Danny Wadeson: First off, let me congratulate Solomon Morrow, not just on 1st place but also on actually kinda having a vampire esque name. Love to see it.
The list is Legion of Night, known primarily for its teleporting, Morbheg Claw wizards who can zip in, nuke a fool with Blizzard (and this one knows all the spells thanks to Shaman of the Chilld Lands) and then TP back out in the opponent’s hero phase – sneaky!
It’s also got Mannfred, who has multiple shenanigans and doesn’t see enough play in his own faction, along with your usual smattering of MSU deadwalkers, the usual VloZD and Graveguard brick, who’re a little more appropriately costed these days but still a fantastic hammer.
Assuming you’ve heard of Soulblight before, there’s not much else to comment on here other than it being quite interesting to see msu zombies. But it has Mannfred in, so I’m happy – I’d love to know how many times he counter-charged with fight first to disrupt the opponent’s plans!

Kieran Bailey: Just as I settle in to write the words, “now Tzeentch can use the spell Rupture to make the Incarnate go wild” I look down the rest of the list and realise that there isn’t actually a Krondspine! Atta boy, David!
So what do we actually have. Well, there’s the Guild of Summoners with their easy to score ‘Call for Change’ Battle Tactic (Summon a Lord of Change) that means that the Tzeentch player had an excellent chance of scoring 10 points for Battle Tactics and 3 points for the Grand Strategy, which is an excellent start to any game.
Leading this force there is the still very good Kairos, though overpriced – 25 points more than Kroak? Come on GW?! Along with the Eternal Shroud allowing Fate Dice to come back, Kairos’ one per turn means there should be plenty of ways to tip the odds in his favour.
One place where those odds being tipped could be handy is when sending in the Enlightened on Disc. If you can guarantee a charge and buff up the flying bird-goats with Hoarfrost then they will be able to do a truly epic amount of damage, particularly if their target’s save is reduced by one with the Arcane Sacrifice spell. The Enlightened also prevent command abilities being used in the fight phase, so could be fighting at effectively rend -4.
Another piece of tech that has become more powerful with the change to Cogs is the Tome of Eyes as this gives you the re-rolls back, though only on one caster – probably Kairos. It’s also not a predatory spell, so can get around limitations on casting those.
The only blemish on David’s path to 4-1 was a Khorne matchup that is very difficult for any magic heavy army and, in fact, most armies at the moment. Congrats on an excellent result, David – may many more come in future!

Walter Brock: Today we are looking at a tough cookie of a list. Running Petrifex Elite instead of the common Null Myriad we are used to seeing this season lately. This sub faction will allow the already tough units to be even harder to take out.
Spell casting savant works well with the Immortis guard. Making it very difficult to Deny the OBR grand strat.
Katakros alongside with Petrifex turns the toughness up to 11. Giving everything +1 to save and reducing enemy wound rolls by 1 in melee makes it very hard for things to go down.
The Boneshaper helps reinforce the hard to kill aspect of this list. Artisans key bringing back stalkers and Immortis guard is very efficient. That already nearly impossible to kill model just came back. Diversionary tactics reducing enemy charges by 3 within 12 can cause some charges to fail, deny battle tactics and make things difficult for the opponent all together. Reinforce constructs helps provide some protection from mortal wounds. One of the few sources of damage that can take out these tough units reliably.
The Ossifector is mostly here to buff the Morghasts. The primary buff going on them will be the +1 rend. A strong support piece to keep things going.
6 Immortis Guard are seen a lot. That’s because they are very good at what they do, not dying and bodyguarding your characters that are reviving the Immortis guard. With a once per game fight twice Immortis Guard have very respectable damage.
Deathriders are the Heros of Bonereaper lists. These can do pretty much anything. From screening to doing a simple battle tactic. This player opted for a single unit of Deathriders to open the battle tactic option mostly. The real meat and potatoes of the list is in the tough elite infantry and Morghasts.
A unit of 3 stalkers is interesting. A small, fast unit that can take out key targets or run around harassing the opponents’ sides. They aren’t as survivable as Immortis guard but gain speed and hit harder in return. A very strong unit for any situation.
lastly is the two Morghast units. Archai get a 5+ ward while wholly within 12 of a hero and Harbingers get the option to deep strike from off the board. Putting both units in adds for some powerful tactical flexibility. Both units when they roll and 8 or higher on the charge get fight first. Letting the list pile on more damage before the main threat of a unit has even attacked. The main strength of these guys is their ability to turn off commands within 3. This ability can throw a wrench in an opponent’s plan and help swing things in favor for the Bone Reapers play.
All this fits into a Battle regiment. A powerful list that is incredibly hard to kill the models, and lots of tactical flexibility. Well done to this player.

