I was curious what ideas were floating around regarding this.
So per the army book you have:
- Ruination
- Covenant
- Logister
The themes they have went with so far are:
Warrior
Dragon riders
Rangers
Sorcerers and Siege Experts
Now normally I would assume that the Logistee chamber would be all the engineers and heavy weapons or even war engines of the Stormcast. But they already have the Ordinarus, grenade crossbows and ballista in the Sacrosanct? If that’s what the Logister chamber is then shouldn’t these be included?
Ruination ideas:
- Golems? Stormcast who have basically become automata. ie Stormcast Dreadnought
- Lightening Gheists? They have talked about how Stormcast that go mad become deranged beings of lightening so; weaponise it?
- Radical Stormcast who use Chaos to beat Chaos. Daemonic swords etc etc
- Something else really shifty.
Covenant:
- Honestly I don’t have any idea for this one. I would assume it’s to do with some bond between the Stormcast and something else. But they already pulled that with the Extremis and Dracothian.
- A more religious focused branch of the Stormcast. Think D&D clerics as opposed to Paladins or Sorcerers like in the Sacrosanct. So the Covenant is their bond with Sigmar himself. Yes you do have chambers like the Hallowed Knights; but that just means these guys are the real deal.
Logister:
- Siege engines
- War Machines (Stormcast “Steamtank” or even Dreadnought)

What we haven't seen yet is differently-sized Stormcast - neither halfling/dwarf/goblin or ogre.

I think covenant will be next, with the reforging screwing up SCE souls. They should have troops that look similar to lord relictors and sport a hooded look and be completely robed to set themselves apart from the sacrosant chamber.

I wonder how reforging of non-humans works, or if they have retconned it. I suspect that Lord-Ordinators are former Duardin but that is just a theory.

Don't forget 2 chambers will be "that can never be opened or is ever talked about. All documentations or knowledge what is in the chambers is unknown".

I thought there would be some sort of big artillery type chamber but the sacrosanct chamber seems to have that covered. Then again, it is only a blista. Nothing like a huge trebuchet or cannon.
