Dominion of Sigmar: The Enduring Stormvault

Forbidden Power Warscroll Cards

Hello everyone !!

Warhammer tv team just revealed more info about the Penumbral engines and the Enduring Stormvault .

Following Forbidden Power rules,
-All Age of Sigmar armies get to add a Penumbral Engine.
-At the star of the game you roll one dice for all Penumbral Engines on the battlefield to select the power they have. The Corrupted by Sigmar version or The Original Teclis intent ^^

Hello everyone !!!

Games Workshop just revealed more infos on the Stormvault Campaign.

Awakened Artefacts !

In the Stormvault Campaign, you and your opponents each race to unlock the Stormvaults, duking it out through a series of bespoke battleplans in search of treasure and glory. There’s a twist, however – in this campaign, you’ll have access to mysterious artefacts that increase in power over the course of your games.

Nice ! Forbidden Power rules integrating RPG elements is interesting and who doesn't like to lvl up ^^

How does it works ?

At the start of your second Stormvault Campaign games you'll be able to pic an awakened artefacts to represent the immense treasures contained in them. They works like any artefact of power you could find in the seraphon battletome but with a twist !
After each game the awakened artefact get a new power !!

Check this one :

My Minotaur lord like this awakened artefact !!! So in this exemple to lvl up you need to slay foes during an Age of Sigmar battle. Also Forbidden Power rules on artifacts create a new interesting dynamic :

This adds a new dynamic to your games for you and enemies. Do they try and slay the wielder of Gheistbane early in the battle, or do they risk you gaining a level and becoming stronger in the campaign overall? Do you hold back with your hero, or do you get stuck in early on to make the maximum impact?

Hello there !!

Forbidden Power for age of sigmar is nearly on pre order and games workshop already released their Warscrolls !!

Lauchon the Soulseeker

Soulscream Bridge

Horrorghast

Shards of Valagharr

Hot Takes

These Endless Spells being available to every Grand Alliance are going to be huge. Specialy Lauchon the SoulSeeker and the Soulscream Bridge. Who want to fight a Daugthers of Khaine list with teleport. But at the same time maybe theses Endless SPells are going to open some counter play against some boogeyman meta list.

Soulscream Bridge is super interesting because Only friendly unit can travel through it and in both side. The tricks you can do with this one are hugeeeee. Nothing prevent you to cast it near a friendly engaged unit and teleport it away and replace it by another unit with extended charge range !!! Super Fan of this endless spell. !! Yea warhammer age of sigmar is going to change again for sure !!

Horrorghast is a Bravery debuff the -2 maus against unit within 6 so it's potent in a bravery plan.

Shards of Valagharr : is maybe the most powerfull Endless spells in the game. but the roll off at the start of a battle turn make it super risky to use. But halving movement and -1 to hit to everyone on the line is scary !!!

Note that all these Spell have extended effect in the realm of Death that project them in the OP category ^^ Imagine a shard that could place 12" from the caster and then place the second 12" !!!

I really like these spells and want to try them in my Beast of Chaos army or The Nurgle force that i am setting up ! These movements tricks are desirable when you are slow as a Blight King !

Hello everyone !!!

Great new article by Warhammer Tv team about the lore in the next age of Sigmar extension: Forbidden Power.

Lore Summary

-Stormvaults are "phat loot" chests with Relics and Items/power/spells too dangerous for the Mortal Realms. (So the Nagash Prisoner is inside ?)
-Aelven god Teclis built during the age of Myth: Enlightenment Engines to share is knowledge of ....well everything.
-Sneaky Sigmar decided to invert the Teclis creation to hide Stormvault.
-Smith God Grungni helped (Teclis rival) and transformed Enlightenment Engines into Penumbral Engines to Obscure and conceal

-Necroquake Happen and shake things up, lot of Sigmar Stormvault are discovered and everyone is rushing to loot. Karadron want to plunder vaults and Idoneth want to repair Penumbral Engine to hide entire armies!

