Alright, Blood Angels fans, get ready for some serious eye candy because the latest reveal for the sons of Sanguinius is nothing short of interesting. If you’ve been following the teasers, you know we’ve already seen the brooding, onyx-clad Death Company and the stunning red armor of the Sanguinary Priests and Captains. Now, it’s time for some dazzling gold to hit the battlefield – and wow, is it something…..
The Sanguinor: The Enigmatic Golden Savior
Let’s talk about the Sanguinor first, because this guy is the stuff of legends. Clad in shimmering gold armor and sporting a pair of angelic wings, the Sanguinor isn’t just a warrior – he’s a literal force of nature. This mysterious figure swoops down from the heavens at the most critical moments, delivering swift and brutal justice to the enemies of the Blood Angels. He’s a mystery wrapped in gold, with very little known about his true identity, but one thing’s for sure: when he shows up, it’s game over for the opposition.
The Blood Angels have been chronicling his appearances in the Carta Sanguinorum, a sacred text that’s been keeping track of his interventions. Some scholars have noticed an odd connection between the Sanguinor’s actions and those of Commander Dante – but so far, no one’s cracked the code on who or what the Sanguinor really is. There are a ton of theories out there, from him being a psychic manifestation of the Blood Angels’ will, to being the spirit of Azkaellon, preserved by the Emperor’s Grace. Whatever the truth, the Sanguinor is one epic mystery that continues to captivate the imaginations of Blood Angels fans.
Sanguinary Guard: The Elite Golden Warriors
But the Sanguinor isn’t the only golden warrior in town. The Sanguinary Guard, those legendary veterans who trace their lineage all the way back to the Great Crusade, are also joining the fray with some absolutely stunning new models. These guys are the best of the best, the elite warriors of the Blood Angels, and they look every bit the part with their gleaming (and somewhat chunky) gold armor and angelic death masks.
These new Sanguinary Guard models have had their ancient relic armor updated with the latest Tacticus Mark X armor, making them a blend of tradition and modernity. They’ve got jump packs to get them into the thick of battle, and they come armed with either elegant encarmine blades or the new encarmine spears. And yes, you can even equip one of them with a banner
