There are still a ton of AoS 3.0 Stormcast & Orruk Warclans releases still on the way, check out all the minis you can grab soon!
With the releases recently delayed until September, we expect the majority of these to come out at the same time. There are 17 kits overall (that we know of), so plenty to look forward to, let’s get into the minis!
All the AoS 3.0 Stormcast & Orruk Warclans Releases
As we said, these are delayed as they were supposed to come out this month. Still, September isn’t too far away, so hopefully, we see these hit shelves soon.
New Kruleboyz Still On The Way
Beast-skewer Killbow
Another, “more range than normal” Orruk is going to come via this giant ballista sometime after the full box release.
Breaka-boss on Mirebrute Troggoth
Two bosses weren’t enough, so we will actually be getting a 3rd later who is riding atop a Troggoth! Maybe they will have synergies with the other Troggoth models too?
5 More New Kruleboyz Coming After Dominion
Swampboss Skumdrekk
First up is Swampboss Skumdrekk. He’s a legend among the Kruleboyz not only for his abilities as a mighty warrior but also for the fact that he’s been known to gamble on the outcome of battles.
This is a new monster/mount model which is always exciting, but the fact that a box is on top means he will also probably be a decent support and combat piece.
We’re not sure about you, but if we saw Skumdrekk and his terrifying Sludgeraker Beast, we know who we’d bet on.
Snatchaboss on Sludgeraker Beast
The kit alternately makes a Snatchaboss on Sludgeraker Beast if you want to give Skumdrekk a friend to ride into battle with.
While this is technically the same model, it is a new character in the form of a generic one, hopefully meaning he’ll be a little cheaper but still have much of the essence of what the model wants to accomplish.
Marshcrawla Sloggoth
That’s not the only giant beastie joining the ranks of the Orruk Warclans – there’s also the Marshcrawla Sloggoth for when your grots need to arrive in style.
If you’re facing one of these creatures, try to avoid getting grabbed by the grots’ long, sharp snatcha gear and watch out for the Sloggoth’s bothersome regenerative powers.
From the sounds of the GW description, it sounds like this will be a tanky unit that can potentially punish units and heal. Depending on how it works in-game, this could be a serious pain for your opponents!
Gutrippaz
Forming the core of the Kruleboyz battlelines, the Gutrippaz have a new weapon option to go with their vicious stikkas.
These sadistic greenskins are well known to be spiteful and kunnin’, and they can overwhelm unsuspecting enemies through sheer weight of numbers
As the first of two Kruleboyz Dominion kits to be confirmed for separate box releases, these will get extra poses, bringing way more diversity in your army than wouldn’t be possible if you just spammed the Dominion box versions.
Man-skewer Boltboyz
Alongside them are the Man-skewer Boltboyz with a new Boltboy Boss option.
As the second Kruleboyz Dominion kits to be confirmed for separate box releases, these will get extra poses, bringing way more diversity in your army than wouldn’t be possible if you just spammed the Dominion box versions. Not to mention a new unique model for the sergeant to help him stand out even more.
Kruleboyz Gobsprakk, the Mouth of Mork
On the battlefield, Killabeak tears through enemy ranks with beak and claw,* while the Mouth of Mork wreaks arcane destruction. So great is Gobsprakk’s magical might that the crotchety shaman has bested many sorcerers in the past, including a great Lord of Change. Look closely, and you can see the daemon’s hand atop Gobsprakk’s staff – it’s bound to the material plane by the shaman’s iron-willed desire to show it off.
If he can beat a Lord of Change, we expect his arcane prowess to be insane! Plus the mini is just pretty awesome all around that looks like it will be quite giant and tower over the tabletop.
Thanks to his experience hunting down powerful wizards for his trophy rack (he’s certainly giving Yndrasta some competition for the grisliest collection). Gobsprakk has developed a particular knack for countering the enemy’s magics.
When you get close to the details, this is really cool. While some people don’t like the new aesthetic, this one is pretty cool.
Rules
The shaman likes to summon swarms of minuscule tapewyrm squigs in the guts of his opponents. Disrupting their spellcasting and sometimes even causing them to explode in an eruption of Waaagh! energy.
This is really dangerous for enemy spellcasters! If you cast a spell when he’s on the table, be careful or you might explode.
Alternate Version of the Kit
For those whose ears are not open to the whisperings of the Mouth of Mork, this incredible new kit also makes a Killaboss on Corpse-rippa Vulcha – the perfect combination of strength and cunning to lead your boyz into battle.
It’s always cool to get two versions from one kit. So if you don’t want the named character, you can just make a character on top of the mount instead.
9 Stormcast New Releases Still on the Way
Here are the latest reveals from Warhammer TV and Warhammer Community that are still yet unreleased for Stormcast.
Knight-Judicator with Gryph-hounds
These masterful archers of the Stormcast Eternals rain arrows on the battlefield. They can also direct the gaze of Sigmar himself to unleash his wrath.
The Stormcast have decent ranged options already, so it will be interesting to see what this archer-hound combo can bring to army lists.
Stormstrike Chariot
Wreathed in celestial energy that blinds the foe, the Stormcast Eternals of the Angelos conclave employ swift Gryph-charger chariots as potent line breakers.
