Allegaince Death stacking ward saves?

[Krikke]

Right, acording to the AOS FAQ you can stack ability

I'f i'm understanding this correctly then would a ghoul king on terrrorghiest having the Deathles minions + ruler of the night AND using Unholy vitality + having a wight king bsb next to him get to take the following

Armor save , +5 save ,+5 save, +6 save (if he's on his final wound)....... i have a feeling i'm getting this wrong, but when reading the recent rules FAQ well, what do you guys think, i'm not about to actually use this but just curious.

 

Page 6 of the AOS FAQ

Q: Is it possible to stack a chaos warshrine's protection of the dark gods ability and a harbringer of decay morbid vigor command ability to grant a mortal nurgle unit two separate dice roll attempts to ignore wounds and mortal wounds - meaning that such a unit effectively have three saves against a normal attack (one save from their Armour , plus the two additional saves from abilities

A: Yes

It's all separate abilities, so you get them. Unless any specific wording in the abilities indicates otherwise (don't have rules to hand)

That is insane and would make him unlikable or another unit depending on your needs, combine this with the power of bringing back models that FE courts have.....

That's not unkillable - against mortal wounds it's just two 5+ Wards, good certainly. You're investing a lot into buffing him that much - already a 400 point model and sacrificing offence to do so.

Stack defensive buffs is alot weaker than stacking offensive ones. 

 

Vamp Lord Commander + necromancer dance can quadruple some units damage out put. 

 

So getting to tanky is abit of a w waste IMHO.

The other thing people seem to forget is that if you have stuff doling out defensive buffs onto something else.. it's not defending itself. This case not quite as most are inherent abilities.

I noticed that about the necro + vampire , the Ghoul king on Foot can also give another +1 A

You can indeed go crazy with this , as for example 30-40 Ghouls could get a bunch of attacks and both a rerol to hit and wound

There is tons of craziness, so figured that 5+ two times would be to good, but considering the above that feels kinda ok now :-)

Thanks for the answer guys!
