I find it odd that we have no other ways of interacting with this rule (or Endless Legions for that matter). I would have thought a Wight King could have a CA that "you pick a unit of skellies, they roll 4+ for all their dead models to reanimate" or something like that. Would have fit nicely and basically makes them a Necron Overlord with a resurrection orb.
That would make them worth taking over Vampires.
Or simply improve the Reanimation Roll of skellies by 1 as aura.
the mounted one could simply add +1 damage to black knights in the same manner as a Warchanter works for orruks.

100% fair. I think skeletons are better than most people give them credit for, but they are by no means an auto include. Especially against shooting lists, where their benefits don't come into play.
I came to the same conclusion

3ed Launch Box name: Dominion
New Faction Name: Krul Boyz
Name of one unit: Hobgobs
Hobgobs are crafters of Metal stuff. They trade with chaos dwarves.
Leader: Big Boss-esque dude riding a messed up Squiq-Pig-Wolf-Thing
Also: Some kind of Gnorblar stirring a pot -

It was a disaster tbh.
I playes Fyreslayer and had basically Vordrai, mannfred and 5 blood knights charge a unit of 20 HG and had the mannfred CA turned on. Still failed to kill enough and in return he did to much damage. I eventually won the fight but I had over 1000p stuck in 400p HG
Sure, not the best test since Fyreslayer are hard for this list but still. Low model count is always a big problemIn my experience you will need at least one block of Zombies or Skeletons to soak up the damage and hold the enemy in place. Then you can make your more elite units shine.

What do you guys think about using a soulscream bridge in the army?
Most of the chaff units are pretty slow to move, could the spell make it not that bad perhaps? Getting +1 from corpsecart and +2 for a legion of night artefact grants us a pretty reliable cast chance.
It‘s a valid tactic and I like it

Living Tikki Masks sound awesome, let's do it.
I think so too
-
Judging by the rumours so far the new Destruction faction’s heads either consist of Living Tikki Masks or the army has at least a unit with those masks as heads.

About that manfred list i think you can put into some vargheist insted of dire wolfs and 20 grave guard. With manfred vargheist deep strike is very interesting, opponent have to say something to them, until BK can move around dealing some damage.
Yes! I'll add another list based on Vargheists as well

Some Midnight Legion of Night list-brewing with Mannfred von Carstein:
QuoteWighty might with his mighty Wight Blade
°Mannfred - 380
°Wight King on Skeletonsteed - 130
-Unholy Impetuous (+1 A w whithin 18" if he kills a model)
°Necromancer
- The claw that grants +2 to casting
°2x20 Grave Guard with Great Weapons - 560
°1x Dire Wolves - 135
°2x5 Blood Knights - 390
°20x Deathrattle Skeletons - 170
°Corpse Cart with Balefire (-1 to wound bubble)
1970 points
______
The enemy has to manage Grave Guards and Blood Knights who are all portentially buffed up by the Wight Kings Artefact, while Mannfred can buff as well and the Corpse Cart makes sure one or two units of the Grave Guards are harder to kill
More to come! (Vargheist and Terrorgheist builds, Deathrattle Build, Wolf Build)
Changing topics:
I just realized that Lauka Vai looks so much more coherent without her hip armor!

I am grrowing to like the model I guess- 8

Just as a general question:
Can we expect the Cursed City models to receive individual point costs?

While the pictures can’t be posted here, I would love a DM of them!
same!

Well LoN is no longer playable since all units have the Soulblight Gravelords keyword and no longer the Legions of Nagash keyword.
So you can try to play LoN with no units available that is ^^ -

@Neil Arthur Hotep Yes, that’s annoying
My gaming group decided to use these point values for the CC gang (I worked them out yesterday)
Vargskyr : Varghulf Points (same stats) 160
Torgilius: almost Necromancer points 125
Gorslav: almost Wight king Points 115
Radukar: Vampire Lord +20, pts 160
Vyrkos Bloodborn: 115 points seems plausible
Korsagi Night Guard: cost as much as 2 Ogor Gluttons, 80 points
Halgrim: Wight King 115 points
Combined: 755 (+ 115) points
does anybody have any input on the point values?

Would it really have been so bad to make these abilities not locked to Vampires only?
That would have required some effort.
I was also disappointed, that the Lords with a faction keyword won‘t benefit from a different legion (it was to be expected though)

I actually could sorta see Black knights in Vyrkos. Deathrattle gets +1 to wound near Vyrkos heroes, so this plus MW on charge may be usefull - not really powerfull but acceptable perhaps?
For 80/90 points, perhaps.
@Neil Arthur Hotep the Vyrkos +1 to wound can only be granted by Vampires. Wight Kings simply have no role 🤣 if they were dirt cheap, then maybe

The lack of definite communication suggests that they're just stalling for time in the hope they can resolve the problems and get back on track.
Tbh, I think this is the case. Bone of any other reasons I‘be read seems plausible to me.

perennial product
They claimed two things: „Cursed City, like any other Warhammer Quest will be around for a while“
and
“Cursed City will be a Perfect start for a Soulblight Gravelords Army“
both claims have later been edited out of their WarCom posts, a practice they really like to use to make things seem like there was never anything wrong claimed.

For anyone wanting to play the CC Models as seperate units:
Vargskyr : Varghulf Points (same stats) 160
Torgilius: almost Necromancer points 125
Gorslav: almost Wight king Points 115
Radukar: Vampire Lord +20, pts 160
Vyrkos Bloodborn: 115 points seems plausible
Korsagi Night Guard: cost as much as 2 Ogor Gluttons, 80 points
Combined: 755 points
Edit: Oops, I forgot halgrim
Halgrim: Wight King 115 points

What does role does he play in your lists?
Provides GG as Battleline and spreads the Feel no Pain and healing while being durable and able to run down small support heroes

One big question remains though:
Who‘s been killing all these wolves for all those millennia? (WHF up until now)?
it must be some Dark Entety REALLY hating wolves. Cat-God-Monster confirmed?
Or were all these wolves once ridden by Goblins (who obviously die, because that’s what Goblins do xD)?

Guessing:
Radukar: either 45€ or 60€ (Hard to guess)
Belladama: 32,50€
Dire Wolves: 45€
CC models: 60€
single Vamps: 25€