The chariot not only looks dope but actually hinted at potential bonuses to charge and maybe even debuffing enemies! We will just have to wait and see.
5 More New Stormcast Revealed
Lord-Commander Bastian Carthalos
Think that hammer looks impressive? Well, he can also call down thunderbolts from Azyr to obliterate his enemies.
GW’s hint at this model’s mechanics is interesting at the very least. Could it be a ranged attack? or perhaps a special ability or spell? We will just have to wait and see.
On top of some interesting potential rules, the model looks fantastic with plenty of room for hobbyists to flex some creative hobby muscles.
Knights-Relictor
Knights-Relictor provide support with prayers to the God-King Sigmar, and they’re handy with a maul on the front line.
There isn’t much to go off for the Knights-Relictor, but another support piece is always welcome, especially with such an expansive roster that they have.
Vanquishers
Vanquishers are clad in thunderstrike armour and are armed with devastating celestial greatswords that hit exceptionally hard.
These are kinda reminiscent of a Stormcast version of the old-school empire greatswords, which were dope AF, so that makes these pretty fresh as well!
They are a full squad too, meaning there is a full range of poses and a flag bearer/hornblower for more diversity. These will most likely hit harder than other basic options but might end up being a little easier to kill since they forgo a shield.
Vigilors
Judicators and Vanguard-Raptors are already excellent ranged specialists, but Sigmar heard the prayers of generals who want even more top-quality archers in their ranks and forged ranks of Vigilors to bolster the backline.
Stormcast does already have decent options considering range in AoS, but these might be unique in the sense that they have some decent melee as depicted in their poses, while other options are much more dedicated to range and no melee.
Annihilators
We’ve already seen some of these incredible warriors in the Dominion boxed set, but this new kit features more options, including the two-handed meteoric grandhammers.
Not to mention, these new separate boxes will have different poses and appearance options, making it a much less restrictive and exciting kit to build and play in-game!
New Stormcast Dragons Coming to AoS 3.0 Soon!
The Draconith Empires were all but destroyed, but with Sigmar’s resurgence two princes of that once magnificent civilisation see a chance to return their order to greatness. The Princes’ affinity with Sigmar and the cause of the Stormcast Eternals makes their arrival a great boost for the forces of Order, who are still reeling from the effects of Be’lakor’s shroud of dark magic and the emergence of Kragnos. The Draconith are about to put the Grand Alliances of Death, Destruction, and Chaos on notice.
Kragnos thought he had killed them by stomping out all of their eggs, but he couldn’t keep the Draconith down forever! The new kit looks like it will be able to be built into two different versions, Karazai and Krondys.
Krondys, Son of Dracothion
An integral member of Sigmar’s inner circle, Krondys is majestic, wise, and immensely powerful. Already among the most magically potent beings in the Mortal Realms, Krondys also bears the Regalia Fulmentaris around his neck – a piece of armour that magnifies his substantial magical abilities.
So, not only is this giant and will probably do all kinds of melee damage, but it is also a spell caster, so should be quite the powerful character. The only thing will be points cost, if it’s just insanely high like Kragnos, not sure how many armies will find room for it. The model itself is pretty cool with plenty of detail and will really stand out on the tabletop.
Karazai the Scarred
Finding himself without an invite to Sigmar’s party, Karazai has been scouring Ghur, seeking vengeance for his scrambled kin and wreaking havoc on the forces of Destruction. When a dragon spends too long in the Realm of Beasts, though, a little of that realm may also find its way into the dragon, and thus it is that Karazai has become a bitter and violent creature – all but consumed with wrath and revenge. But doesn’t he strike a pose?
Since this one is not specifically for Sigmar, there may be a chance it can be used by other armies as well, which would be super fun. Plus, we assume it will be quite the monster in melee and maybe gets stronger when it gets too low enough wounds. Just a guess but could be fun and flavorful.
More Age of Sigmar Stormcast Dragons Incoming
Get a load of this guy. With his flaming sword* and fancy helmet with built-in moustachios, the Knight-Draconis is exactly as much of a beast on the battlefield as you’d expect from such a mighty champion of Sigmar.
The dragon does definitely have a different look than the old aesthetic, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Either way, it looks like Stormcast is not done getting new units quite yet.
It’s hard to decide which is the best detail. The Dragonith’s special hat is a strong contender – this is a kit with much more than its fair share of fancy headgear – but the tilting plate on his breast is very cool too, not least because it implies the Stormdrake Guard enjoy a spot of dragon jousting… And we repeat, if you take him as your general, you can run an entire army of dragons.
How cool would it be to have an entire dragon army? Might not be super competitive, but who cares, you have an army of dragons!
Stormdrake Guard
Stormdrake Guard are Stormcast Eternals who have forged a symbiotic relationship with their Draconith mounts. Clad in thunderstrike armour and adorned with a rare Draconith beastmark, these warriors can be armed either with a drakerider’s lance or drakerider’s warblade.
It looks like they will be releasing this in a kit where you can build either option, much like the previous dragons as well. Overall both variations look cool and it would just be fun to see a full dragon army on the table.