Aaron Newbom: An interesting monster mash style list revolving around a souped up mawkrusha and pigs with Gobbsprakk shutting down magic.
I’m gonna be honest I normally see a mawkrusha in big waaagh and assume the pilot doesn’t really know BW well. But this man clearly does with a 5-0 and a tough run of it too.
In many ways this is a list that takes bloodtoofs and subtracts some offense, mobility, and tempo in exchange for flexibility and consistency.
With the meta as it is, the burst damage of bloodtoofs doesn’t break a Soulblight armies back, and this list has to control and late game power to finish the job

Danny Wadeson: Shambling forward, often standing stubbornly in the way, groaning all the while and liable to keep coming back – no, it’s not me trying to bird-watch while hungover, it’s shit tonnes of Zombies! Competitive Soulblight players just can’t help themselves can they – this is why we can’t have nice things! Or, we can have them, they’ll just cost more very soon…
Basically, if you’re not already aware, Zombie in Vyrkos are bloody annoying to shift. And Vyrkos allows for a once per game heroic action to summon 10 Direwolves too – so we’re talking about a WHOLE lot of bodies on circles here. While supported by double corpse carts, 6s to wound do mortals – that’s likely on top of a bunch more you get each time a zombie you kill rolls a 5+.
Gorslav seals the deal as the premier zombie-buffer, helping them shuffle that bit faster with Spoor Trackers and with the Phylactery to project an aura of 5+++, making them truly frustrating to chew through.
Lauka Vai makes an appearance as a cheeky source of -1 to rend, acting as a cost effective monster and possibly making a 6″ pile in too, to compound the misery of having to run head long into all those grabby hands.
Zombies gonna get nerfed soon, somehow – let’s hope the next Battlescroll doesn’t put them in the ground for good…

Roland Rivera: In 4th place, we have an interesting little Khorne list that is built around the solid brick that is a 6-man unit of Mighty Skullcrushers. 30 Wounds with a 2+ save is a very tough nut for an army that does not have plentiful access to mortal wounds to crack, especially if there’s a Bloodthirster of Unfettered Fury nearby to slap -1 to hit on its attackers. While those two pieces anchor down the middle, this list can play some classic hammer & anvil games with the 10-man unit of Skullcrushers, or buy time for the plethora of minimum-sized units in the list to sit on objectives and rack up VPs.
The Hero mix to support this strategy is a Slaughterpriest for more prayers, a Bloodsecrator for a 1/game offensive buff and stronger Rallies for your Bloodbound pieces, and Skarr Bloodwrath as a reusable blocker/source of Blood Tithe. There is also a unit of Wrathmongers to grant extra attacks to any Khorne unit near them. Interestingly, Albin has chosen to g with the Bleeding Icon to shut off Battleshock over the Hexgorger Skulls to further disrupt magic armies, which reinforces the notion that this list wants to play aggressively. This notion is confirmed by the choice of subfaction, which rewards high charge rolls with strike-first.
All in all, this seems like a fun list that forces the issue and make the opponent play reactively to deal with your objective pressure while potentially setting them up for hard counterpunches from its reinforced blobs. Fun and effective – what’s not to like?

Roland Rivera: Despite this tournament being in a 2-list format, our winner seems to has thumbed his nose at that notion, as both of his lists are exactly the same! He has gone for the Hero-heavy Khorne approach which seems to be gaining momentum of late, as he has maxed out his Hero selections.
The list is anchored by Skarbrand and the Bloodthirster of Unfettered Fury, which are a vital source of mobility in the form of 3D6″ charges (Skarbrand for himself, the Unfettered Fury Thirster for anyone) and doing most of the damage. The list also packs several Priests (including the Unfettered Fury Thirster itself) to help power out whatever Prayer or Invocation is the most useful at the moment (and this list has a pretty deep selection). An interesting addition is Theddra Skull-Scryer as an Ally (likely for Andtorian Locus-centered Battle Tactics). Skarr Bloodwrath rounds out the Hero lineup as a cheap, recurring space blocker that can also double as a source of Blood Tithe.
These Heroes have some troop support in the form of a blob of Bloodletters and Magore’s Fiends, but they will mostly be asked to do the heavy lifting in combat, on both offense and defense. Overall, this style of Khorne list seems to be gaining momentum this season, so don’t be surprised if you see similar lists going forward.

