Fuelled by the powers celestial, the Lord-Celestant that leads a Stormcast Eternal chamber is an exceptional warrior. From atop a lightning-spitting Dracoth, the commander bolsters his brethren’s resolve while delivering swift vengeance to his foes.
Unit Size: 1 Points: 200
Battlefield Role: Leader
A Lord-Celestant on Dracoth is a single model armed with either a Tempestos Hammer, a Thunderaxe, a Lightning Hammer, or a Stormstrike Glaive. They can also carry a Sigmarite Thundershield.
MOUNT: This model’s Dracoth attacks with its Claws and Fangs.
Lightning Hammer: The shockwave effect of a lightning hammer connecting with the foe stuns those in close proximity.
If the unmodified
hit roll for an attack made with a Lightning Hammer is 6, that attack inflicts 2
mortal wounds on the target in addition to its normal damage. If a unit suffers any mortal wounds in this way, it cannot
pile in later that phase.
Intolerable Damage: When a Dracoth catches its prey, there is often little left of the victim.
If the unmodified
wound roll for an attack made with a Dracoth’s Claws and Fangs is 6, that attack has a Damage characteristic of D6 instead of 1.
Sigmarite Thundershield: Thundershields store storm energy, unleashing it when struck with sufficient force to blast those attempting to attack.
You can re-roll
save rolls of 1 for attacks that target this model if this model is carrying a Sigmarite Thundershield. If the re-rolled save is successful, each enemy unit within 3" of this model suffers 1
mortal wound.
Stormstrike Glaive: By lowering a stormstrike glaive and wielding it as a lance, a Lord-Celestant can bring down the mightiest foes.
Add 2 to the Damage characteristic of this model’s Stormstrike Glaive if this model made a
charge move in the same turn.
Storm Breath: Dracoths can unleash the power of Sigmar’s storm from within their maws.
In your
shooting phase, you can pick a point on the battlefield within 12" of this model that is visible to them. Roll a dice for each enemy unit within 2" of that point. On a 4+ that unit suffers D3
mortal wounds.
Tempestos Hammer: With the momentum of the charge behind it, the impact of a tempestos hammer can fell a rampaging Ghorgon.
Add D3 to the Attacks characteristic of this model’s Tempestos Hammer if this model made a
charge move in the same turn.
Thunderaxe: In the capable hands of a Lord-Celestant, a thunderaxe draws on celestial energies until it crackles with barely contained power.
Add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of this model’s Thunderaxe for each other friendly Stormcast Eternal unit wholly within 9" of this model when the attack is made.
Lord of the Host: A Lord-Celestant is a trusted and respected leader. Their presence steels the souls of those who fight nearby.
You can use this
command ability at the start of the
battleshock phase. If you do so, pick a friendly model with this command ability. Until the end of that phase, you do not have to take battleshock tests for friendly
STORMCAST ETERNAL units that are wholly within 24" of that model.
