Tried really hard to make age of sigmar fun in our group, failed and switched to mantic.
The humans port into kings of war easy enough, but what to do with all the Stormcast?

The Prosecutors are ringers for Elohi, but that leaves me with bows, crossbows, hammer and shield guys, great axe guys, maul guys and long spear guys; plus a smattering of characters.
All the guys are significantly bigger than humans, and a shade smaller than ogres.

From the fluff, an army of Celestials who survived the breaking of The Fenulian Mirror is a ringer for the stormcast, the Elohi could be their greatest warriors, with all the guys on foot being the lesser warriors.
Does Mantic have any plans for a list for these guys, or should I start to put one together?
From a model perspective, size 2 and 40mm basing is the closest fit.

Right now running them as ogres with allied Elohi, and it works, it just bothers me that they aren't all good, and aren't all in the same force.

I just built the Prosecutors as Elohi, and the leader is a Paladin on Gryphon Hero/Mon.

The rest became Ogre Siegebreakers, and Beserkers for me. The scale is actually spot on, and they actually fit 40mm bases. Plus Siege Breakers having heavy shields makes them look the part.

I wouldn't worry about that, a lot of people disregard the mantic fluff and insert their own. So army alignments etc, not really too important

I'll start paying attention to the fluff as soon as it stops being so damn black/white. Prefer WFB "chaos" a million-fold over mantic's "evil" abyssals

Yeah, use them as an army of SigMarines using a mix of the Ogre and Elohi rules. Depending on how much of a stickler for the letter of the rules your opponent is will determine if you can use them as one army with one set of break tests/inspiring, or if you have to run them as allies to one another.
