We'll find out soon enough eh.

Hopefully the art isn't too accurate to the models, or the Barbarian and Warrior Priest look to be the same size as the Marauder-style enemies.

Definitely like the preview art. Stormcast seems really overdressed compared to everyone else though.

Being able to use the rest of the AoS range(within reason) as hero's and adversaries would add a lot to a boxed game. Heck GW could take a leaf out of the FFG Imperial assault play book and pop out new hero's(that could also be used for AoS ofc) further down the line. Either way I have to go squeee for a bit



You mean take a leaf out of mid-1990's Games Workshop playbook...when they popped out these hero packs and expansions for the original Warhammer Quest...





No blue horrors in the art....

Here's hoping the quality of the miniatures matches the Deathwatch Cult release.

I'd also expect more than four heroes in the box. An AoS elf of any hue would be cool.

Fingers crossed for a couple of things:
- Randomly generated dungeons
- Ability to play solo or full party with dungeon master

And of course great miniatures and excellent production value!

I wonder if we'll see a repackaged Gaunt Summoner in there? Or maybe a new one entirely?

That's obviously the head of one in the background.

Y'know what they could do, is come up with some sort of battle tome type deal with stats on all the models currently in the line or something.

Start letting those sweet sweet leaks drip!

The one fighting against the Sigmar priest? Kinda unlikely.

Also, way too buffed out for an elf.

Would not be surprised if there are only 4 heroes. The original Warhammer Quest had just for in the main box.... Barbarian, Wizard, Elf, and Dwarf...and there are only 4 on this previewed box art. The previous rumors (Ogor and such) may or may not have included some planned expansion hero packs?

I think that even the atrocious stormcast cant spoil this relaese. It look incredible. And since multiples heroes are supposed to be included, we can all toss the SE to the side and pretend that the game is set in the old world.

Super excited although wouldn't the Sigmarine be able to just wipe the floor with everyone with his mega powers?

The original rumours from Hastings, Sad panda and Darnok got the title correct, the release date correct, the antogonist correct, the birdmen correct etc. Why would just this part be wrong? I am really hoping there are at least 8 heroes.

Er no stormcast are not as powerful as you think don't think of them as fantasy space marines. Fluff wise stormcast are about the strength of a chaos warrior its why sigmar made them since he saw the normal humans of the empire get smacked in the face by them. Hell they can die of hunger, they get tired and they actually feel fear.

True. Looks like a Chaos Warrior/Marauder. The crescent moon is a Tzeentchian symbol since Realm of Chaos.

Huh, somehow I was under the impression that they were just empty armor filled with special lightning. They really should do some helmet less guys and give them a bit of humanity.

The Knight Heraldor is probably as close as you're likely to get to an unhelmeted Stormcast Eternal.

Really looking forward to this. Just hope the models look reasonable; the characters in the art look great.
