Hey PI-Fans, There's a new edition of Age of Sigmar coming and it's time to ride the lightning (so to speak), with the launch of the Soul War between Sigmar and Nagash. Nagash, the Undying King and God of Death, eager to assert the dominion of death over all things, has sent his Nighthaunt legions marching upon the free city of Glymmsforge, bastion of Azyr in the Realm of Death. Rushing to the embattled city's defence are the Stormcast Eternals of the Sacrosanct Chamber – Sigmar Heldenhammer's legion of architects, mages and priests, unleashed from their duties to prosecute a bloody war. And as dawn breaks on this literal life and death struggle... magic itself has changed forever...