-A great Ancient evil is trapped under the shore of Lake Lethis !!

Honestly, I am really curious to read who is under the Lake as it will probably mean a new army or sub-faction to the Death Grand Alliance.
Still hoping for a big surprise here and why not Age of Sigmar Tomb king ^^

Go read the full article here: Forbbiden power lore

Endless Spells

The descriptions of the new endless spells for Age of Sigmar in the video is interesting knowing they are available to every army!

-Teleport spell for a cost (soul)
-Bravery debuff
-Move blocker

Hello everyone !!

Lot of Expensive plastic this week. Especially if you want Dominion Of Sigmar (wargaming terrains) and The Forbidden power extension.

Age of Sigmar Forbidden Power price : 55£ / 70€
Dominion of Sigmar, The Enduring Stormvault price : 95£ / 125€ (ouchies)
Dominion of Sigmar, Sigmarite Dais : 40£ / 55€
Dominion of Sigmar, Shattered Temple : 27.50£ / 35€
Dominion of Sigmar, Timeworn Ruins : 25£ / 32.5€

Ok the kit is massive still 125€ is a big price tag for wargaming terrains. Especially in world filled with 3d printer and on the wargaming terrain 28mm segment.

Because if you buy the whole pack for 250€ you are not far from a decent 3D printer that you can upgrade yourself :D

Anyway the Age of Sigmar terrains look great painted and i love painting wargame terrains (with my Air Brush off course^^) so i think i am buying them anyway.

Try searching for : wargaming terrains 28m on https://www.yeggi.com it's fun ^^

Hello everyone !!

Age of Sigmar Rpg update :

Cubicle7 the group behind the Warhammer fantasy roleplay 4th edition updated their blog with new infos on their next product Soulbound an Age of Sigmar Rpg.

Soulbound Starter Set

The starter set for soulbound will have :

-Book 1 : An adventure book that will teach players and GMs how to play Soulbound
-Book 2 : City guide that will give more information on a brand new city in the realm of Aqshy
-Pre-generated Charaters,
-Player Handouts
-Reference Sheets
-Goodies (no details yet)

Starter set cover :

Charaters Archetypes

An Archetype defines the broad strokes of the character you play in the game. It may be your job, a calling, a military rank, or something a little more esoteric, but whatever it is it represents who you are when you first pick up the dice.

Sound a lot like a starting proffession mix background story and they have very cool Illustrations already:

We also think it’s important to focus on daily life and what it entails for the people who live there. This will give both players and GMs an idea of what it would be like to adventure in these lands, who they might meet, and the threats they might face. It provides a grounding for you to set your adventure in any Realm you choose.

I was hoping for something like this !! Let be honest one minutes, Age of Sigmar setting is great and the vastness of the Realms is good to create Races / Civilisations / Worlds for a miniatures wargame like Warhammer Age of Sigmar. But it lack the details and the common life we used to know about the old world. Off course the Old World was inspired by Europe and it was easy to relate.

I am really eager to read the descriptions of the different Realms and play this Age of sigmar Rpg

Next Monday C7 is explaining how Tests Work in Soulbound !!

/Cheers.
Bob.

Hello everyone !!

This weekend the new Age of Sigmar expansion by Games Workshop is on pre-order.
As usual Warhammer TV team tease some stuff :

Introduction : Content of the Box :

-One Penumbral Engine sprue,( scenery available for each army).
-3 Endless spells sprues
-Warscroll cards with rules for everything in the box + plus the new Dominion of Sigmar scenery…
https://www.warofsigmar.com/bloggings/3847
-Tokens for endless spells
-Core rules
-Forbidden power book

Forbidden Power – The Book

For me, the most anticipated part of this book is the storyline progression and i hope for some great reveal :

TECLIS Lord of illumination is announced as a dramatis personae !!! in the Summary. As well as the "Great Maker", Sigmar, and Nagash.

