DESCRIPTION
A Lord-Arcanum on Gryph-charger is a single model armed with an Aetherstave.
MOUNT: This model’s Gryph-charger attacks with its Razor Beak and Claws.
ABILITIES
Aethereal Strike: A Gryph-charger’s claws are supernaturally sharp, tearing through armour with ease.
If the unmodified hit roll for an attack made with a Gryph-charger’s Razor Beak and Claws is 6, that attack inflicts 1 mortal wound on the target and the attack sequence ends (do not make a wound or save roll).
If the unmodified hit roll for an attack made with a Gryph-charger’s Razor Beak and Claws is 6, that attack inflicts 1 mortal wound on the target and the attack sequence ends (do not make a wound or save roll).
Cycle of the Storm: A Lord-Arcanum is capable of capturing the soul-stuff of a fallen Stormcast Eternal, returning it back to the battlefield to continue the fight.
Once per turn, when a friendly STORMCAST ETERNAL model is slain within 18" of this model, instead of removing the slain model, you can heal 1 wound allocated to it. This model cannot use this ability on itself.

Ride the Winds Aetheric: Gryph-chargers can move faster than the eye can follow along the winds aetheric, though the shifting of these winds makes such movement perilous at times.
In your movement phase, this model can Ride the Winds Aetheric instead of moving normally. If it does so, choose the direction in which it will move, and roll 6D6. This model can move up to a number of inches equal to the result in the direction chosen, moving over terrain and other models as if it could fly. It must end the move more than 3" from enemy models – if this is impossible, it cannot move at all. This model cannot charge in a turn in which it Rides the Winds Aetheric.

Spirit Flask: As a desperate last resort, Lord- Arcanums can smash open one or more of the filled spirit flasks that they carry, causing a deadly explosion of soul energy that engulfs the wizard and anybody that is nearby.
Once per battle, at the start of the combat phase, you can say that this model will shatter 1, 2 or 3 spirit flasks. If you do so, each unit within 3" of this model suffers 1 mortal wound for each spirit flask that was shattered. Units within 3" with 10 or more models suffer D3 mortal wounds for each spirit flask that was shattered instead. Allocate the mortal wounds to this model last of all, after allocating them to any other units that are affected.

MAGIC
This model is a WIZARD. It can attempt to cast one spell in your hero phase, and attempt to unbind one spell in the enemy hero phase. It knows the Arcane Bolt, Mystic Shield and Healing Light spells. In addition, the Arcane Bolts that this model unleashes are fuelled by Prime Electrids.
Healing Light: The Lord-Arcanum gathers aetheric energy and uses it to revitalise the depleted life energies of Stormcast warriors that are nearby.
Healing Light has a casting value of 5. If successfully cast, pick a friendly STORMCAST ETERNAL model within 18" of the caster. Heal D3 wounds that have been allocated to that model. If the casting roll was 8+, heal D6 wounds that have been allocated to that model instead.

Prime Electrids: With the power of Azyr crackling through them, Lord-Arcanums can summon lightning as easily as another mortal draws breath.
If this model successfully casts Arcane Bolt and it is not unbound, then the spell inflicts D3 mortal wounds instead of 1, or D6 mortal wounds instead of D3 if the casting roll was 10+.
If this model successfully casts Arcane Bolt and it is not unbound, then the spell inflicts D3 mortal wounds instead of 1, or D6 mortal wounds instead of D3 if the casting roll was 10+.
COMMAND ABILITIES
Soul Energy: A Lord-Arcanum can enhance the soul energy of nearby units from the Sacrosanct Chamber, allowing them to perform extraordinary deeds.
You can use this command ability in your hero phase, your shooting phase, or the combat phase.
Hero Phase: If you use this command ability in your hero phase, pick a friendly unit of EVOCATORS wholly within 9" of a friendly model with this command ability. That unit can automatically cast Empower in that hero phase (no casting roll is required, and the spell cannot be unbound).
Shooting Phase: If you use this command ability in your shooting phase, pick a friendly unit of CASTIGATORS wholly within 9" of a friendly model with this command ability. You can use Aetheric Channelling to increase the accuracy and power of that unit’s Thunderhead Greatbows in that shooting phase instead of choosing only one of those options.
Combat Phase: If you use this command ability in the combat phase, pick a friendly unit of SEQUITORS wholly within 9" of a friendly model with this command ability. You can use Aetheric Channelling to increase the power of the unit’s weapons and shields in that combat phase instead of choosing only one of those options.

