Does it have to be 40? Would you consider 35? or 30?
Drop another unit from the below and you can add Belladamma.

I was thinking. Thoughts?
VLOZD
BELLA
35 BKs

Really trying to make a 40 BK army work. Having troubles with what heroes to take with the 440Pts left over. The options are a VLOZD, vengorian lord and radukar the wolf/V lord, or Bella and Wright king on steed. Anyone got some thoughts or played a list with similar amount of BKs??
…….FAQ, yes I own 40, can show proof lol

Vs Lumineth specifically? I think it's probably worse than with Radukar and 10 Dire Wolves but 30 Blood Knights is 30 Blood Knights.
If just talking about a general all purpose list I also prefer the Radukar version but VLoZD version is certainly fine. I'd also be tempted to try 5x5 Blood Knights and swap the VLoZD for Vhordrai, plus either 20 zombies and 3 Fell Bats or 2x3 Fell Bats.
I'd also generally go 2x Battle Regiment over 2x Battle Regiment and hunters. I don't think immunity to rampage on 3 units is worth +2 drops. YMMV though.
Meant take all corners in general, was reading your battle report and trying to figure a good healthy medium. Going to Houston Gt end of the month and it seems to be looking sons, ogres, and sce heavy

I've had a ton of success against Lumineth with Soulblight so far, although with the caveat that I've only faced the typical Zaitrec or Syar Teclis + Vanari lists. Usually it's Teclis, 20-40 wardens, 20-40 sentinels and one other hero.
I've won basically all of my games against these types of lists, and most of the games have been very lopsided.
Here are my observations:
- Lumineth's strength is suppressing heroes both through highly targeted mortal wounds and through things like Total Eclipse. The less reliant you are on heroes the better you will be.
- Lumineth's weakness is that they tend to have to castle in order to keep their units buffed effectively, and overall their mobility is limited. Lumineth often struggles with objective play and to some extent with battle tactics. The plans where they have an easier time on objectives they tend to have a harder time on tactics.
- Lumineth can deal very focused and targeted damage well but their overall damage output is very low. This can be exploited by favoring defensively efficient units.
The natural conclusions to draw from these observations is that you should not overly rely on heroes, you should take advantage of opportunities to play the objectives, and you should focus on packing the board with a lot of bodies/wounds. Expensive characters are bad vs. Lumineth, although it's unlikely that they can be avoided completely if you are using an all-comers list as you need at least some heroes for certain battleplans. I've found that Mannfred, the Necromancer, and Radukar are the best heroes. Mannfred doesn't need to get in combat and isn't easy to kill. He will probably die, but at least your opponent will need a turn or two to get the job done. Small Radukar and the Necromancer are both disproportionately difficult to kill due to bodyguard. Big Radukar at least leaves behind some wolves.
Grave Guard are not good against Lumineth due to poor defensive efficiency. Blood Knights are much better, and Zombies are also great. Dire Wolves can be useful, too.
The list that I've tried that dunked on Lumineth the hardest is very simple:
Mannfred
Radukar the Beast
6x5 Blood Knights
10 Dire Wolves
2x Battle Regiment
They will probably kill Mannfred on turn 1 or 2, but that hardly matters. Just run up and smash. If you get the double turn it's over instantly, if not they may be able to kill some Blood Knights but when they kill a unit or two there are plenty more.
What do you think of
Manfred
VLoZD
6 x 5 Blood knights
battle regiment
hunters

Anyone got any tips/videos for running Nagash in Soulblight?
Gonna try it out for the first time on Sunday.
Tips: I’ve noticed that nagash is a better debuffer/tanker than damage dealer. Not sure what the rest of your list is, but you for sure need hammers so nagash can be your anvil.

Anyone notice that Poland team tournament that was running
Nagash
Wight knight w/ rousing and fragment
4 x 5 bloodknights
Corpse cart
The list was repeated throughout multiple teams. Not sure how it would do in a singles open style GT. Thoughts?

How many chaos spawn should we have available in our summoning pool? With just a Magister I'm guessing that 2 would be plenty, but what about a magic focused list with Kairos + Magister + Blue Scribes? What's the most you've ever ended up with on the battlefield at the same time?
I have 4 spawns, and I run what you stated above, never really felt I needed more. Most of the time they’re killed right away because you’re using them as chaff blockers most of Time.

Well guys, looks like I'm in. I picked up the army book today.
Just ordered 2 Bats, 2 Zombies, Wolves, Wight King and Belldamma, I'll pick up some Blood Knights and Vengorian from my LGS as I know they have them in stock.
I can't believe the VLOZD only comes in the Start Collecting FEC box. wtf.
I bought two boxes of start FEC and just sold the Ghouls and horrors 🤣

It looks quite a lot like the 5-6 of the last bastardized Dynasty lists we’ve seen here.
You’ll need to risk Mannfred in order to buff things with him, Blood Knights are always hammers, all they need is All-out attack and a reasonably fast friendly unit to help minimalize their target’s pile-in and swing back. The Vengorian protection aura will only do it if he’s in base to base, for the most part, and it doesn’t do much to protect units around him as much as it works for himself.
I’d get rid of Manny and the Wolf, bring the Beast a Spellportal and another fell bat squad. The extra spawned puppies will help herd everything for your Knights, you can afford to burn some wolves on Belladamma’s command ability, which will win you games for not only taking the objective but helping to ensure nobody can contest them if they get too close. Spellportal for early Lycancurses and Fellbats for clipping/unleash hell friends. Just my two cents.
Thanks for your advice, I’m trying to test a bunch of different variations to see what sticks

Thoughts on this??? I was thinking with manFred and other heroes, you can just turn the blood knights into hammers while maintaining their durability with the vengorian lord. Fell bats for chaff and wolves for protection and chaff

that would be bloody terrible for competitive or casual... DOA
.. unless BR Kragnos has some sort of never before seen level of buffs... which it wont.
I agree, Based on the new vamp knight release and dark eldar, I can see kragnos actually being cheap and cost effective. It doesn’t make sense financially to ruin him

Hey y’all, new to this army. I came from playing competitive 40k and got into a competitive AoS scene down by me. However, Still new to AOS, been playing pick up games to learn, was wondering if I can get some feedback on my list below. I did some of my own research and tried to fine tune the list based off other tournament results but curious what y’all think.
Volturnos
2 allopexes w/ net launchers
6 M guard
6 M guard
3 M guard
3 I guard
3 I guard
3 aetherwings

Thanks for advice, yea I was thinking maybe the 10 wolves spawned by radukar might be good enough for chaff but I could be wrong. Mortals wounds lacking is also a issue potentially.
