These Warhammer Age of Sigmar models may be pricey, but they earn their worth by acting as an eye-catching centerpiece for any army.
Of all Games Workshop’s many tabletop settings, Age of Sigmar has produced some of the most creative and dynamic miniatures in the company’s history. Warhammer Age of Sigmar is the flagship fantasy setting that replaced Games Workshop’s original gaming system, Warhammer Fantasy, and has grown into a vibrant and popular hobby.
The game is set in The Mortal Realms, which are physically separate worlds connected by portals known as Realmgates. Through these gates, the many varied armies in the setting battle for survival, domination, or pleasure. Some of the most ornate and impressive models of this setting are the various faction leaders, or warriors of great renown. While these are some of the most sought-after miniatures in Age of Sigmar, they are also some of the most expensive in the range. 10
Auric Runesmiter On Magmadroth
Price: £74/$118
Found all across the Mortal Realms, the Fyreslayers are a Duardin race of mercenaries and followers of the fallen god Grimnir. These fierce, tempestuous warriors seek the lost Ur-Gold of their deceased deity and will fight for any army that pays enough gold.
Auric Runesmiter on Magmadroth is the perfect centerpiece for a Fyreslayer army. The large, dragon-like Magmadroth carries a war-priest into battle and is a wonderfully detailed and dramatic model. This would make a great painting project for experienced painters looking for a challenge. Additionally, the set also builds an Auric Runeson or Auric Runefather, which can also be built on foot. 9
Lord Kroak
Price: £85/$137
Hailing from the celestial realm of Azyr, the Seraphon are a race of intelligent reptilians who are dedicated to battling the forces of Chaos. Led by the Slann Starmasters, powerful and ancient toad-like beings, the Seraphon are a hammer against the corrupting darkness.
The most ancient and powerful of all Slann is the relic priest, Lord Kroak, whose deathly, mummified appearance belies his enormous power. Sitting upon an ornate palanquin, this model is a must-have addition for any Seraphon collector. This character is the oldest wizard in the Mortal Realms and the closest link to the ancient Old Ones in the setting. 8
