while doing it, these mages do have a certain touch of prowess about them. we will have to wait and see how strong they actually are in-game.
Vanari Starshard Ballistas
This beautifully crafted ballista launches two long spears in perfect unison to skewer the enemies of the Lumineth. What’s more, the enchanted light bound into their tips bursts forth upon impact to dazzle anyone who was lucky enough to avoid being instantly turned into a kebab.
These ballistae are going to pack a serious punch. The GW quote also hints at some special rules that may potentially further hinder targets even if they survive.
Vanari Bladelords
These deadly swordmasters may be few, but they can cut their way through many times their own number. Vanari Bladelords adapt their fighting style to deliver flawless, executing blows or a whirlwind of rapid strikes in the blink of an eye.
These elite guards have hints of versatility, hopefully meaning they will have great combat stats but also maybe even an invulnerable save to help body-block for other characters.
Scinari Loreseeker
Unlike the more vulnerable mages of the Lumineth, a Loremaster needs no protection – they’re more than capable of defending themselves and even fight more effectively as independent operatives. As skilled fighters and spellcasters, Scinari Loremasters are valuable assets to any Lumienth Realm-lords army.
These are interesting characters, perhaps they have better melee weapons and armor but trade that off for a little bit weaker spell casting compared to other mages.
Ellania and Ellathor, Eclipsian Warsages
The twins are a devastating presence on the battlefield, able to lay low enemies beyond count with blade and magical barrage. Ellania and Ellathor can join any army from the forces of Order and make for a great addition to a number of factions.
It’s interesting to see another named addition to the lineup, except this one, which can be taken with other Order armies as well. It will be cool to see what exactly they offer in support and combat.
Shrine Luminor
By garrisoning a Lumineth Hero from your army atop a Shrine Luminor, they can provide several augmentative abilities to those around them. Not only that, but they’ll look awesome on the tabletop while doing it.
As the terrain piece for the faction, this will buff your mages and help turn them into support powerhouses.
Warscroll Cards Lumineth Realm-lords
As per usual, there will be Warscroll Cards to help organize and simplify the process of learning all the new rules for these models.
With the release of this big Lumineth update, will you pick up any of it? Are you excited about the progression of the Broken Realms books?
