Description

Stormcast Eternals: Dracothian Guard – The Thunderous Elite Cavalry

The Dracothian Guard are among the most fearsome warriors in the armies of the Stormcast Eternals. These elite troops ride massive, semi-sentient, draconic beasts known as Dracoths into the heart of the enemy lines. Fusing the unbreakable resolve of a Sigmarite warrior with the primal fury of a celestial monster, the Dracothian Guard deliver devastating shock assaults that can break the back of any opposing force in the Age of Sigmar.

This highly customizable plastic kit is essential for any Stormcast Eternals collector, allowing you to build a unit of unparalleled power and versatility for your Grand Alliance Order army.

Lore: The Bond of Lightning and Fury

The warriors chosen to join the Dracothian Guard are among the most dedicated and powerful of the Stormcast Eternals. Their bond with their Dracoth mount is forged in the celestial fires of Azyr, creating a symbiotic relationship that enhances both the rider’s martial skill and the beast’s raw power. When they charge, they are accompanied by crackling arcs of celestial lightning, symbolizing the fury of the storm they represent.

These units are often deployed as the vanguard, tasked with shattering fortified positions or eliminating key enemy commanders. They are the embodiment of Sigmar’s righteous wrath made manifest in the Mortal Realms.

Battlefield Role: Unstoppable Shock Assault

In Age of Sigmar, the Dracothian Guard function as premier heavy shock cavalry. They boast high movement, exceptional durability, and tremendous damage output, particularly on the charge. Their ability to deliver high-rending attacks makes them ideal for tackling heavily armored enemies or monster units.

Due to their high point cost and immense power, they are often used strategically to punch holes in the enemy line, allowing supporting infantry to exploit the resulting gaps. Their presence demands immediate attention from your opponent, drawing fire away from other crucial units.

Versatile Wargear and Unit Variants

The true strength of this hobby kit lies in its versatility. The box provides the components necessary to build a unit of two Dracothian Guard, and crucially, allows you to assemble them as one of three distinct, powerful variants, each fulfilling a different tactical role on the battlefield:

• Fulminators: Armed with powerful stormstrike glaives and sigmarite shields. These are the dedicated shock troops, excelling at sustained melee combat and delivering crushing blows against heavily armored foes.
• Tempestors: Equipped with volleystorm crossbows, warblades, and sigmarite shields. These provide crucial ranged support, allowing the unit to contribute damage before closing into melee, making them highly adaptable.
• Concussors: Wielding devastating lightning hammers and sigmarite shields. These specialists are designed to eliminate high-toughness targets and monsters, with their hammers often delivering mortal wounds fueled by celestial energy.

Whether you need sustained melee power, ranged versatility, or monster-slaying capability, the Dracothian Guard kit offers the perfect solution for reinforcing your Stormcast Eternals army. Secure this elite unit and dominate the battlefield!
