Warcry/Tactics/Stormcast Eternals Vanguard Chamber

This is the Age of Sigmar, so OF COURSE, the sigmarite bois are going to be present. As the Face of Sigmar, you get 3 different factions.

Faction Overview

A surprisingly ranged Warband with some potential in melee and mobility. For all three ranged fighters, there is also a Leader option. Special for SCE is their Leaders have the same Fighting and weapon characteristics as the troopers just with 30 instead of 20 wounds (Lifepoints).

Pros

• Tough Bodies: each hunter is T5 with 20 wound
• lot of range fire: all the main stormboys have Ranged weapons, with Hunters having pistols they can shot while running and the Raptors have crossbows to pick off enemies
• Fast moving Beasts: to make up for amour, your birds are fast and spam able flyers, and hound while only slightly cheaper than Hunters still back a punch.

Cons

• Limited modules count and Exspensive: your paying about 200+pts for each fighter and the Hound is 150. Unless you spam birds, your getting fewer activations.
• quickly go down to crits
