If nothing else, for existing Sylvaneth players, it feels like the first time in many years the faction feels like it should. And I woodn’t trade that for the world. You’ll also find a a collection of missions for Incursion and Strike Force games, plus a collection of every secondary objective available to all factions across Warhammer 40,000 – perfect for preparing your next game.

At the end of the charge phase, roll a dice for each unit within 1" of this terrain feature that does not have the Sylvaneth keyword. On a 6, that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds. For this army, I will make a Treelord Ancient my general and give them the Gnarled Warrior command trait making them incredibly resilient. After that, the general will nab the Vesperal Gem artifact along with the Throne of Vines’ unique spell. Warhammer Community will host free rules for all five of these Regiments of Renown next week, or you can get a physical copy in the next issue of White Dwarf . I started this army in 2019, and the latest additions have really refreshed my love for the faction. I think the Gossamid Archers are my favourite unit now – the models are such a showcase of modern miniature design. They’re incredibly dynamic, and even the height of their bases gives them added presence to the battlefield.

This is best for fragile units like Tree-Revenants and Spite-Revenants who can hit hard, but who may get turned into tinderwood on the counter.*** You could also use Alarielle to summon in a Treelord or Hunters, which could also add to your damage output.

Unique Spell all Sylvaneth Wizards know Verdant Blessing: Casts on a 6 with range 18”, if successful set up 1 Awakened Wyldwood terrain feature wholly within range and more than 3” from all other models, terrain features, and objectives. I will put everything but the Treelord ancient into a battle regiment and get a two-drop list. This will generally allow you to decide who goes first, and I would allow my opponent to take the first turn. This will protect your pieces but allow you to teleport around on your turn and potently get a turn two double turn, which would be immensely powerful in this army. Next week on Warhammer Community, we’re on the run from something terrifying in the underhive, taking a leaf out of the Codewright’s book and brushing up on the Kharadron Overlord’s rules, and plenty more besides. Sign up to the newsletter to stay turned!The Sylvaneth battletome book for the 3rd edition Age of Sigmar has been out for a while now and has some new ways to list built around the various sub-factions within. It also has some fantastic new models as well! Kurnoth Hunters with Greatswords now have a key edge on their scythe and bow-wielding kin, dealing mortal wounds in addition to their normal damage on a wound roll of a 6, making them particularly excellent against well-armoured foes.

As the End Times drew near, desperate battles for survival broke out all over the Old World. A relentless tide of Chaos bore down on civilisation, and even Altdorf, capital of the Empire, came under assault – pitting mythical heroes against servants of the Dark Powers in a struggle for survival. It’s rare for a Sylvaneth army to go without a Wizard, whether that’s a Branchwych or Alarielle herself, and with the Lore of the Deepwood, you’ll have a powerful new range of options for them to unleash in battle. Verdurous Harmony, for instance, lets you restore lost models to nearby units. SET-UP: After territories are determined, you can set up this faction terrain feature wholly within your territory and more than 3" from all objectives and other terrain features. If both players can set up faction terrain features at the same time, they must roll off and the winner chooses who sets up their faction terrain features first. After this endless spell has moved, roll a dice for each unit that has any models it passed across. On a 2+, that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds, or D6 mortal wounds if that unit is within 3" of any Awakened Wyldwoods. This ability has no effect on Sylvaneth units. Terrors Unearthed: Wherever this rogue spirit creeps, its roots open the shallow graves of battles past, dragging grotesque remains to the surface which chill the hearts of the forest’s foes.Making him a regenerating tank of a character that can hold the line. For my extra artifact, I will give the Arc Revenant the Crown of Fell Bowers since he can keep up with your Spiterider Lancers, which will buff them in combat (especially since they strike first on a charge). Oakenbrow 2,000 Point Army List At the end of your movement phase, if there is a friendly Sylvaneth unit wholly within 6" of this terrain feature, you can remove that unit from the battlefield and set it up wholly within 6" of a different Awakened Wyldwood in your army and more than 9" from all enemy models. You can only transport up to 1 friendly unit in this way per battle round, regardless of the number of Awakened Wyldwoods in your army. The recent Sylvaneth release added several new units to the woodland warriors, including bug-mounted Spiterider Lancers and the terrifyingly tentacled Lady of Vines . Veteran Sylvaneth commander – and expert painter – Andy Wardle grabbed all these new additions for his army, and wanted to show them off to the world. Treelords of all types will be a core unit in any Sylvaneth army thanks to their changed Groundshaking Stomp, which now forces enemies to fight last in the combat phase, potentially giving you a devastating advantage.
