Mourngul as General

[Cagos]

Hi

Is it correct that I can tage my Mourngul as General with a command trait and the nspiring presence command abelity?

[Squirrelmaster]

At present, yes — any model can be your general. Note that some tournaments may rule otherwise, and it's rumoured that the second General's Handbook will rule against this in Matched play, when it comes out.

Thanks

Yes, you can give it Red Fury which is hilarious. It cannot take magic items though

Not going to lie but with the current General's Handbook I was always under the assumption only the units marked as "Leader" Could be pointed out as a General , Isn't the Mourngul a Behemoth?

[Solaris]

Yes, the Mourngul is a Behemoth. Your assumption is wrong, however - any model can be the general, it's not limited to Leaders.

Slightly OT but I prefer having any model be general, although often for narrative reasons. Like the mourngul leading in smaller games often makes sense to me as it's the most powerful thing in the force, like the nercro summons it they then have a short lived stare down which ends in a smushed necro and a mourngul in charge as much as raging around the battlefield is in charge anyway.

 

also find it fits with other factions like fyreslayer Karl probably has more leadership skills and purpose than a grymwrath bezerker.

Then again, taking a Mourngul in smaller games to begin with is kind of questionable behavior.

Indeed I more feel that if you were running one it fits well into the general role than a weedy necromancer more than promoting cheese balls lists.
