==Why play Stormcast Eternals?== *They are Space Marines in Fantasy, and you've always been a Space Marine fan at heart. *You hate Chaos Daemons and Nighthaunt. *You want to run an all-dragon army. Especially doable with the new Draconith units available. *If you're into metal music, there's plenty of thematic songs to choose from. *You resent the idea that only Chaos and [[Orruk Warclans|those green maniacs]] can have ultra-muscular warriors in bulky armor. *Thor is your favorite Avenger and/or Mythological figure and you want a whole army that fight like him. '''Pros''' *Fairly tough, well-armored Troops. *Newbie friendly, very forgiving of mistakes. *You have a constant supply of new models. Seriously, you've had one big release per year every year since the game launched. The Lord Sigmar saw his legions in 2021 and said it was good enough for the moment. *Lots of options in both Heroes and Units to pick from, making it possible to fill out a wide variety of battle strategies. *Have many abilities to restore Wounds. *You have a staggering 76 Warscrolls at your fingertips. You theoretically have an army loadout for every situation. *You have one of the newest battletomes currently, alongside the Orruk Warclans. *The model range provides a lot of conversion opportunities. '''Cons''' *Expect to throw out your previous Battletome every year with all the new models coming out. *Your Bravery Scores are relatively low. *When you bring 5 guys, almost everybody else brings 10. So if your opponent is on an objective you need to smash him in the knee caps to do it. Even worse now in the new edition, where everything is more expensive, and less models are on the table. About 20 models is more or less 1500 pts, so get ready to be really questioning what you want versus what you need. *No real way to stop Mortal Wounds and with your high saves and elite units they can really sting. Between this and your low bravery, Nighthaunt will hurt you bad. *You don't hate Chaos Daemons and Nighthaunt as much as you used to, and now your former friends who exclusively play Chaos and Death want some revenge. *They are Space Marines in Fantasy. *You aren't quite the favorite child Space Marines are in Fantasy, so unlike them you don't get new models and rules every week (Much to the joy of literally every other faction in the game) *Currently the most played army and basically have all the same issues that Space Marines do in 40k. Foremost among them is that just about everyone you will ever face will have some kind of plan or optimization to counter your Sigmarines. Expect Codex Creep to set in as the months pass and other battletomes get the formula down more.