Danny Wadeson: Ok, as a Soulblight player myself it’s easy to get excited rather than salty about the faction doing well. But, I probably owe it to everyone to start upping the sodium content a little at this point.
Because, turns out Soulblight are quite good at the moment y’all. Andrew here has opted for the ‘Legion of Night shenanigans’ list archetype, with Big Ol’ Bone Daddy himself, a shit load of zombies for him to constantly bring back, and some msu Fell Bats who are cheap and fast.
There’s also some Myrmourn Banshees for anti-spell tech, which is an idea I had during the last GHB – at which point I bought some and shelved the army until recently – but still, always been surprised they’ve haven’t cropped up more. So thank you to Andrew for vindicating me!
Gratz to the man on 2nd either way, no matter how good Soulblight are, Sylvaneth, Seraphon and Troggs are never easy to beat!

Danny Wadeson: So you got the memo that Soulblight (and Vyrkos in particular) are good now right? You may also have heard ‘something something zombie spam’ – but every so often, a trailblazer, a trend-setter, a maverick comes along and says ‘fnah’ to zombie, and ‘hurrah!’ to Deathrattle. Well, two by 10 of them as cheap MSU who can still be annoyingly hard to put down if you under-commit, and he does still have 40 zombs, which is a gentleman’s amount really.
He’s spent the other points on the usual stuff but he has slammed Cado in there, who is still underrated as a versatile hero on a teeny-tiny base. Otherwise, standard stuff of the ‘also 20 graveguard’ variety as they combo so well with Radukar’s ability to give something +1 attack after he’s charged.
And it only lost to Zaitrec LRL of all things! Either way, a pretty balanced Vyrkos list here that proves a) you don’t have to take a gazillion zombies to do well and b) that, actually, SBGL are totally fine and don’t need any more nerfs, at all! If LRL can beat them, nerf them again I reckon!

Walter Brock: What happens when Bonereapers and Soulblight work together in the same list? You get some spooky synergies. Gavin’s list has an unusual twist in the fact it doesn’t run 7 Bonereapers units to max out their command points, but more on that later. Onto the list.
Starting off we have Null Myriad. We’ve seen this do well quite a bit over the past few months. Being able to stop powerful spells on a 2+. When things like merciless blizzard exists is incredibly powerful. Very important to note. Katakros and the Regiment of renown do not benefit from Null Myriad.
Spellcasting savant has become the go-to choice for Bonereapers at this point. Killing the ossifector next to six Immortis guard is a very tall order.
First we have the powerful Combo of Katakros and Arkhan. Katakros makes everything tougher with his 1+ to save and +1 to hit Aura in a massive 24 in Aura. While also applying crippling affects to the opponent by giving a enemy unit -1 to hit and also potentially making the opposing player lose a command point each turn. Arkhan being a magical powerhouse in death, second only to Nagash himself. With three casts and unbinds at +2 he can compete with the best casters in the game. He basically has the hunger like vampires from soulblight. So he gets healing from doing some damage in combat. They also each come with an incredible healing ability. Leading to a potential total of 18 wounds of healing each Bonereapers hero phase at minimum.
The ossifector is an interesting choice. While it won’t be able to use the main ability on its warscroll due to the unit in the army. The Artifact applys a 9 inch Aura of +1 to wound in melee. Meaning Immortis guard can now be hitting and wounding on 2s. This artifact alongside Katakros makes the list incredibly efficient. Hoarfrost adds more good support of making numbers even better. Diversion tactics creates a powerful -3 charge bubble for enemy units. Potentially denying battle tactics or key enemy charges.
Death riders are seen everywhere these days for OBR. Easy battle tactic. Good screen. Good for almost any job. And with all the buffs the list can provide. Any unit of deathriders could be a deadly threat.
Immortis guard are incredibly tanky being 5 wounds and a 2+ save under Katakros. Arkhan throwing up mystical shield and All out defense will making Immortis almost impossible to take down.
Lastly is the Soulblight Regiment of renown. These act as a normal corpse cart and zombies unit with a few differences. The corpse cart is now a hero. This lets it benefit from the -1 to hit from look out sir, and adds another model that can issue commands (No OBR commands since it isn’t a Bonereapers model). And the big thing is the corpse cart gives off a 12 inch bubble of -1 to ward saves for enemy units within range. The zombies provide a cheapish screen. Something bonereapers don’t normaly have access to.
All of this ends up as a three drop list. Well done to this player.

