Warhammer is an incredibly popular science fantasy tabletop franchise. The game involves building an army of miniature characters. And the game enjoys a massive fan following throughout the world including the Man Of Steel star Henry Cavill. And recently during a promotional event, Cavill got all excited after a question involving Warhammer 40k characters popped from the crowd.

The Geralt of Rivia star’s eyes lit up and he quickly started talking about Warhammer characters. The interviewer asked Cavill about the Warhammer army Sherlock would play. Cavill quickly replied, “Custodies because its a low body count and it really requires finesse. You’ve got to use each piece carefully.”
