How do i stop a beast claw army with mornfang thundertask stonehorn and yetis

[Razorfate]

1-Do not let your opponent throw dice.

2- Threaten him not to use his thundertusks and stonehorn. 

3-Buy him a beer instead of a match and ask him politely that he conceeds.

4-Play your whole army as Stormcast or stormfiends and say that you are proxying cause you did not buy the models yet.

[Razorfate]

In more serious answer: 

1-You have to chaff stonehorn as he or yhetiis or mournfang can charge reliably in the first turn. Deploy a little at your backfield.

2-You have to attack thundertusks and concentrate your damage in order to kill one at a time. As thundertusks heal each other pretty effectively you have to hit until one is death. Use your flyers to catch the thundertusks.

3-Play to the objectives.

4-Blood knights are a good counter for motnfang cav as ogres do not have rend attacks

The Black Amulet doesn't state that it causes Mortal Wounds, so it might be a grey area that results in a rules argument you'd lose. I'd recommend not bothering with it.

I think tomb blade for healing the general is better. The thunder tusks will probably deal 18 mortal wounds with their shooting which you will save 1/3 of them with ruler of the night so you will be at 6 wounds. You will then drink from the chalice and will get 3-4 wounds back. 

Now you need to charge at one of the thundertusks and kill him. Next turn you will take 8 wounds from the remaining thundertusks if the god of average dice rolls bless you and your opponent.

Healing matters
