Knight Azyros (clampack)- 33 €

Knight Venator (clampack) - 33 €

Stormcast Eternals Upgrade Sprues- 9 €

Battletome Stormcast Eternals (New Rules) - 46 €

Found this on Facebook 8-31-2015

Rumours from lady atiaThis week releases should be afaik:
Prosecutors box, three models, should be 46,- €
Knight Azyros, should be 33,- €
(that guy is the prosecutor hero)
Knight Venator, same price as the Azyros, shooty hero
Stormcast Eternals Upgrade Sprues, should be 9,- €, with shields and stuff (we have seen the shields back with the one bundle)
Battletome Stormcast Eternals, should be 46,- €, here you have your Armybook/Codex with fluff and rules^^
Interesting storm casts are getting 2 hero's in one week ? They must be wrapping stormcasts up now

Interesting stuff, a little disappointed that the Prosecutors are only 3 models/box. But oh well.

STORMCAST ETERNAL PROSECUTORS (3 models)

46€ (same as Paladins), 35£, 60$

Good looking models, can be built with two hammers, hammer+shield, javelin+shield, special weapons: two handed blade, axe, hammer and a trident.

STORMCAST ETERNAL KNIGHT-AZYROS (1 model)

33€, 25£, 40$

A Prosecutor with a sword and lantern, allow other Eternals to DS next to him even if close from the enemy, debuff enemy units around, once per game can do a damaging aura.

STORMCAST ETERNAL KNIGHT-VENATOR (1 model)

33€, 25£, 40$

A Prosecutor with a bow and an eagle that looks like a mini phoenix. Strong shooting, once per game can use a very powerful anti hero/monster arrow.

STORMCAST ETERNAL CELESTIAL WARBRINGERS UPGRADE SPRUE

9€, 7£, 12$

5 Liberators shields, 3 Prosecutors shields, 14 shoulderpads, 5 Paladins decorative thingies.

STORMCAST ETERNAL KNIGHTS EXCELSIOR UPGRADE SPRUE

9€, 7£, 12$

Same as above

BATTLETOME: STORMCAST ETERNALS (152p hardback)

46€, 35£, 58$

I am sure a lot of people will now call it the Stormcast Codex/Army Book. Not only is it the same price as a Codex, but so is the content. 18 Warscrolls, 9 Batallions Warscrolls or whatever they are called in English, 3 Scenarios. The most complete history/organization depiction of the Stormcast to date.

Interesting.

Though the command section remains unseen?

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Well, I guess we'll see.

They don't sneak all of the models in all of the time. Look at the Prime, no one saw that coming.
Also, we have technically seen them, they were in the layout of a Brotherhood. Just no models.

[Mr Mystery]

I suppose the trumpet and vexilla could be on the upgrade sprue.

[Asymmetrical Xeno]

Was only expecting the Prosecutors. So 2 more named characters and upgrade sprues, interesting. Curious about the upgrade sprues - wonder if they are the equivilent of those recent Space marine chapter ones.

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

A good point Mystery.

That's definitely a Knight Azyros.

- - - Updated - - -

Note, the guy in the back has a bow, and the guy up front has a Decimator axe. SUCH WEAPON CHOICES.

[Mr Mystery]

That's not a bow dude.

That's a tweety bird of some description.

And if I'm wrong and it is a bow, then he's dropped it!

- - - Updated - - -

No, hold on.

He is wielding a bow.

But there is also birdy.

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Ah, good eyes, didn't notice.

So, judging by the pose of the legs, wings and scrolls, it would appear that the Knight-Venator is made from the same kit as the Knight-Azyros. Which is cool.

I'm not entirely convinced it is a bird, but it is definitely a hunting animal. Has a weird tongue thing shooting out in front of it. But that confirms that the rear guy is the Venator. (meaning hunter in Latin)

- - - Updated - - -

Oh no, what I thought was a tongue was a wing, he is face on! Ohhhhhh.

- - - Updated - - -

One of these maybe?

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Yey, the first, and maybe only, piece of Age of Sigmar literature that I will buy.

[Mr Mystery]

I can recommend the Call of Archaon series :)

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

I care not for the machinations of Chaos.

[Mr Mystery]

But they're good!

Especially the Nurgle one. It's ace!

