An easy and convenient way to enjoy all four part to this saga as the Hallowed Knights seek revenge on the creature who caused the death - the permanent death - of their Lord-Celestant. Tarsim

There is the sub and here is the single version

THE STORY
After being reforged, Lord-Relictor Ramus of the Hallowed Knights is sent by Sigmar to capture the betrayer, Mannfred von Carstein. The quest brings Ramus to the Carthic Oldwoods of Ghur where he comes to the aid of the Astral Templars against a massive ogor horde. Victorious, but at great cost, Ramus discovers Mannfred is finally close at hand. Only with the help of the Astral Templars will the Lord-Relictor catch his quarry, but there are deadlier things in the woods than ogors, a fact the Stormcast Eternals soon discover.

Well can't wait to listen to it I will give my thoughts on it later.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Riight my thoughts after the first listen you get a few lines from sigmar that he wants mannfred delivered to him in sliver chains. We see that nagash's curse on vampires is still in effect and we are starting to see mortal auxiliaries and the building of settlements it makes sense considering the warbeast novel its quite a throw away line but something I took keen interest in.

Warbeast spoiler

Spoiler:
That each stormcast made and each reforging actually diminishes sigmar


Now our first introduction to the Astral Templars they were put in charge of the colonies by sigmar and well... Astral Templars = space wolves pretty much and they hold memories sacred and tell stories of each brother when they die because they don't want to forget anything. Plus I think they are using this audio drama to introduce the orcs aka orruks.

Considering Mannfred was afraid of something, Mannfred noted to Ramus that they should concern themselves with that unknown threat than him of course Ramus did not care what he had to say considering the events of the previous Volume.

Spoiler:
Ramus the lord Relicator saw an Orruk and wondered if that was what mannfred was afraid of and dismissed it considering to a vampire and stormcast orruks should not be that big of a deal until the Astral templar said on his armor was painted "The great red" Now does this mean grimgor ironhide? I dunno gotta wait and see perhaps someone more well versed in fantasy might know the reference.


I feel it was a pretty good continuation from the previous volume of the audio drama. Oh and Ogres are OP.

Yay! Human auxiliaries! I've been waiting for them to start getting into the fluff.

As for the spoilers:
Spoiler:

I believe it was already mentioned earlier when his Stormcast were questing for his warhammer. I thought the return of his hammer fixed the problem but apparently not.

Maybe it just lessened his burdens?


Spoiler:

Not certain what red could mean. The reincarnation of Grimgor is possible but the Great Red could be referencing the Great Green as well.

It might be a daemonic possession or chaos worshipping Orruks. Certainly interesting...


Also, Ogors are always OP. In fluff, 8th, 9th, AoS...seeing an army of them is always a bad sign.

Yeah another good part was Mannfred making fun of how sigmar names his stormcasts. XD

On sigmar power

Spoiler:
Perhaps maybe its just a throw away line but I recall sigmar is not actually using his hammer but handing it out to the various celestant primes to use.

Hahaha! There's certainly something to poke fun of there.

Edit:
Spoiler:

He does. Which is unfortunate because the build up on that plotline made me think we were getting a Sigmar model.:(
