Because if they do, that's a pretty big finger to players with rend heavy armors Well they may just have a 6+ save, they dont look heavily armored.

Sharrankar Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I meant the 5+ more like "hard to hit hence the save stuff" - Hosts have a 4+ save after all, and they have absolutely no armor lol But a blob of 20 4+ unrendable guys would be too tough to reliably take down, and considering they will be coming in blobs of 20 in the box, they should be pretty cheap, point-wise at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect they'll probably be 1 wound, 5+ ethereal, with a middling attack but the same Frightful Touch ability of the current Nighthaunt army - which would make for a frustratingly solid objective-camping unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWilddog Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I know its super early but how do you guys think these new additions impact our existing units? With the new spirt looking battleline will Spirit Hosts now be a more elite choice? Also, I wonder where this will leave the Mourngul? If they rework the Black Coach's warscroll into something good could it replace big ugly as our mini monster? So many possibilities, I am looking forward to the next few months.

I don't know, since we've only seen two of them(I think) and that they have swords and non scythes, they may not be the new Hexwraiths people(me included) are guessing and perhaps we could start seeing cavalry in Shadespire. All the stuff that GW is showing as part of the new Nighthaunt stuff on the community site is based with the "standard" GW basing both in the communnity site "press photos" and the ones in the cases. These horses and the covered face ghost banshee things with smilar detailed bases aren't featured as part of the new stuff on the GW community site, not do they show up in second edition battlescape photo. So I think they're either for Shadespire or something else(Mordhiem like game, they don't seem to care about skimish game oversaturation at this point). Though they were in the video, but that could just be all the Nighthaunt stuff(maybe they'll actually have shadespire warbands in the codex?). I'm not totally convinced that any existing stuff other than the black coach is getting a new model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahn-ket Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 @bsharitt This one's are clearly Cairn Wraith so existing stuff witch get new models but you could be right that all models with roses on the bases could be part of something else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a situation where the Putrid Blightkings were model-wise basically the Lord of Plagues expanded to a full unit(but still a separate thing in the game). The Cairnewraith was also reboxed four months ago, seems like a lot of effort of they are going to replace him(but the Tomb Banshee wasn't, hmm...). He might might get a new warscroll so he actually helps these guys. It'd be great to have Nighthaunt heroes that actually buff other units.

After the changes with the emergent Vampire Counts I just reused them as Cairne Wraiths. After twenty years breaking them out again as a single unit would be nice.