Modifiers
Sometimes modifiers apply to characteristics or abilities. For example, a rule might add 1 to a hit roll or the Move characteristic of a model. Modifiers are cumulative. Modifiers can never reduce a dice roll to less than 1.If a modifier applies to a random value, work out the random value first and then apply the modifier(s) to it. For example, if an ability adds 1 to a Damage characteristic of D3, the result would be worked out by rolling the D3 and adding 1 to the roll.

Making Attacks
Attacks are resolved one at a time using the following attack sequence. In some cases, you can resolve all of the attacks made by the same type of weapon at the same time (see Multiple Attacks).

Mortal Wounds
Some attacks, spells and abilities inflict mortal wounds. Do not make hit, wound or save rolls for mortal wounds. Instead, the damage inflicted on the target is equal to the number of mortal wounds that were suffered. Allocate any mortal wounds that are caused while a unit is attacking at the same time as any other wounds caused by the unit’s attacks, after all of the unit’s attacks have been completed. Mortal wounds caused at other times are allocated to models in the target unit as soon as they occur, in the same manner as wounds caused by damage from an attack.After they have been allocated, a mortal wound is treated in the same manner as any other wound for all rules purposes.

Healing Wounds
Some abilities allow wounds that have been allocated to a model to be healed. For each wound that is healed, remove one of the wounds that have been allocated to the model. You can’t heal wounds on a model that has been slain.
Normal Moves
Moves made in the movement phase are referred to as normal moves, to differentiate them from charge moves (made in the charge phase) and pile-in moves (made in the combat phase). A model making a normal move can move a distance in inches equal to or less than the Move characteristic shown on its warscroll.
Moving Over Terrain
Unless stated otherwise, a model can be moved over a terrain feature but not through it (so models can’t move through a wall, or pass through a tree, but can climb up or over them).A model can be moved vertically in order to climb or cross a terrain feature, counting the vertical distance up and/or down as part of its move.
Flying
If the warscroll for a model says that the model can fly, it can pass across models and terrain features as if they were not there when it makes any type of move. Any vertical distance up and/or down is ignored when measuring a flying model’s move. It cannot finish the move on top of another model.
Charge roll, charge move
Any of your units within 12" of the enemy in your charge phase can attempt to make a charge move. Pick an eligible unit and make a charge roll for it by rolling 2D6. Each model in the unit can move a number of inches equal to the charge roll. You cannot make a charge move with a unit that has run or retreated earlier in the turn, or with a unit that is within 3" of an enemy unit.The first model you move from a unit making a charge move must finish the move within ½" of an enemy model (you do not have to pick the target for the charge before making the charge roll). If that’s impossible, or you decide not to make the charge move, the charge fails and no models in the unit can move in this phase.
Once all models in one unit have made their charge moves, you can pick another eligible unit to make a charge attempt, until all units that you want to make charge attempts have done so.
Casting and Unbinding Spells
A WIZARD can attempt to cast spells in its own hero phase. You cannot attempt to cast the same spell more than once in the same turn (even with a different wizard).In order to cast a spell, first say which spell the wizard is going to attempt to use (it must be one they know). To cast the spell, roll 2D6. If the total is equal to or greater than the casting value of the spell, the spell is successfully cast.
If a spell is cast, the opposing player can choose one of their WIZARDS that is within 30" of the caster to attempt to unbind the spell before its effects are applied. To unbind a spell, roll 2D6. If the roll beats the roll used to cast the spell, then the spell is not successfully cast. Only one attempt can be made to unbind a spell.

Arcane Bolt
Arcane Bolt has a casting value of 5. If successfully cast, pick an enemy unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. That unit suffers 1 mortal wound. If the casting roll was 10 or more, the unit suffers D3 mortal wounds instead.
Mystic Shield
Mystic Shield has a casting value of 6. If successfully cast, pick a friendly unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them. Re-roll save rolls of 1 for that unit until your next hero phase.

Command Abilities
If you have any HEROES in your army, you can use command abilities. Some command abilities are available to all armies, like the three on the right, while others are specific to certain models and appear on their warscroll. Some of these command abilities can only be used if that model is your general; when this is the case, it will be noted in the rules for the command ability.In order to use any command ability you must spend 1 command point. You start the battle with 1 command point for each warscroll battalion you have in your army. In addition, you receive 1 command point at the start of each of your hero phases. You can use the same command ability several times in the same phase as long as you have enough command points to do so. Any command points you do not use can be used in a future turn. A command ability will usually specify when it is used; if it does not, it is used in your hero phase.
