WHITE DWARF PAGE 27:
[snip]...the Stormcast Eternals can only return to proud Azyrheim through the great realmgates, which need liberating from chaos, or by dying in battle, whereupon they are reforged anew. This latter course has a price, however, and reborn Stormcast Eternals find themselves strangely changed...

Just spotted this in the latest white dwarf. Don't know if it's been mentioned before but looks like we could be getting some interesting units for the sigmarines beyond the golden poster boys. Potentially some kind of death company or troops with latent psychic abilities?

Anyone else have any suggestions?

I thought the fluff said that they lose part of their personality/memories each time they are resurrected?

I read that in the news and rumors thread, and haven't actually read anything official yet. Someone who has may be able to elaborate.

That could be a bit boring. Unless it starts sending them nuts with every rebirth? Hopefully there will more to it then simply losing their memory.

Dunno dying a little inside ever time you get resurrected sounds pretty metal.

One day you become what is a vegetable.

Chaos Stormcast Eternals! Formed after the Archaon Heresy, they've been battling the God-Emperor Sigmar's righteous Stormcast Eternals for 10,000 years....

So eventually they just become automatons. That's a neat concept.

It's kinda reminiscent of planescape a bit.... Order taken to the extreme is soulless and stagnant, and that's kinda what's happening here.
