What makes it sad for me was that I was finishing up a large group of Sancrosanct units and I thought to myself, I can't wait to play them and use them. As soon as I heard they were going away I was devastated. I do hope that there is more stories in the future that describes what has been happening with the chamber and what they have been doing in the reforging or different perspectives of different units.
Great video as always! Also if you are going to cover Anvils of Heldenhammer, I'd highly recommend checking out their newest book "The Ancients". It has some pretty cool insight into their command and rituals.
This video is rather sad for me to see. I loved the Sacrosanct and it was really cool. I loved the wizard part of them (I play Grey Knights and Thousand Sons in 40K, Tzeentch is my favorite chaos god, and the High Elves are my favorite Fantasy faction (and they use alot of wizards). I loved how they were trying to fix the reforging process. And given the new group of Stormcast are dealing with those who have had to deal with the consequences of constantly being reforged they could’ve had so many awesome stories told. Also I loved their models. They had the right amount of detail without the problem that so many AoS models have which is being over-designed which really makes them not look nearly as good as they otherwise could be. GW pulling the Sacrosanct was the final nail in the coffin for me dropping AoS (sane with the beastmen too). Yes I’m gone with the game and setting. I may still get the Stormcast dragons but any “AoS” model(s) I get will be Fantasy/The Old World models like they were originally or will be kitbashed and used in other games. And this was a long time coming as I was losing interest in AoS and was looking at other games among other things. AoS not only got me into Warhammer but Wargaming. I started with the Sacrosanct and thought they were really cool. I got some “older” Stormcast models too. but now most of my army is now no longer viable. It hurts so much, and with the 40K armies I want, Legions Imperialis, and not that Fantasy is back (along with some historical games) I don’t think I want to spend the money to get my Stormcast force back up
As a player with a pretty large collection of stormcast (6000ish points) this lore explanation for why I lost like 1500 points of that was really helpful. I have ended up kitbashing many of them into usable models but it was a sour feeling for sure. Thanks for easing the loss with your explanation.
Hey love your AoS vids! Can’t wait for more! I have a question that’s been bugging me. Are new Stormcast souls claimed to the current setting? Or were they all claimed from the Age of Chaos? Thanks!
I am convinced that AoS 5 starter box (against alliance death in the rotation) is gonna be about Astreia's crew going back against Ushoran's court to try and get the cure to the flaw of the reforging.
I got into AOS via the soul wars box sets. Spent a lot of money on the models. When 3rd came out I added chariots but didn't want to spend another £300. It broke my heart to have the models just removed. Wtf. Liberators get a new sculpt but sequitors just go. It really leaves a bad taste. I have 2 ballistars 25 sequitors, evocators about 20 castigators all just in a case. I'm also a bit annoyed the prosecutors got new sculpts after spending a fortune on the old ones (white boxes direct from Warhammer world). I prefer the old wings at least.

Same here man, same here.
F for Sacroscants who were my first models I ever painted
On the other hand I give them one two editions to return
Hello again Doug. Love your work. Sigmar surely approves
Sacrosanct are still able to be played until next Summer.
Great video as always!

My favorite chamber. I hope they remake them in "slim" version

Funny how I only appreciate the sacrosanct chamber after they left, thanks Doug
The dracolines were literally my favorite model. All the stormcast I owned were sacrosanct. I'm still gutted.
Sacrosanct were so unique in lore and gameplay. I miss them. Not those ridiculous bow-guns though.
Just do normal guns.
