With Heroes, an elite Battleline, and both mobile and heavy support, this Battleforce boxed set is an ideal way to start a full Stormcast Eternals army, or add to an existing collection with models clad in Thunderstrike armour. The box includes 26 plastic miniatures for use in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, and will also save you money compared to buying the contents individually. It's always an excellent service with brilliant products at a very competitive price - will use again!

Seven battleforces is a darn sight more than the four we’ve seen in the last couple of years. In fact it’s only one box less than the number of Warhammer 40k battleforces GW announced for 2022.These Age of Sigmar boxes were revealed, alongside their 40k cousins, on Monday November 7 in a Warhammer Community article. The announcement didn’t deign to give a release date or price however. As I was going, I got to know the models. I began to learn their shapes and the patterns in their construction. Piecing together the Liberators was a brilliant confidence-building exercise for a brand-new hobbyist like I was – the models in the Start Collecting! kits are not as idiot-proof as the push-fit miniatures and are assembled with glue, which allows for just enough variable options to give the newly-initiated the freedom they need to make their first units their own. Our fantasy figure range consists of Goblins, Dwarves, bits, bobs and things that go bump in the night..... When it comes to painting, there is nothing better to start with than a Liberator: easy shapes, few colours, familiar textures, and just enough details on the shields and shoulderpads to begin honing those finer painting skills. The models are just detailed enough to be a challenge, yet not so detailed as to be intimidating – and this is where the beauty of the box and the genius of the Stormcast Eternal faction really begins to shine.

Obviously, there were some rumors disproven about what armies will actually be included for Battleforces in 2022, but there’s plenty to see now for what is coming this year for Christmas! Start Collecting Stormcast Eternals Thunderstrike Brotherhood The Thunderstrike Brotherhood box in all its blue-and-gold glory. For the beginner hobbyist, the Stormcast Eternals are the perfect faction, and the Stormcast Thunderstrike box is quite possibly the best place to not only start collecting Stormcast Eternals, but to enter the hobby as a whole.FauxHammer – Latest Video on YouTube Stormcast Eternals: Thunderstrike Brotherhood Review – Summary Once the Thunderstrike Brotherhood are battle-ready (the inclusion of each unit’s warscroll in the box ensures they are just so), which at eighteen miniatures is not too strenuous a task, the entire range awaits. Sequitors and Evocators are a logical stepping stone from the Start Collecting! box: throw in some cloth robes, begin working on edge highlighting and, of course, shading. The entire Stormcast Eternals faction is suddenly within the grasp of the novice painter. Stormcast Eternals: Thunderstrike Brotherhood – Price and Availability

There are new techniques to be learned with each new model as you progress through the Thunderstrike Brotherhood box, but that familiar Liberator shape is similar enough to keep the newly initiated comfortable whilst testing their skills with small variations on painted details. Suddenly, that samey, copy-paste base design of that humble Liberator becomes genius for building the confidence of new painters. The design of the minis found in the Stormcast Eternals Thunderstrike box is, as discussed above, underrated. Whilst more experienced painters looking to add to their collections, as well as die-hard Old World fans, may see as the models’ weaknesses, are the faction’s strengths for the newbie: the fact each model is so straightforward in its design and similar to the next means that they are the perfect range for the newcomer, whilst simultaneously the skilled hobbyist can create some truly incredible conversions, and in a truly talented pair of hands, even the unassuming Sequitor can become a thing of true beauty – take a look at Longleaf Miniatures’ incredible Dark Souls-inspired Lion-Knights of Sigmar. The reason for this is the aforementioned familiarity in the design of the models – that source of such ire for some – and those models included in this box (a Lord-Celestant on Dracoth, a Lord-Relictor, three Prosecutors, three Retributors, and 10 Liberators, including two Liberator-Primes) take full advantage of this, as we shall see. Stormcast Eternals: Thunderstrike Brotherhood – Points Obviously, some repeat SM (some flavor of Marine), Chaos (of sorts), and Xenos. However, this year there somehow isn’t a single Xenos faction included… In spite of the faction’s mixed reception within the Warhammer community, the Start Collecting! Stormcast Eternals Thunderstrike Brotherhood may well be the best place to enter Age of Sigmar for a new hobbyist. Stormcast Eternals: Thunderstrike Brotherhood – IntroductionSo expect more on these very soon, and get ready to save those hobby dollars for what is normally the first week of December release date! What We Know About Warhammer Battleforces Since 2016 Before we get into the Thunderstrike Brotherhood box in earnest, a little must be said about the Stormcast Eternals’ faction design as a whole and its quiet brilliance. So, let’s starts with the Liberator. Stormcast Eternals: Thunderstrike Brotherhood – Box Contents Using a pair of Citadel snippers and a mould line remover, I had no problems getting everything off the sprue without any disasters.

For now, though, it is hard to know sure what the overall pricing of all the new Battleforces will be in 2022, as traditionally, Games Workshop revealed them around the middle of November (except this year and in 2018). Great review sir! I myself have worked through 3 of these boxes if only to get my hands on the Lord-Relicators. It’s a nice change to see someone defending(?); maybe too strong a word, but at least not being overly critical on the Golden Boys as if it’s a hobby in it’s own right. The fact these models have been chosen for inclusion is clever: the familiar Liberator shape transfers from model to model, but the handful of small differences from unit to unit keeps challenging the novice builder and requires slightly more thought each time – but is never so much as to be intimidatingly difficult. For a beginner, confidence grows with each successful model built, and before long, and without too much trouble, you’ll have eighteen warriors ready for a splash of colour.
