Stormcast Eternals – Lord-Commander Bastian Carthalos
5" 8 3+ 2 Bastian Carthalos is Lord-Commander of the Hammers of Sigmar. As a mortal, he led his warriors in a daring assault against the Everchosen himself, buying time for the God-King to lead the retreat to Azyr. Sigmar looked upon Bastian’s valour with favour, calling on the ninth Great Bolt, Skjordamar, to Reforge his shattered form. | ||

 Passive |
VOICE OF THUNDER: Lord‑Commanders are among the few faithful who can commune with Sigmar in the heat of battle. Their words are like booming thunderclaps, each order ringing across the battlefield.
Effect: Each time a friendly STORMCAST ETERNALS unit wholly within 12" of this unit uses the ‘All-out Attack’ command, no command points are spent.
 Deployment Phase |
CASTELLAN OF AZYR: Centuries spent commanding Sigmar’s prime Stormhost have sharpened Bastian’s tactical nous to a deadly edge. There are few warlords more adept than he in all the armies of Order.
Declare: Pick up to 3 friendly STORMCAST ETERNALS INFANTRY units to be the targets.
Effect: Each target can use the ‘Normal Move’ ability as if it were your movement phase.
Effect: Each target can use the ‘Normal Move’ ability as if it were your movement phase.
 End of Any Turn |
MANTLE OF THE FIRST STORM: Bastian’s armour is among the first of its kind, laboured over by Grungni himself and charged with the same holy energies as the Anvil of Apotheosis. It is a symbol of, and potent boon to, the Thunderborn’s already legendary willpower.
Effect: If any enemy models were slain by this unit’s attacks this turn, Heal (4) this unit.

Roll a dice. If the roll equals or exceeds the attacking weapon’s Hit characteristic, the attack scores a successful hit: move on to the next step. If not, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. Unmodified hit rolls of 1 always fail. If an unmodified hit roll for an attack made with a weapon is a 6, that attack is a critical hit.| Critical hits have no effect on their own but often trigger additional effects (see 20.0 Weapon Abilities). | ||
18.1 Ward Saves
Units with the WARD keyword have the ‘Ward Save’ passive ability. The number after the WARD keyword indicates the ward value for the ward save. If a unit had WARD (5+), for example, its ward value would be 5. If a unit has more than one ward save, only the ward save with the lowest value applies to it; the other has no effect.| Passive |
WARD SAVE: Whether through their uncanny reflexes, unnatural toughness or a source of mystical protection, these warriors can avoid otherwise lethal attacks.
Effect: In step 1 of the damage sequence (see 18.0), make a ward roll of D6 for each damage point in this unit’s damage pool. If the roll equals or exceeds this unit’s ward value, remove that damage point from the damage pool.
