I really like the axe! And the non-stormcast squire. But the stormcast has sooo many details on him, I know he is not fun to paint...

Probably the best SC i've seen so far. Good proportions, great face mask, no silly lightning ornaments. Those stylized flame/comet ornaments work a lot better imo.

They look great and the humans are perfect. The skull logo shield is cool too

This is probably just me, but it feels like a nice thought for those who live with Dementia( Alzheimers? ), and their carers. I think they'd go well in the Cities of Sigmar battletome, rather than the Stormcast one.

So they’re only one or two steps away from either total dissolution or becoming basically daemons of Sigmar? Neat.

Perfect conversion fodder! And they even come with a bonus Stormcast model.

Sheeesh thats way too many details... good luck painting all that. Another Christmas tree kind of figure I guess.

Memorians are a very cool concept.

so the old SCE were phased out because the range was to bloated with the same but different models, and we get them back as the same but different models

so instead of Sacrosanct being a little different to Liberators, we now have those who are a little different to Liberators

yeah, models look better than the others, but also Sacrosanct did on release, so I guess we see them removed next Edition

Pretty cool. The little human guy is of course the best bit.

The Sacrosanct chamber will return in "Age of Sigmar: The Stormcast Who Loved Me."

Amazing! Was so/so about the new Liberators as they were "just" Vindicators with hammers, but these are so much more Warhammer than the old range was. Much closer in feel to John Blanche's original Stormcast concepts.

I anticipate that stormcast will soon be a very popular army

Bloat means they can only add more SCE if they delete same number of SCE... so in short, yes to be removed soon.

Its not about bloat and never has been its about making all range limited from now on.

Models dont look better sorry, just a busier variation of what was already New in therms of GW minis... We dont talk Sacrosant anymore dude thats soooo 6 years ago.

Absolutely fantastic looking model.

Judging by the Liberators example, those guys could be armed with whatever option and still have the same stats.

Look great, they also look like they'll make praetors redundant in 3 years time.

Love the Stormcast dudes, very much dislike the humies that accompany them.

I hope that GW isn't going to diversify how SCE run their lists and make pure Stormcast lists untenable.

Damn, some of you are real pessimists. I think they look great (if a bit complex), and the sculptors' skills have advanced since the first, chunky Stormcast. As for the little human dude, that's cool, too! I know some people don't like the more grimdark turn they're taking, but I don't think the entire army being human dudes is going to happen anytime soon.

Looks like my Stormcast to Primarch project is back on

Sanguinius or Lorgar?

The new sigmarines look a little skinny on those big bases. I can't help but feel a return to 25mm would have helped in that regard with the sigskinnying.

Unlike Primaris, the standard base size for Sigmarines is 40mm. Some models used to need it. Others not so much. The first female Sigmarine from Underworlds fits on a 32mm base fine, see below. But 25mm isn't viable.

Thanks for the correction and I should have said 32mm. For some reason, I was assuming they were standard on 32mm instead of 40mm.

I wonder how the little hangers on get around the problems caused by their Stormcast buddies y'know... teleporting in lightning bolts and stuff..?

Definitely Lorgar.

undead sigmar i pretty cool.
i missed that the first time around.

Sanguinia or Lorgaria, as that's a female Stormcast.

Ha ha you are right. Anyway in the female Custodes era we can have female Primarchs (or Primarchines?).

If GW wants to double down on strong female characters, they should really find someone who can sculpt faces that convey those attributes visually. Or just keep the heads from some of the model lines they've discontinued!

Truth in advertising matters.

Those look great and the concept is very cool too!
