The Soulblight faction can choose the Swift Death bloodline that gives additional movement to all units and this little bonus...
"In addition, Swift Death models can always move as if they can fly."
How does this interact with things that prohibit flying, such as the Skaven vortex spell?
There are two different aspects to this question.
1) Blood Knights and Vampire Lords on foot and on nightmares do not have the FLY keyword on their warscrolls, and the Swift Death bloodline does not give that keyword. As such they never actually fly, they only ever move as though they were flying.
2) All other Soulblight units have the FLY keyword native on their warscrolls. These are all actually flying when they move and follow all the normal rules for fliers.
Does the "always" part of the Swift Death ability trump any attempts to stop any Swift Death models from flying? Or would it be only Blood Knights and Vampire Lords without FLY? Or are they all stopped from "flying", even the ones who never actually were flying?
