Tips & Tricks

Vanguard-Hunters are lightly armoured Assault troops better suited to ambushes than sustained engagements. Use this fast-moving unit to harass Ranged foes and to capture Victory Points and Arcane Conduits behind enemy lines.

  • The Hidden Paths ability lets you conceal Vanguard-Hunters and flank enemy units without detection.
  • Lean on Vanguard-Hunters for scouting enemy territory; the Stormcast Eternals have more effective Assault units for open combat.
  • The Astral Compass ability allows you to reveal a section of the map, making it a helpful scouting tool to assess enemy forces before beginning your assault.