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Away from me with your vile heresy.

http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/691/973/e75.jpg

[Mr Mystery]

It's not Heresy if it's true :p

[Ray Rivers]

Wonder if the winged lantern has special rules? ;)

[Wildeybeast]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is that £25 for one infantry model?

[40kGamer]

I don't think you're wrong.

But they are oversized with wings...

[Mr Mystery]

Yup.

[Wildeybeast]

Wow. I thought GW were riding the light fantastic when they priced the Witch Elves at £35, but that was for a box of ten. This is just.....wow.

[Mr Mystery]

Meh.

My Magos set me back £22.

[Wildeybeast]

Whaaa? Well, I guess I people pay it, so fair play to GW, might as well make as much profit as they can. It staggers me that people will pay that much, but each to their own.

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

I bought the Castellant for £23...

[Wildeybeast]

You at least get the pet griffin with that, so you can attempt to rationalise it as £11.50 per model, but £25 on one infantry model.... TBH, I'm kinda glad I'm not collecting GW any more if this is the way things are headed.

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Ok.

They're definitely using the pricing rational of a specialty company. Coupling a high price with lower volume to prop up the bottom line. It works to a point and then you experience diminishing returns... just not sure where that point is for a tabletop miniature game.

[nsc]

So giant hero models are now not allowed to cost more than one pound per?

I fail to see how this guy is "one infantry model" nor do I understand why you guys will call this "gw pricing" when it's only a couple pounds more than direct competitors.

Large heroic models are always more expensive than box of troops. This guy is clearly an HQ/Rare and has a lot of plastic+detail in him, his wings alone are the size of four terminators, he himself is the size of 1.2 terminators, he has engraved armour, a helmet the size of a scout, and you people are calling him just a trooper?

You're sour and angry at the price, fine, but calling a model like this "just a trooper" is out of line. If I go over to any other company I don't get mad at seeing prices like 18-30 pounds for similar models. And I say "similar" because nobody else produces flying-giant-statuesque-spartans with wings the size of entire space marine squads.

[Ray Rivers]

And I say "similar" because nobody else produces flying-giant-statuesque-spartans with wings the size of entire space marine squads.

And here I thought they were Giant Flying Statuesque Romans with wings the size of entire space marine squads... :o

Darn!

[nsc]

Well, if you paint them gold sure, I've been doing all my chests in fleshtone, you can grate grots on those abs

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Man, the rules are awesome! Unfortunately this forum really hates my phone, so I cannot upload the pictures!

[Mr Mystery]

Bung them up on Facebook, PM them across to me, and I should be able to post them from there.

[Ray Rivers]

Great looking minis!

Love the round Prosecutor shields and Javelins as well.

Ya think you can mod the starter box Prosecutor's with this stuff?

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

So, for those of us who can't speak the tongue of the Fatherland.

I appreciate it TDA, and fingers crossed for the Tzeench Daemonkin book which might be coming right ;)

I think I'll get a box of prosecutors and use the bits to pimp out my two starterboxes to have nine respectable prosecutors.

Love the way the javelins look.

[Mr Mystery]

Knight-Venator is looking tasty....

'Right, where's Archaon? I'm gonna shoot him in the face. Ah....there he is. LAUNCH STAR-FATED ARROW!

Meanwhile, 30" away...

"Tum-ti-tiddlytum. Being Ever-Chosen is Ace! I'm well 'ard me! Hmmm...what's that. It's getting awfully clos.....ARRRGH! ME EYES! ALL THREE OF THEM!'

[40kGamer]

Looks like an excellent basis for a fluffscale Sanguinor. This + the prosecutors look to be the first AoS sets I'll pick up since the box game.

[Asymmetrical Xeno]

I like all of these kits personally. The Persecutors are definitely my favourite unit in this faction and seem to be quite iconic for them too. Glad to see new options for the Persecutors and I like the 2 character kits. The upgrade sprues are nice too and as this is the 2nd time GW have done sprues like this recently it makes me wonder if they will do them for other armies in the two games.

Dude. Put the Knight Azyros within 10" of him and the bow is suddenly 2+ re-rolling 1s to hit.

[Mr Mystery]

Right on the end of the zinger!

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Loving how well those two Knights compliment each other.
