death's_accopmplice Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Hi all new here and just looking for some advice. I used to collect warhammer and 40k when I was 9-13 ish but never played properly, just painted some models to a fairly poor standard and hardly played at all. I've had a read of a lot of the threads on here so feel like I'm catching up with whats changed since I stopped - a lot! Anyway, I'm looking at a death army, just general death for now until there's more battletomes. I currently have the following: - 1 x Necrach on nightmare (old metal figure with hood and dagger) - 1x Necrach (old metal figure with hood and dagger) - 20x skeletons with spears and shields - 20x skeletons with swords (and other close combat weapons, maces etc. but count as swords) and shields - 3x dire wolves (to be added to if they are to be used obviously - just standard goblin wolf mounts) - 8x empire knights to be converted to blood knights I was thinking of removing the daggers on the necrachs and replacing them with staffs to fit the warscroll for a necromancer so essentially I have 2 necromancers. My main question is where to go next? I'm thinking start collecting! Death skeleton horde and deathrattle barrowlands box - would this give me a solid starting point for an army?

Toddy Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 The barrowlords box would certainly allow you flesh-out (as it were) the rest of your Deathrattle options. Other than that, it really depends what direction you want to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death's_accopmplice Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 We'll I'm kind of waiting to see what happens with the rest of death before I make a solid decision - would there be advantages of using a general death list over a specific faction within death? Other than obviously the amount of option that you would have access to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddy Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Currently, only FEC, Soulblight and Nighthaunt have get their own allegiance abilities etc (courtesy of GB 2017). The only competitive edge in exclusively using any of the other subfactions is really that you get more options for your Battleline units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
