Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Who are the Forest Spirited Sylvaneth?

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Who are the Forest Spirited Sylvaneth?

Are you interested in mystical forest spirits, who are thirsting for bloody vengeance? Oh boy, are you in the right place! 

The faction Sylvaneth is willing to do anything to protect their forest friends and the natural life cycle in the Mortal Realms. 


Who is Sylvaneth in Warhammer Age of Sigmar?

The Sylvaneth are not made of blood and bone, like all other living creatures. But their make-up is dominated by wood and sap.

Living in the nature of the Mortal Realms in Warhammer Age of Sigmar, Sylvaneth have felt the pain of their kins destruction as well as having tasted bloodshed deep within their roots. Disruption to their domain is not permitted to Sylvaneth, with their water tainted with blood they feel they have no choice but to fight to survive. 

Alarielle the Everqueen, the Goddess of Life and the mother to the Sylvaneth is a loyal patron to the influential Sigmar.  Like the Sylvaneth, she is also avenging; horrified at the atrocities inflicted to the nature of the Mortal Realms. 

The newest release to the Sylvaneth faction in Warhammer Age of Sigmar is the Warsong Revenant.  These models have the power to play their Spirit Song and the land comes to life beneath their feet, releasing a swarm of spites towards their enemies. 

With Sylvaneth on the board, you are sure to reap the bonuses if you take the Awakened Wylwood terrain. However, your foes will incur negatives for being too close to the terrain, so your army can benefit inside and out! 

Want to learn more about the Sylvaneth and their place within the Mortal Realms? The Sylvaneth Battletome is your tool to discover the ins and outs of the nature-centred faction. Burying your head in the Battletome will enable you to understand the backstory, whilst comprehending the capabilities of your army.
