====Priest==== *'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/Downloads//ENG_Lord_Relictor.pdf Lord-Relictor]:''' (145pts) Your foot-slogging cleric with a wicked skull helm. He has two unique prayers, one where he can choose to either heal a friendly {{AOSKeyword|Stormcast Eternals}} unit wholly within 12" for D3 wounds (best used on other Heroes), or to make an enemy unit wholly within 12" take d3 mortal wounds, and hae them suffer -1 to hit until your next hero phase. Best used on nearby enemy heroes. You will also choose 1 of the 6 prayers (which can be cast each turn in addition to one of the 2 just described). While no slouch in combat, he's nowhere near as good as a Lord-Celestant; of course, this isn't why you take him. The best use for him is in the "secondary" line, using his healing buff to keep your men in fighting shape and lending a hand with the lightning storm anywhere they're struggling. Heroes and paladins of all types will find him a very good "best bud." The comparison between him and the Lord-Celestant is easily explained: the Celestant is the fighter of the party while the Relictor is the cleric. Remember that the healing storm can't actually bring things back to life, it only heals stuff that's still alive. Frankly, the guy is awesome. The advent of Prayers gives him two options to influence the game in the Hero Phase, neither of which can be unbound. Favorite combo - "the FUCK YOU button": Give him the prayer Divine Light and then use his Lightning in enemy mode. With luck you'll have a unit that's taken D3 wounds, is -1 to hit, and your whole army gets to re-roll ones against them. His biggest draw now is ultimately cost- he's not as cheap as he used to be, but he's by no means the most expensive hero in the Stormcast hero lineup. Consider him carefully, especially now that Translocation can teleport your heavy paladins around. Also, he gets +1 to chanting rolls, meaning that no matter what you ask him to do, he's probably going to get that prayer answered. *'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/aos-warscroll-Lord-Veritant-ENG.pdf Lord-Veritant]:''' (155 pts) Another Priest, Has extra wounds compared to standard heroes just like the Castellant, and gets a pretty good melee profile (3 attacks at 3+/3+/-1, 2 damage each). Again, like the Castellant, he gets a Free pet gryph-hound who no longer counts as a seperate model bringing his overall wounds to a healthy 8. He can unbind one spell in the same way as a wizard, and has a 50/50 chance of doing D3 mortal wounds to an enemy unit within 12" with his prayer. Which isn't a spell so there <strike>is no way</strike> are very few ways for the enemy to stop it (The Knight Relictor in this army book being one such example). Also it now effects any unit, not just wizards. Last but not least he is a priest, so don't forget to throw some extra prayers on him. His role is more of an assassin than the Relictor's more support role, choose accordingly for him when deciding on prayers. His biggest con is, like the Castellant, he's lost some of his mojo, and just isn't as strong as he used to be, despite increasing in price, though getting a bit more tanky by technicality. Still, he's a sturdy priest with an unbind and decent arm behind a solid blade. Potentially a good pair with the Witch Hunters in Cities of Sigmar lists. Also good if you have a spare hero slot and you cant decide on getting another Wizard for magical defense or a priest for utility: just get a Veritant, he does both roles surprisingly well. *'''Knight-Relictor:''' (140 pts) The newest priest, and the only Thunderstrike option. He's a fairly basic model though, with a pretty decent mace with 3+ hit/3+ wound/-1 Rend/2 Damage. His most important power is the ability to negate the effects of enemy prayers or invocations on a 4+, giving you a big bubble of anti-priestness. Super useful if your local meta has tons of priests, but will likely become even more relevant if the coming army books expand each army's access to Priests like many think will happen. Keep an eye on him.
