Hi all,

 

what do you think. is it possible to run a rather elite SBGL army? Which models / units should I consider then? Is any kind of summoning mandatory?

 

Thanks in advance!

Gravelords armies can be anywhere on the spectrum from literally 4 models to easily 100+ full horde.

That said, part of what is good about Gravelords is their access to really good, cheap bodies in Skeletons, Zombies and Direwolves. Even if you go with mainly elite units like Blood Knights or for Avengorii monster spam, those lists are often improved by the inclusion of a big blob of Zombies.

I would consider anything below 30 models elite. Here's a quick, basic Kastelai list that gets there:

Spoiler

Allegiance: Soulblight Gravelords
- Lineage: Kastelai Dynasty
- Grand Strategy:
- Triumphs:

Leaders
Mannfred von Carstein, Mortarch of Night (380)
Prince Vhordrai (455)
Vengorian Lord (280)
- General
- Command Trait: Rousing Commander
- Artefact: Fragment of the Keep

Battleline
5 x Blood Knights (195)
5 x Blood Knights (195)
5 x Blood Knights (195)
10 x Dire Wolves (135)
10 x Dire Wolves (135)

Total: 1970 / 2000

This list only uses Blood Knights and Direwolves, but you can also slap some Vargheists in there if you wanted. Or include some of the Cursed City models if you are willing to hunt them down on eBay.
