Mounts and Vehicles
Warrior Priests can go to battle mounted on a Warhorse or on a platform in an War Altar of Sigmar.[1a][1b][1c][1d]

There are some within the cities of Ghyran, notably Hammerhal Ghyra who maintain their faith in Alarielle or one of her aspects while taking on all other trappings of the Warrior Priesthood of the Sigmarite faith.[3a]
Wargear
Warrior Priests are clad in ceremonial vestments and armored adorned with religious icons of the Sigmarite faith. They have a wide range of equipment like a Sigmarite Greathammer, a pair of Sigmarite Warhammers, or a Sigmarite Warhammer paired with a Sigmarite Shield. [1a][1b][1c][1d][2b]

Arch Lectors are senior Warrior Priests that ride on the platform at the fore of the War Altars of Sigmar.
