Use what you want but remember that it shouldn't effect the battlefield more than the rules LoG has. So even if you use something big you should measure from the middle of it anyway. I think they're referring to the Signature Mausoleum warscroll, which allows LoN to use it as an additional gravesite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The warscroll doesn't say that they are additional gravesites. Only that the Mausoleum interacts as a Graveside when using the "unquiet minions" Battle Trait. For all other reasons it isn't a Gravesite. 30 minutes ago, AHexInScarletRed said: I can't find this Warscroll - I know that it's legit and stuff, but where do I get the rules from? The Warscroll was in the Generals Handbook 2018. Other ways to get it should be either the App like @XReN said or the in GWs Webshop should be a point "rules" when you go to the article, next to the articles description. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uvatha Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) Hello all, Any feedback is welcome about the Legion of Grief army list below The main idea is to use several bravery debuff (natural ones and spells casted by Reikenor) with the Tomb Banshees and Crypt Flayers screams to inflict mortal wounds. Here below I tried to figure out how to deploy the army and made some statistics about how many MW in average could be inflicted, depending on how many of the bravery debuff apply to the target(s). I took an initial bravery of 8 as an average (like SC, not as good as Death, not as bad as Skaven ^^). Like in other armies, the wolves in pack of 10 should run to objectives. There is no really 'hammer' unit except the 40 Skeleton which also actually play as anvil because they can be healed by gravesites and necro, as well as buffed with a Dance Macabre. If these Skeletons got destroyed they can be called back for 1 CP. If a VIP target get in range then the Skeletons can also be flown over by bigger guys (Morghast & Crypt Flayers) and actually the Morghasts can already hit at 2" through them. Some aspects I am not sure about: Is a Necro a solid general with 5 Wounds and 6+ save only? (can't take Reikenor since then he doesn't get the command trait -2 Bravery). How to boost the Skeleton move (4)? Or is it enough to slowly crawl towards opponent's army as a wall, until the bravery MW dealers get in range? Where to locate the gravesites around the army?

LoG isn't part of the other LoN, so i guess we dont have allies. "Q: Is the Legion of Grief considered to be a Legion of Nagash? For example, can the Locus of Shyish ability be used for the Legion of Grief spell lores, or could a Necromancer take a spell from the Lore of the Deathmages? A: No to all questions." I would use a dreadblade harrow as general due to his mobility for summoning destroyed units and a teleport with that sweet - 2 bravery And i dont know about 2 endless spells with only 2 mages, could be hard to get them going properly.

Thank you for the feedback! Ah actually the Crypt Flayers are Mercenaries so it should be ok? Good idea for the Dreadblade, probably more resistant and mobile, thank you!

Good idea for the Dreadblade, probably more resistant and mobile, thank you! What if you swap one of the Morghast units for a Mortis Engine? +1 to cast to get the spells off easier, another bravery attack (less damage but AOE), and a once per game AOE heal\DMG if needed. Also, any reason to run the Flayers as 2x3 instead of 1x6? Single activation vs multiple might save you a bit of damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauzy Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Hello, I don't know if we can play the GOS with Mortality Glass in the legion of grief. It's write Nighthaunt but it's for the Keyword Nighthaunt or about the army ? The Gos with MS doesn't appearin the pitched battle profil of Nighthaunt but as the keyword ? So am I refer only to the keyword or to the nighaunt army ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's absolutely no reason why you can't use it in a friendly or at an event with the TO's consent. And I do think this is super frustrating for a model less than a year old too! 17 hours ago, Dauzy said: So am I refer only to the keyword or to the nighaunt army ?

Always the keyword for anything like this. Not to belabor the point but this is something I'm actually hoping you or someone else here could provide some insight on. The chain of events around rulings on this has me confused. Firstly in the general handbook 2019 itself it has a section of rules (pg. 58 I think??) that effectively rules out models without points in this book or newer publications. However it does as you say provide a stipulation that you can ask an opponent permission to have the model allowed. Easy enough. However once the errata released in the designer commentary. There is a question asking exactly the same question. "Can models without points in the ghb or ghb errata (note the absence of later publications as well) be used in matched play. To which the faq responds with a singular and confusing word. "No." Could anyone shed some light on this. Does the designer commentary overrule the ghb itself? As the simple "No" appears to remove our ability to ask permission to use the model. Thanks guys. Edited July 12, 2019 by Cr1m50n 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm, after only one variant of the GoS has a pitched Battle profile, is there something holding you back of using the model with mortality glass as model with lantern?

I'd not have a problem with it (nor would the people I regularly play against) but the WYSIWYG crew would have my life. Doubt I'd get it past a TO either.

RuneBrush Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 @Cr1m50n, pretty much @lare2 has hit the nail on the head. If you're attending an event that has stated your army list needs to be "Matched Play" from the current (2019) generals handbook, then you're not going to be able to use your Mortality Glass as it has no points. If the event is running WYSIWYG then your TO may be kind and allow you to run them as counts as "Guardian of Souls with Nightmare Lanter", but I'd not put money on it - if it's not WYSIWYG then still check, but you should be fine to use the model with the Nightmare Lantern warscroll. @EMMachine is completely right though - if I'm playing a matched play game round the club, I'll likely go "you guys happy for me to run my limited ed GoS?" One other point (and I find this confusing as anything). The Errata document is official changes to publications. The Designers Commentary is frequently asked questions - so clarifications on how rules should play rather than modifications to them. That's why it's a single "no" - basically reinforcing the rule in the Generals Handbook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heijoshin Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I've seen a few lists for LoG being used with 2 units of 12 Mymourm Banshees being used. Does the spell eater ability increase their attack by 1 in total, or one for each model in the unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qrow Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Just now, Heijoshin said: Gotcha, thanks! In general, is the Mymourm pick to predictively counter some kind of magic meta that people are anticipating, or just because of the points changes that were made? LoG opened up the floor to the rest of the nighthaunt roster to LoN, with the ability to resurrect entire units it become way less of a risk to run expensive but flimsy units. Another key point as that all these lists include a lot of endless spells, part of the plan is to use the myrmourns to dispell your own endless spells then bring back the casualties of those dispells with the gravemarkers. So while a lot of lists will include at least one spellcaster for the myrmouns, it is more self dependent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
