    An interesting list. The Guardian of Souls works on paper, though I wonder how much better a Vampire Lord would be. You're wasting a spell slot that could be used for other things like access to an additional spell from the blood spell book. The spell you do have you can have for free though at a D3 instead of D6. Also, and this is very biased on my part, but I dont think Reapers do work as well as people say, at least when it comes to pure damage output. They make up for it in movement and being ethereal though. 

    So yeah its not bad in my opinion or at least its different. I just wonder about overall damage output potential and the effectiveness of the Guardian. It would be cool to hear how your matches go!

    Cheers for the advice, I did toy between the Vampire Lord and the Guardian however the Guardian of Souls is the Birthday Store exclusive one (the spell lets a Nighthaunt unit move 6" in the Hero Phase) meaning the Reapers are moving 14".

    Also any enemy units within 9" of him can only charge on a 1D6" which can hopefully hinder some units.

    The reapers for me are fast, multiple attacks and have rend, something I feel alot of the death units lack without having to spend alot of points (Morghasts etc). 4+ unrendable and the fact I can get them to pile in twice I'm hoping they can do the damage while also capturing objectives with their numbers.

    Might have my first game on Thursday against Skaven so will see how I do then.

    Do You expect Anything to Get in preorder The 29th?

    I Want Badly New chariots! But if They Got them They Surely had It shown weeks ago

    Could always kitbash some chariots. Use the Chaos Chariot as a base and then rather than a horse pulling it have some Chaos Warhounds dragging it along. Add some Bestigor as crew and hey presto!

    Is there any hint of a separate way to buy Chainrasps besides the starter?

    Nope unfortunately not. Think they're going to be like Poxwalkers from 40K, only available in the starter set :(

    I've managed to get 60 so far, think I'm buying another Soul Wars and going halves with a mate to bring me up to 80 Chainrasps.

    Yes this could be a cool thing, but could also be a bad thing at the same time, as there would be no way for us to test them before hand and therefore could make for very 'interesting' games.. What you thinking then?

    yeah there's both sides to the coin if allowing custom battalions. Think you'd need to rule it that they're submitted way in advance for you guys to check them out and make sure their not completely and utterly broken.

    I've got a few ideas (wouldn't be me without flittering between 4-5 ideas at a time) one I'm thinking of was a Swamp Family, basically Troll Hag, Troggoths and their pet monster of the swamps (Dread Maw).

    But hey, still five months to go so I'm sure I'll change my mind way before lol
