To build on Honk's point I think Arkhan is the best fit for a mortarch with Nagash. His command ability can be really great to extend the range of spells, just watch out with him. He is super easy to kill

Not tried the first cohort, but honestly I am not too tempted to either. If i did I think it would change it up a little. Nagash Necro 2x Archai 2x 40 Skellies 1x 10 Skellies First Cohort Spell Portal 1990 Gives you more board control and Nagash does not need 4 morghast to make a deathball. He is a death ball already! Ill give my new list a try with the Grimghast which look like they will be pretty sweet. going to do a few weeks of list tinkering before my next event, then get a few weeks of "no changes to the list" practice.

Played it last night against an objectively super competitive Daughters of Khaine list and player. Felt pretty good, however a few serious misplays by me in hindsight cost me the game. Also this DoK list puts out a serious number of attacks, I cant even imagine what it would have done to me without Neferatas Command ability giving them minus 1 to hit. Had minus 2 on morathi but she was still just chewing through me! However I have decided to paint up my Nagash: Nagash, Necro, VL (Flying) 30 Grimghasts 40 Skellies 10 Chainrasps 2x5 Dire Wolves Spell Portal

I am assuming it stands for Vanhel's Danse Macabre, a necromancers warscroll spell which makes a summonable unit able to pile in and attack twice in your next combat phase. I agree. I have gone off the list to be honest. It was a bit of a Eureka moment followed by the relisation as I played it out in my head that 400 points is a lot to spend on making Nagash immune to rend. Nefferata isn't up to much without her command ability. Looking at this list now and will try it out tonight. Grand Host of Nagash: VLoZD (General, Lord of Nagashazzir, Etheral Amulet, Vile Transferance) Neferata (Overwhelming Dread) Necromancer (Fadind Vigor) VL ((Flying, Amaranthine Orb) too much fun on a 9+ cast) 40x Skellies (Spears) 30x Chainrasps 5x Dire Wolves 2x Morghast Harbingers (Spirit Halbreds) Then im not sure if i want to use cogs or another unit of Dogs for 1950... I will decide on the drive home.

Great event! Got a great laugh by winning a bar of Fine Orkney Soap for helping clean up Kev's filthy list! A big thank you again Stu for organising a fantastic event!

Dreamed up this list today. Bit concerned with how many points are spent on heroes but it just seems pretty tasty. Nagash Neferata Necromancer 40x Skellies 30x Chainrasp Horde 5x Dire Wolves Spell Portal 1950 points Idea is to make Nagash immune to rend and if it doesnt look like the skellies are going to be removed in the game use the extra command point on Neferata's command ability to make the ultimate attrition force, which definatley packs a punch! Also there's an option to drop the 30 chainrasps and the spell portal and swap in 40 more skeletons and take shackles for 1950 points again. or Drop the chainrasps to 20 take and extra unit of Dire Wolves and take the shackles. Interested to hear your thoughts.

Okay well that's fair enough. To be fair in my original post I used the term "to add weight to Runebrush's take", not that it was a matter of fact. I have found that it is largely accurate. Given that it doesn't allow you to choose a spell lore for the GoS in LoN, and I have seen this question asked a number of times on the forums, i think it is worth pointing out. My point is it is not something to make "rules statements" on... I agree with you, however it is an observation that I thought was interesting and helps paint a picture. i.e x,y,z leads us to think this, while a,b,c, makes us think the opposite. I would be surprised if the warscroll builder is not also proofed by their team, even if it is largely user created. I wouldn't dismiss it so easily.

In that case my mistake. I have miss read it. If that is the case then i guess RAW you can pick either option, however I do think that the warscroll builder's omission clearly shows RAI. Which to be fair we are not playing too as matched play gamers. FAQ me please GW

To add weight to Runebrush's take on the matter when you select the GoS in the warscroll builder from the units from the Legions of Nagash list you do not get the choice of a spell. When you pick him from the Nighthaunt list then he is able to pick from the Lore of the Underworlds. I also don't agree with the viewpoint that from a RAW perspective that the GoS would be able to pick from a lore in the first place. Sure it states that all Wizards are able to generate a spell from the Lore of the Dead as per their allegiance ability. However I see the second paragraph as condition two. As the GoS is not a Deathmage, Vampire or Deathlord wizard then there is no lore to choose from, despite having the right to a spell. To clarify I can't see how you can take the RAW viewpoint on paragraph one (detailing that Wizards get to take an additional spell) and disregard the second one (ignoring the keywords). Agreed this needs clarified by GW and I am sure that they will with the next FAQ.

struck me as odd, but that might just be because you are being clever and I generally am not ?

Can you use Nighthaunt battalions in a Legions of Sacrament list? Are they not limited to Nighthaunt allegience? If so I had no idea and I will be looking them up ?

That makes a lot of sense. I am building some lists atm with Nagash, a Necromancer and a Flying Vampire Lord and 40 Skeletons and The Spell portal. What I cant decide is whether or not to use 2 or 4 morghasts harbringers. 4 limits me to 2 units of dire wolves to fill out the battleline and leave me with at 1950 for the command point. 2 lets me take 20 chainrasps and 3 units of wolves, or 40 chainrasps and 1 unit of wolves. Is 2 a big enough reliable hammer. I am short on cash atm and I dont want to buy it all to experiment. Any advice for a scrub? Cheers,

Whats your thoughts on this list guys? Is it overkill running the VLoZD and 4x Harbringers? Arkhan the Black, Overwhelming Dread VLoZD Lance, Sheild and Chalice, Vile Transference (Wristbands of Black Gold) Vampire Lord (Flying), Amaranthine Orb Necromancer, Fading Vigor 40x Skeletons (Spears) 20x Chainrasp Horde 5x Dire Wolves 4x Morghast Harbringers with Halbards 1950 points I have a variation on this list which uses a Guardian of Souls in place of the Vampire Lord, and bumps the chainrasps up to 40, and drops the Harbingers for 30 Grimghasp Reapers. Lots more bodies but not sure if the reapers will pack as much of a punch. Much more resilient list in theroy however. Happy to hear your thoughts

absolutely love these guys. really really well done!

I'm finally starting my death army and building Legions of Sacrament using some of the new Nighthaunts. Played exclusively SCE previously so looking for hordes and heavy magic for a polar opposite to my previous play style. A few of my friends are starting the gaming side of AoS having being purely hobbyists previously. We are aiming for 1250 points with 2 battleline requirements for our first gaming day. I'm planning to go with: Arkhan the Black Necromancer Guardian of Souls 20x Skeletons with Spears 20x Chainrasp Hordes 5x Dire Wolves 2x Morghast Harbringers with Halberds 80 points on endless spells (not sure which yet) I have a couple of questions though Has there been any clarification on which spell lore the Guardian of Souls can pick from in a legions of Nagash list? How should I spend my 80 points in the list. Endless Spells for the 80 points... if so any recommendations, or CP and 30 points in spells Cheers guys

Really awesome. Thanks for taking the time to make these and share! ?

Cheers again!

Thank you so much for this. I'll probably go for this now. Much appreciated!

@Kugane I know its a much older post, but oh my! Your Iron Horde is fantastic! I am tempted / terrified to give it a try. Any tips? to make this less daunting to a new painter?
