Cities of Sigmar - Amethyst Knellmage

Warhammer Age of Sigmar – Cities of Sigmar: Amethyst Knellmage – 86-13

The Amethyst Knellmage is a sinister battlemage from the Collegiate Arcane, specializing in the cold magic of Shyish. Where other mages bring fire, light, or metal to the battlefield, this solitary sorcerer carries the aura of death knells, whispering spirits, and purple witchlight.

The bell tolls for the enemy

Amethyst Knellmages use death magic to undermine the strength and resolve of their opponents. Their presence feels ominous: a mage who seeks not only to inflict damage but to disrupt enemy plans and drain morale from a line.

On the battlefield, the Knellmage is a strong addition for Cities of Sigmar armies looking to support their reliable infantry and command structure with dark arcane control.

Shyishan magic on the frontline

This wizard is not just a vulnerable spellcaster behind the lines. The Amethyst Knellmage wields an imposing Amethyst Scythe, capable of felling enemies who come too close. This makes them particularly suitable for players seeking a magical model that also visually belongs among the front ranks of a Cities of Sigmar force.

Their magic revolves around weakening, disrupting, and pressuring the enemy. This makes them work well alongside Steelhelms, Gallants, and other units that want to hold objectives while the opponent struggles to effectively strike back.

Ominous and characterful model

The model wears a striking bell-shaped tollhelm, which can be built with the front open or closed. This gives you the choice between a more mysterious, enclosed look or a model where more of the face and character remains visible.

The small number of parts makes this a straightforward build, but the end result has a lot of atmosphere: a mage immediately recognizable as a wielder of death magic within the Cities of Sigmar.

Painting opportunities with deathlight and metal

For painters, the Amethyst Knellmage offers plenty of scope for purple, grey, and icy color schemes. Think of glowing amethyst magic around the scythe, pale skin tones, weathered metal, cold candlelight, and subtle object source lighting around the Reikenorian candle or tollhelm.

He fits beautifully into an army with a Lethis, Shyish, or Morrda theme, but can also contrast within a colorful Free City as a dark specialist among regular soldiers.
