Yes, Makari is back! Rumours that he’d been sat on were greatly exaggerated. But who could his big green buddy be? We’ll just have to wait and see…
Next up? Loads of news for the Mortal Realms.

The last few weeks have seen the Warhammer Age of Sigmar community work itself into a frenzy. Just who – or what – are pointy aelves? And what does Teclis have planned for them? It’s time to find out.

These are the Lumineth Realm-lords – the ultimate expression of what it means to be “aelf”. Take even the “standard” infantry of the army – Vanari Auralan Wardens. These hearken back to the High Elf Spearmen that made up many a classic Warhammer army, and they’re packed with rich detail never previously thought possible. They are also more than mere soldiers – runes, jewels and little talismans help place these warriors as part of a fully realised aelven culture. 
Aelves have an aeons-long tradition of formidable cavalry. After years of seeing aelves ride everything from drakes to eels, the Lumineth Realm-lords have gone full circle back to horses. Yes, honest-to-goodness horses! The Vanari Dawnriders are filled with grace and movement that make them instantly eye-catching on the battlefield.
Teclis isn’t the only name you might recognise amongst the new range. The Light of Eltharion sees one of the most legendary heroes of this ancient race return with a truly stunning new miniature. Look closer – that armour is hollow. 
And, of course, we have the return of perhaps Warhammer’s most famous aelven character – Teclis himself. For years, this mage has graced tabletops, books, video games and, of course, your imagination in all manner of guises. Now, in 2020, Teclis returns with a model truly worthy of a god.
What in the eight realms is that thing he’s riding on? Well, that’s Celennar, Spirit of Hysh! We can’t wait to tell you all about them.
And that’s not even the whole of it – we’ll have EVEN MORE Lumineth Realm-lords to show you closer to their release. 
In the meantime, aelves aren’t the only ones getting a new battletome.
The Seraphon are getting a new battletome! And this awesome thing…
From the earliest days of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, the Seraphon have been a massively popular faction – they were even one of the first to get a battletome! Now you’ll be able to field them with all the nifty allegiance abilities, sub-faction rules and more that you’ve come to expect from a modern Warhammer Age of Sigmar army.
The new battletome fully explores the origins and nature of the Seraphon in the Mortal Realms. You’ll have the chance to find out how the original refugees from the world-that-was became the celestially charged Starborne, and how the Seraphon are changing into the Coalesced – whatever that means. 
You won’t have long to wait until this new Seraphon battletome and scenery hits shelves – keep an eye out for more previews soon.

The battle for Beastgrave reaches fever pitch with a foetid new collection of fighters…
eet The Wurmspat – a warband of repellent Rotbringers ready to bring Nurgle’s love to the ultimate competitive miniatures game.
Consisting of two Putrid Blightkings and Sorcerer Fecula Flyblown, this Warhammer Underworlds warband employs the unique play style of the Maggotkin of Nurgle – they’re durable, relentless and superb at wearing enemies down in a battle of attrition. Also, if you thought Nurglings were cute, check out this adorable little retchling!