Teclis is back !!!! Awesome !! I am not sure what does it mean for the identity of the prisoner in the vault that was spoiled with this illustration :

Maybe the prisoner is connected to the Elves of Light, maybe it's related to Slaanesh ? but it wouldn't make sense with the Nagash Ally tease we got the other day.

If you are more concerned with the rules inside the book, be at ease :
-New campaign system to lvl up characters
-New realm of battles rules (Stygxx)
-2 new combined forces : Lethisian Defenders for the Order with :
*Stormcast Eternals, Idoneth Deepkin, Kharadron Overlords, Fyreslayers.
*Legion of Grief – a new Legion of Nagash led by Lady Olynder herself who allow you to combine the terrifying might of the
Nighthaunt’s full roster with Bravery-manipulating game mechanics, gravesites and more
-Flesh Eater Courts and Fyreslayers mercenaries

Hyped by the Legion of Grief !!!! I really hope Games Workshop bring some cool new mechanisms to Age of Sigmar.

Conclusion

This Age of Sigmar expansion look interesting. I am still a bit bummed that the new chapter don't have a new army (or a new chamber ^^).
But if Forbidden Power is Age of Sigmar 2.5 i guess Elves of light vs Something in prison could be the future release.

Hello everyone !!

It's time for Forbidden power to awaken :D

Forbidden power is the next expansion for Warhammer Age-of-Sigmar by Games Workshop.
The official description is :

The 88-page Forbidden Power book tells of the battle for the Midnight Tomb, as the spectral armies of Nagash lay siege to the free city of Lethis, seeking to break into the Grand Stormvault hidden beneath its streets. In addition, you will find new rules for recreating the armies that fought for Lethis, for fighting battles in the grim region of Shyish known as Stygxx, and for playing a campaign to conquer multiple Stormvaults hidden across the Mortal Realms to capture the powerful relics within.

There’s something for every faction in the book, so no matter which grand alliance you fight for or the deity you serve, your army can fight for the right to loot the forbidden Stormvaults too!

Included in the box :
1 new scenery the Penumbral Engine for Age of sigmar
4 Endless spells Soulscream Bridge, Horrorghast, Shards of Valagharr and Lauchon the Soulseeker
+ Warscrolls cards for spells and all the new Dominion scenery range (Value !!! if you plan to add these scenery box to your age of sigmar)

Howdy Guys and Girls :)

"With all the cool Warhammer Age of Sigmar stuff out this year – new grots, loads of battletomes, new endless spells and the next chapter of the ongoing Soul Wars saga – you’ll be needing somewhere appropriately epic to battle. Luckily, we’ve got just the thing. Meet the Dominion of Sigmar!

The Dominion of Sigmar is a new range of super-modular, customisable and interchangeable scenery for Warhammer Age of Sigmar that lets you transform your tabletop into a battlefield worthy of the Mortal Realms’ fiercest conflicts. Think Sector Mechanicus or Sector Imperialis, but aimed at recreating the high fantasy feel of Sigmar’s kingdoms.

Each Dominion of Sigmar set can be built as a scenery piece with its own warscroll, or can be mixed and matched with other sets to build anything you can imagine. Sprawling ruins, towering ziggurats, cavernous temple complexes – these kits are designed to make recreating the Mortal Realms at your home or gaming club easy.

They’re not just for show, either – these kits have been designed with gaming in mind. You’ll find them great for adding hills, choke-points and line-of-sight blockers to your boards, leading to deeper, more tactical battles where properly using scenery can be the difference between defeat and victory!

The Dominion of Sigmar scenery range will be available soon alongside Forbidden Power – the next chapter in the Soul Wars and the latest expansion to Warhammer Age of Sigmar!

We’ve looked at this expansion in previous seminars, but we’ve got even more to share with you today! First up, we’re excited to unveil the all-new mercenaries system. With Forbidden Power, you’ll be able to recruit renowned sell-swords to your cause regardless of Grand Alliance. So, for example, you could have a Chaos army and enlist some of the notoriously ur-gold hungry warriors of the Greyfyrd lodge…"

Regards,
Lady Atia
