You mean something like a Knight Titan, but covered in hammers?

Actually, I was thinking about an awesome clockwork dragon, a bit like this one;



Or we could always use some clockwork half-gryphs. With hammers, of course.

I think the big blurry monster on the pictures we can see in rumors and news for AoS will be fine for the titan thing. Smaller mechanical beasts could easily fit a "light cavalry" role, flanking the enemies with their speed or something.

About flagellants, I can see some humans trying to become martyrs so that they catch Sigmar's eye and become a Stormcast. Thus fighting without any care for their lives for a righteous cause against Chaos. It's not the same than flagellants, since these ones think all is lost and fall into madness - it's more about trying to become a Hero and transcend death.

I would love to see a Wizard type Stormcast. He could still be in the armor, but have robes and whatnot over them and give him a staff.

We are already getting more dracoth-mounted Stormcasts, so that need is taken care of. I would like to see a winged dragon, but sounds like that is coming too.

Lastly, I wouldn't mind seeing a Terminator-type Stormcast. Thick, heavy plated armor.

I'm thinking of making a skirmish force for Song of Blades and Heroes out of Stormcast, just a bit darker. Kind of if Stormcast had a subtle "you may be on the side of Order, but convert or else" undercurrent to them.

I thought the Lord Relictor would make a good mage, with the standard from his hand up replaced with something more like a staff top, and a bare Space Marine head to give him more humanity.

I think something official along those lines would be great.
