Games Workshop Previews Spiterider Lancers for Age of Sigmar

The Sylvaneth warriors are getting some reinforcements soon in Age of Sigmar. And they’re coming in quick. They’re the Spiterider Lancers and you can get a look at these fast fliers in this preview.

From the article:

We can hear a humming in the air – the Everqueen’s Rite of Life echoes all around the Mortal Realms, a powerful song that heralds the approach of new Sylvaneth warriors. The wargroves are uprooting and expanding their territory as Alarielle becomes less and less concerned with the plight of her erstwhile allies.

Above the stomping Treelords and cruel Dryads fly the Spiterider Lancers. These elite warriors charge into battle on the backs of dragonspites, ancient insectoid beings which once drank deep from the sap of the Oak of Ages in the World-that-Was. The Everqueen’s song has roused these beasts from their amber prisons, and now they accompany her forces as vicious mounts.

Rushing ahead of the main Sylvaneth forces, these mighty shock cavalry attack with blinding speed upon blurred wings. The Descent of the Spiteriders is impressive to behold – tearing across the tabletop and pulverising weak opponents before they can strike back.
