Colours of Ulthuan

THE SHORT VERSION

Eight illustrated regimental identities show how High Elves can share their army’s white robes and polished steel while retaining local and personal histories. Sea Guard adopt a fallen leader’s heraldry, a Caledor household commemorates its slain Dragon, and Griffon Gate veterans record glories through moon and star motifs. The examples distinguish geographic allegiance, patronage and honours earned together, providing concrete material for themed shield and banner designs.

Editorial: Returning to Ulthuan

Andrew Kenrick welcomes the new plastic High Elf elite units and the enormous Island of Blood battle, reflecting on the Asur’s longstanding place at the centre of Warhammer. His own unfinished High Elf project has survived diversions into Warriors of Chaos and Tomb Kings, and the new models provide the excuse to return to it.

The Armies of Ulthuan

Adam Troke follows High Elf military service from a citizen’s years of archery training to spear regiments, noble cavalry and the commanders who gather contingents from across Ulthuan. The account connects regional obligations, white robes, specialist forces and the uncertain length of campaigns to a civilisation whose declining population must still defend a vast inheritance. Sculptor interviews, regimental heraldry and Althran’s response to the breach of Unicorn Gate illustrate how that background becomes distinctive miniatures and collections.