Roland Rivera: Taran Birk has brought us a spicy morsel of a Khorne list. Most lists of the Blood God’s forces rely on their troops – not this one. Instead, this list has gone for the full 6 Heroes (including the double Warlord battalion), the full 3 Invocations, and mostly kept the troops to the “cheap objective holders” role. Think of it as Khorne’s best Tzeentch impression.
The stars of the show are Skarbrand and the Bloodthirster of Unfettered Fury, which will be giving you 3D6″ charges (Skarbrand for himself, the Unfettered Fury Thirster for anyone) and doing the heavy lifting in the damage department. The list also has several Priests (including the Unfettered Fury Thirster itself) to help power out whatever Prayer or Invocation is the most useful at the moment. Skarr Bloodwrath rounds out the Hero lineup as a cheap, recurring space blocker that can also double as a source of Blood Tithe.
Some interesting additions are Khagra’s Ravagers as an Ally (likely for the teleporting objective grabbing threat of Mask of Darkness, and Andtorian Locus-centered Battle Tactics) and a Cockatrice as a deterrent for charging into one of the big guys. Overall, this style of Khorne list seems to be gaining momentum, so don’t be surprised if you see similar lists going forward.

Kevin Lathers: Noe has run a very similar list to good effect previously. With some slight tweaks in that list he seems to have improved his standing. Always good to see effective adjustments.
With only a single priest with Wrath of Vulcatrix (to secure the Grand Strat), this list foregoes the usual inclusion of a Runesmiter as well as any Magmadroths. Instead it relies on the Runemaster’s Ember Storm prayer and the new hero’s once per game 6″ bubble of Run + Charge to add any speed it needs. Further, the Grimwrath Berserker can be given Run + Charge as an oath or stick near the Grimhold to soak up the buff and take a different Oath. This makes the list surprisingly quick, albeit only one time.
With all these vulkites and Hearthguard Berserkers, the list can certainly sit on objectives and hold them, relying on the Flamekeeper buffs, Counterstrike, and Fight on Death to hold any charging waves of opponents to very poor trades. And then, if opponents do charge into the lines, the flamekeepers will often maintain their buffs for a counter charge/fight on the next turn with +2 damage on a units weapons; this can be devastating on the Broadaxe berserkers, sending them to 4 damage swings or making a Vulkite Axe unit have 3 damage swings with a ton of attacks.
His matchups were mostly favorable for Fyreslayers — SoB are notoriously a DPS check and that’s an area Fyreslayers seldom struggle with; further the new hero can be quite potent if he can get his once per game nuke on a gargant, rolling 35 to 40 dice for an average of 17 to 20 mortal wounds on a single attack. But managing a draw against Khorne is impressive with a Fyreslayers’ list which relies on auras, which Khorne can mess up with their controls, and shows not only the tankiness of the list but the skill of the pilot. Khorne can control the battlefield in such an exreme way while being tankier, hitting as hard as FS for less cost, and being able to deny the grand strat; so pulling out a draw is quite good.
Overall it’s a solid list piloted by a good player. Falling just shy of a the golden 5-0 but still claiming undefeated is no easy feat with Fyreslayers in the current meta.

Brett Martin: Shout out to Jon for his ASCII shark at the top of his shark list. Very clever.
Joshua Bennett: So what happens when you just get finished watching the Sharknado series and decide to go to a GT. Well, ask no further because Jon Anderson answered it for us. What should have been a meme list actually turns out to be a new meta for deepkin. How you might ask, as well you should. Let’s take a dive (see what I did there dive, and a shark list) and break this list down.
First we have the twins. What is the twin’s purpose you might ask. And that would be an amazing question to ask as the purpose seems unclear. And i’ll be honest after playing the list round five in this tournament other than a level 2 caster i could not answer that question for you other than Jon had to somehow still play Lumeth models in his new list. But much like the bermuda triangle the world may never know the true answer.
The tidecaster gives off a nice ritual that they can choose from. Against my all shooting list, he chose the ritual that does not allow line of sight outside of 12 inches, which you know isn’t cool but works great with this list. The artefact allows him to throw a ship on the board to shut down charge lanes and have a garrison terrain wherever he wants it.
Now let’s talk about the sharks, deepkin has the advantage in shooting bc the allegiance ability only allows your opponent to shoot the closest unit. While he maintains a 24” range for his shots, that added with his 14 inch move means nowhere on the board is safe. He on the other hand just feeds you one or two sharks a turn. So they are great at shooting, I’ll just charge them. I see this being the thought of most people but what you have to understand is that they are also decent in combat and can lift your units as well.
There are not a lot of good answers to this list and behind the piloting skills of Mr. Anderson, this list is very deadly. If you happen to be paired into him, make sure you bring a bigger boat.

