Natrapx Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Greetings fellow denizens of Shyish! Me and my friend have been throwing around ideas for a doubles Death army ??(no actual event in mind as of yet, although looking at the Warhammer world battle brothers next year) and we have come up with the following list/lists. Can we get some feedback on them please? ? We don't want to go mega hard, or looking to do a WAAC type list, just somthing that is mildly competitive, but fun to play with. My half is themed around Mousillon. The general idea being that the necromancer, in service of Arkhan, has raised up an ancient crypt deep in Shyish. The wight king will be themed as a Brettonian Lord, and the Tomb Banshee either a Lady or Damsel. I've attached a pic of my first 10 skeletons, aiming to get everything in that sort of theme. (sorry for the awful quality!) My half: Necromancer - 120 Wight King - 120 Tomb Banshee - 80 Skeletons x 20 - 160 Skeletons x 20 - 160 Black Knights x 10 - 240 Spirit Hosts x 3 - 120 1000 points Friends Half: Arkhan 20 Skeletons 20 Skeletons 5 Hexwraiths Mortis Engine 1000 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see a Mournghoul in it if it was a higher point game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natrapx Posted December 5, 2016 Author Share Posted December 5, 2016 Thanks! I've looked at the rules for the Mournghoul, looks like a beast! The story was the important part for me, i've always needed a theme to tie the army together, otherwise whats the point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerrorPenguin Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 How does the list building work? Because if you only need to take three battleline between you I'd recommend going for larger units of Skeletons as they generally tend to be better in larger numbers. Would also say you'll get more benefit from the wight king as the general as his ability is more useful in this list than Arkhans although less fluffy - maybe the wight king is on work experience having a go at being general?!? Also with Arkhans mega summoning you might want to hold some skellies or the banshee in reserves depending on the objectives. I do love the fluff of summoning, but it might be a great way to drop models near an objective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
