TerrorPenguin Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Is anyone using Heinrich Kemmler regularly in their lists? He seems pretty decent - 2 spells and his own aoe heal - positioning japes with cloak of mist and shadows and an amazing ward save if he is near a bunch of skeletons or zombies. I suppose the only thing is that you take him in place of a necromancer and so don't get VHDM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countmoore Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I've used him a lot and only dropped him from my list to fit in a tomb herald for guaranteed extra 5 would on my punchy big guy. Now that TH has been nerfed in the latest FAQ I can see him making a come back. The teleport is solid and happens at the start of the hero phase so he can get into casting or out of unbinding range with ease. Can also be used to extract himself from combat if needed. He is also not too shoddy in combat though not exactly a monster. I tend to use him primarily as a support caster healing and a mystic shield to free up the more offensive spells on the the bigger guys (Vamp on ZD for example) who are more likely to be in range. He also tends to be very survivable with his rule to pass wounds off on a 2+ to friendly death models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Tempted to try him, but y'know, Compendium rules and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countmoore Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 At least as a model you can demote him to necromancer when/if compendium stuff comes to an end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sej Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 I use him alot, dont forget his tomb blade can add extra skeletons or zombies to existing units. Its only a little bonus but it helps keep the big block of skeletons or zombies he passing wounds too alive for longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Lyons Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 I've included him in a number of otherwise pure TK lists. He's solid for his points and TK offers a number of models for him to heal with his spell as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would encourage you to check out @Mengel Miniatures's TK project here. There is a unofficial battle tome coming in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
