Thanks, @Borgnine ! Quite happy with how they're coming out. I like that the spirits help unify the look with Nagash, Arkhan and the Spirit Hosts. Regarding bases... they are actually resin, from Dragon Forge Design. Cheating, I know, but I'm very happy with the look, and I could never get...

Progress on the Deathrattle Horde: Elspeth von Draken, patiently awaiting her AOS Warscroll:

List preparation for the North Island Wargaming Convention here in New Zealand. We use using the SCGT rules, but with slightly smaller pool limits (deploy 80/120, instead of 100/150). Warband (Deployed Force): 1 x Arkhan the Black (1) = 20 1 x Necromancer (1) = 4 1 x Wight King with Black Axe...

Weighing in in favour of these cases. Works fine for most undead units. For larger models, I find you can remove one of the trays, put one in upside down, and it seems to work OK. That is for models like Nagash. You could supplement these larger models with extra packing to make sure. There are...

#TeamArkhan all the way! Welcome, and please post pictures of your army progress for us :)

My take on the benefits of Black Knights: Thematic benefits. You haven't got a TRUE Deathrattle Horde without them! Plus, they look awesome. If you are using the Warscroll Battalions, you may need Black Knights to fill the requirement. Buffing them with Vanhel's, and Lord of Bones, gives you a...

If anyone is interested, I made some home-brew rules for our local group to include rules tables for other deities. In terms of the bonus favour points granted to beating certain gods, we are working this out as we go - for example,life gets bonus against death and vice versa, light against...

Red Fury: Roll a dice after resolving any attacks with Konrad. If the result is less than the number of models he slew in that phase, he immediately piles in and attacks again. RAW, we kept reading this and thinking that he could potentially keep piling in over and over in the same phase. And...

Nice work, man - I hope you post more. What base size did you use for the Morghast?

I've really enjoyed the books so far. The Realm of Shyish audio-dramas have been my favourite so far. Especially Nagash's soliloquy at the beginning.

I know the bit you mean. It attaches to the small divot on the inside top of the billowy part of his cloak: I left it off mine, and just used greenstuff to smooth over the divot.

Be careful with the 'Joke rules'. I would suggest either allowing them as written or removing them completely. Check out Greasus Goldtooth. EDIT: These are supposedly being phased out as the new rules for the models are released - they only apply to 'legacy' armies. I like the added rules...

I've been using the Deathrattle Horde Battle Formation as a template. Similar to @Hmmmokaythen's list: Krell Wight King w Infernal Standard Necromancer 1 x Skeleton Archers 2-3 x Skelton Warriors (1 spears, 1 sword & shield) 1 x Grave Guard 1 x Black Knights I have the Kemmler model, but the...

Excellent comments so far. I am enjoying your work @najo as someone who is very excited about the future of AOS. I have yet to play with Undead (Goretide and Empire-That-Was so far). Have you seen this set of composition guidelines? I found it quite a good suggested framework, without taking...

Thanks guys! I might look at getting some scale cutouts of the different bases so that I can get a feel of what will work the best before I commit to ordering the resins. I do like the idea of standardised base sizes though, so will probably follow Plastic Krak's suggestions for the most part...

Thanks for the suggestion! They are going on custom resin bases from Dragon Forge Design in either case (round of square), so it's already budgeted for. Might as well do rounds for the new game.

Hi all, I have a fairly sizeable Undead army waiting in boxes, on sprues, for the Age of Sigmar to kick off. I would like to start getting into putting it all together, but wanted to canvas the community for some advice on which rounds/ovals to use. I appreciate that I am free to continue to...

Thanks guys, A bit of both, @Borgnine - I am using these for Mordheim but I don't think I would have bothered with round if it wasn't for the upcoming Age of Sigmar. But seeing how much of an improvement to the look these are over the square bases makes me hopeful about the next edition. The...
