Wardens of the White Tower

Hailing from the magical kingdom of Saphery, the Swordmasters serve as protectors to the loremasters and mages of the White Tower. They fight with an unparalleled focus that blends mental acuity with lightning-fast reflex maneuvers. On the hobby side, they stand out as an exceptionally rewarding painting project thanks to their clean lines, flowing capes, and abundant opportunities for practicing gemstone effects.

Flawless Discipline The miniatures feature striking, disciplined poses that look incredible when lined up in classic rank-and-file formation.

Deployment in the High Elf Host

Within the Warhammer Old World system, Swordmasters are typically placed in the center of the battle line. They act as a specialized hammer unit meant to counter heavy enemy units, protecting your ranged units and magical support from aggressive brawlers.

  • Exceptional offensive capability that cuts through heavy armor with ease.
  • Includes full options to assemble a champion, standard bearer, and musician.
  • Classic rank-and-file aesthetic that defines the majestic look of an elven army.

Battlefield Performance

  • Heavy Frontline Infantry: Their greatswords provide high strength values, allowing them to pierce heavily armored infantry and cavalry efficiently.
  • Low-Initiative Monsters: They can strike and severely weaken giant beasts before the monster even gets a chance to unleash its attacks.
  • Tactical Matchup Summary: While devastating in melee combat, Swordmasters possess standard elven durability. Keep them safe from massed ranged fire and artillery bombardments using screens or protective spells until they successfully charge into close quarters.
