Thousand Sons Praetor

August 2022·p. 142

THE SHORT VERSION

Rebecca uses Scarab Occult components to give the new Praetor a distinctly Thousand Sons head, crest and khopesh. A clear red layer over silver establishes the armour’s metallic depth, followed by a dark wash and contrasting metallic highlights that retain the Legion’s brilliant red appearance.

Fantastic War Hosts: Stormhosts

Creating a Stormhost can begin with a name and colours but gains depth through its realm, heroic origins, purpose and commanding characters. Examples explain primary, secondary and accent colours, while the Anvils of the Heldenhammer show how background and appearance can reinforce each other across an entire Stormcast collection.

The Fate of Barbarus: Forces Assembled

Six collectors prepare three-thousand-point Legion forces for a massive assault on the Death Guard home world. Lion El’Jonson’s campaign provides the narrative link between the Loyalists, while the Traitors gather to defend Barbarus; the feature supplies army lists and player intentions ahead of the battle planned for subsequent issues.

Death’s Deliverance

Ben’s Raven Guard represent Corax’s reluctant contribution to the Lion’s campaign. A Vigilator, specialist infantry, a trio of Contemptors and substantial aerial and armoured support divide the enemy’s attention, allowing precise attacks on vulnerable targets rather than accepting an honourable contest on the Traitors’ preferred terms.
