Do we know what specific keywords we can give our custom Aelf characters with the custom builder ?
Daughters of Khaine, Idoneth Deepkin, Lumineth Realm Lords, Cities of Sigmar
You can also give them either a command ability or make them a PRIEST or WIZARD for free
Also MONSTER if you give them a gargantuan beast

Ok, I see yall are wearing your face masks. 😂
Mod edit - please don't link to copyright material
My edit: Sorry, I thought only direct links to the leaks were forbidden. 😇

Mortis Engine should gain the Nighthaunt keyword so that Start Collecting box actually becomes useful. I want to buy one, but as the engine is useless to us I’m just going to buy the separate boxes for Spirit Hosts and Hexwraiths
Mortis Engine not even being able to ally with us is highly irritating. However check out the Coven Throne. It will get 20 points cheaper and becomes more and more of a juicy addition to NH.
3 heals/resurrects, a spell to potentially bog down even the strongest units in the game and a Command Ability that's good enough that you'd want to spam it every single turn.

Interesting thing: Now I've seen the GHB page for Nighthaunt leaked in french and italian.
On the french page Kurdoss went down from 180 to 160 and Reikenor stayed the same. On the italian page, Kurdoss stayed the same but Reikenor went down 10 points. The other changes like Harridans or the lack of the new battalions are the same.

On 4chan. I'd rather not link to that place but should be easy to find. Just follow the smell 🙃

All the pages have been leaked already though

kind of weird that only LoA and Vorgorath are included and not Gloomspite stuff still in production (troll hag, squig gobba and collosal squig) didn't check mournghul

The Mourngul dropped 10? How do we know that?
I can't find it again for the life of me. Now I'm doubting my own memory. 🤔
Honestly I hope I remembered that wrong and we're in for a surprise points drop (grasping for straws here, but yall NH players understand)
[EDIT]
I have now seen the GH page and Mourngul costs indeed 270 (-10) now. -
At least the Mourngul went down a whooping 10 points.
I'm interested to know how much cheaper everyone's lists are now? Most of my 2000 points lists are 30 points cheaper from 10 Hexwraiths and the GoS. So the same as a Stormcast Lord Exorcist who went down from 120 to 90. 😂
1.5% cheaper army, I take it!

I actually like our artifacts, with some of them being quite potent. Our problem is more that our heroes aren't particularly good at all.
Balefire Blade and Headsman's Judgement would make good melee heroes outstanding. Slitter would be phenomenal on a durable hero. Pendant of the Fell Wind and Midnight Tome are universally great and Dreadbolt Ring being at least okay.
Now here's an interesting thought: The new Build-A-Hero mechanic (Anvil of Apotheosis) that will be introduced isn't just for open play and narrative. GW mentioned that Tournaments should think about allowing that mechanic and provided a way to calculate the Matched Play points values. If that becomes standard in the tournament scene, all we need to do is choose every damage and health upgrade we can on our MALIGNANT hero and our artifacts will make them shine.

Keep in mind that beyond the points page there are artifact changes (they have been very vague on if we lose Aetherquartz, they just said we won't have to compare everything to it)
The artifact changes refer to the new Realm rules. Instead of the full Malign Sorcery list, in every game one Realm has to be chosen and there's only one artifact that can be taken from there.
Here for example is the Realm of Shadows, Ulgu. Note that we can't take the Sword of Judgement anymore, so no Knight of Shrouds shenanigans to have at least one worthwhile melee hero. Also of note is how as command ability, now everyone can get a trimmed down version of Nighthaunt's Spectral Summons teleport.

Including Battalions and the Endless Spells, Stormcast have 21 things going down in points. Of which 11 units are 20-40 points each

It's better than before, but I haven't seen the changes for other factions. I just hope they didn't make Fyreslayers cheaper again
All 3 Magmadroth variants are now 10 points cheaper each. 🙃

They are changes from the battletome. The asterisk represents when the points value are not what they are in the battletome.
If that were true, Grimghast Reapers would have an asterisk too as they started out at 360 points
3 minutes ago, Greasygeek said:Wait what now?! Are you sure that Dolorous Guard is out? I just assumed that WD material never gets included in the books, despite still being officially legal?
Kinda the same thing goes for FW stuff like the Mourngul.
The Mourngul, like other Forgeworld stuff is in the Monstrous Arcanum section of the GHB that hasn't been leaked as of yet. But he's in there (and hopefully much much cheaper). Dolorous Guard and the other battalions not being in the Nighthaunt section therefore is quite telling.
-
Came here to post the points changes and the lack of the new battalions too.
Seen in a vacuum, these points drops are pretty mediocre. Having the points drops of other factions in mind, this is a net nerf to Nighthaunt. Oh well
-
How about their symbol with the warhammer and lightning but with a scythe instead.

Also, according to this AOSreminders.com data, the Balewind Vortex is by far the most popular Endless Spell. It's by no means as conclusive data as proper sales figures, but a good indication of what people use regularly.

GW does that all the time with terrain kits. Take The Garden of Morr for example which has been repackaged in varying sizes and under at least 3 different names.
Soooo, it's not really far off to see the Balewind Vortex repackaged... again...

How did you not lose entire units to Ogors? 😲
For me they always feel like one of the toughest matchups for Nighthaunt, even before Tzeentch and Petrifexiarch Elitereapers. They bring way too many wounds to the table for a faction that hits so hard. Without a few Wave of Terrors, they retaliate as if I had done nothing before.

Beautiful! Inspired by Dana Howl perchance?

- The Dolorous Guard is less solid in Legion of Nagash compared to Nighthaunt. This is because the Hexwraiths units in the Guard are allies in Legion of Nagash: as such, they do not get the 6+ shrug and they do not count toward battleline requirements. You can't heal them via the gravesites either, nor you can bring them back via Endless Legion. However, you can heal them via Deathly Invocation and/or spells such as Vile Transference.
QuoteQ: In a battle between two Legions of Nagash, do both players set up gravesites? If so, can a player use their opponent’s gravesites as well as their own?
A: Yes to both questions.
DG-Hexwraiths can use gravesites as they work indiscriminately even on your opponent. They can also benefit from Endless Legions as it is a command ability that only asks for SUMMONABLE. On the same vein they'd benefit from the 6+ shrug of Deathless Minion. An allied hero like Lady Olynder wouldn't generate the aura herself but would get a 6+ from another hero. She also wouldn't get something like the +1 to casting or even a spell from the spell lore in the first place because those allegiance abilities ask for "wizards in a Legion of Sacrament/Grand Host of Nagash etc army" and as an ally she wouldn't be part of that.
The key word in most of these abilities is "friendly" btw, which makes them so universally applicable.
-
Even as a 40k veteran this was the source of one of many confusions when I started the game too so I can relate.
-
Amazing!
Please consider doing one with Lady Olynder and Kurdoss Valentian 😂

What is THE monster in your opinion?

Zombie Dragon, Mourngul, Keeper of Secrets and Maw-Krusha are the ones I'd be most intimidated by. Even if I lived in that world and were a powerful hero myself.
