Games Workshop Make Waves with the New Idoneth Deepkin

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water…

Games Workshop have revealed their next, ahem, wave of Idoneth Deepkin, and these aelves of the high-seas are ready to make waves. Led by the new Ikon of the Sea, they specialise in surging attacks, gaining buffs when charging the enemy.

A dynamic scene features an Idoneth Deepkin warrior, the Ikon of the Sea, poised on a wave of water, wielding a curved sword and adorned with intricate armor and a decorative headdress. In the background, remnants of a shipwreck are visible, with splashes of water and a menacing sea creature emerging from the waves. The overall color palette includes vibrant blues and earthy tones, enhancing the aquatic theme of the model.

The Deepkin are further bolstered by the reckless fury of the Ikon of the Storm. A stranger to calm and serenity, this tempestuous warrior summons whirling currents which entrap opponents whilst allowing he and his compatriots to move in and out of combat at will.

A dynamic miniature of a warrior from the Idoneth Deepkin, poised mid-action atop a swirling wave of water. The figure is adorned in intricate blue armor with a horned helmet, wielding a curved sword in one hand and a spear in the other. In the foreground, two sea serpents emerge from the wave, their heads raised, adding to the sense of movement and energy in the scene, set against a backdrop of dark, stormy skies and ancient stone architecture.

As if these two weren’t enough of a handful, they’re also supported by the new Akhelian Tide Guard.

A dynamic scene showcases a variety of Idoneth Deepkin models, featuring a central figure, the Ikon of the Sea, with a flowing white banner and intricate armor, surrounded by other aelves in vibrant blue and orange hues. Several mounted warriors ride sleek sea creatures, while others stand poised with weapons, all set against a textured, rocky underwater backdrop with a greenish hue. The composition highlights the diverse range of new models, including the Akhelian Tide Guard and Namarti Reavers, emphasizing their aquatic theme and battle-ready stance.

This new set includes an Akhelian King and an entourage of not only 10 Namarti Reavers and three Akhelian Morrsarr Guard, but also three Akhelian Ishlaen Guard

All of these new models are examined in depth in the new Battletome: Idoneth Deepkin.