Jon Anderson: I’m a big fan of Josh’s listbuilding style, and it’s full send on efficiency.
Be’lakor was not a direct power player in our game, but he helps deal with the handful of bad matchups you had in the previous Generals Handbook so I think it’s perfectly valid to see it here.
In terms of raw efficiency, I don’t think much can outlast this list and I’d heavily advise anyone who is interested in a 40k-esque army to give this book and, more specifically, this list a look.
As much as it pains me to say, this was an uphill battle from the starting gun as forcing Josh to shoot the closest fish, as well as only being visible within 12″ due to the Isharann Ritual, meant that if Josh went first
he would do nothing and then risk the double. Because this was the case, he had to give me top of 1, which allowed me to remove about 25% of his blissbarbs and subsequently present him with a single shark that he could
shoot at when the turn went back to him. This was a case of Allegiance Ability supremacy and goes to show that if we do go into a shooting meta again, now that Deepkins points have dropped, it’s well within reason to believe that an MSU list of this sort could become a real power player in the meta.
Josh seized his moment at the bottom of turn one by getting his epitome into two sharks with a great charge however the curse of the single model unit came back to bite him and rolling 3 1’s to hit with the epitome
left her exposed and vulnerable. After losing his epitome, 20 blissbarbs, and two seekers at the end of round 1, losing the priority roll was the last nail in the coffin. The mobility of sharks meant that I would be able to
fly around the board and attack at every conceivable angle, and Josh didn’t have much recourse to play against it.
Don’t get it twisted. If you, as the reader, took Josh’s list to an event, you will do significantly better than if you took my shark list. Josh’s list is refined, honed, and deadly. My list was just the one thing he couldn’t deal with.

Walter Brock: This player chose to use Null Myriad for the spell ignore. Adding a layer of protection from powerful spells from factions such as Tzeentch and Seraphon.
Spellcasting Savant works very well with the Boneshaper and Immortis Guard for getting a reliable battle tactic.
Starting off with the list itself, we have Katakros himself. The big boss himself has several abilities to support or disrupt the opponent. The main buff he provides is an absolutely massive 24” aura of +1 to hit and +1 to save rolls. It is important to note that He still has the Mortis Praetorians keyword. This means he cannot benefit from the Null Myriad sub faction.
The general of this list is a Boneshaper with a standard loadout with Artisans key and Aura of Sterility with Dark Acolyte. Aura of Sterility helps to protect your army from opposing shooting. Dark acolyte allowing for an easy battle tactic in magical dominance, and Artisans key potentially allowing a second use of it heal ability.
Next is an interesting choice in the form of a Soulreaper. These are not seen very often. The key difference from a reaper to an Ossifector or Boneshaper is first. It’s cheaper points wise, and it has a decent combat profile with potentially up to 5 attacks at rend 2. Meaning it can hit decently hard while spreading the Null Myriad aura and providing spell support. It’s a very cool thing to see on the table.
A unit of 3 Immortis Guard is a little bit of a difference from the Normal 6 Immortis we see in most lists. These are tanky, provide solid damage, and help protect the shaper for the grand stratagem.
Two units of 6 Stalkers. This player decided to step on the gas and keep going. Hunt and kill let them count as flying for moving over terrain, and they can run and charge. There are four different stances that allow them to adapt to different situations. Making for a tough to kill unit that can hit hard and move fast.
Lastly is a single unit of Deathriders. These can act as a nice screen. Provide an easy battle tactic and their speed to get into places to block enemy units off. Death riders have several uses, and the only limit is one’s imagination.
All of this fits nicely into a battle Regiment to be a single drop. Well done to this player.

Kevin Lathers: This list was a fun one that was brought due to a poll posted in various discords with lists. The denizens of those discords could vote and I would take the winner.
There were six lists. In this case, “I Was A Fyreslayer in My Previous Life But Now I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Balloon But I Have to Still Help My Old Lodge??!?!?” won the vote. Only twenty people voted, but it won with a resounding 6 out of 20 votes! The people crave Isekai, I guess. Originally it was supposed to have Brokk as the titular hero, but I couldn’t find my Brokk (I guess he’s on his own adventure or was kidnapped by a cat) so it ended up getting Wardens instead.
The list itself is very good at accomplishing tactics, in part due to the added mobility of the Wardens combined with Vulkites and a Grimwrath to aid in accomplishing FS tactics. The Wardens also added a bit of speed to a list lacking runesmiters and throughout the tournament assassinated four wizards and a priest. They ended up being quite potent.
Further, the new hero was actually quite useful. By sticking it near the HGB, along with the Runefather, you have a block of units all with a 4+ that can run+charge once per game and all get +1 to charge. This allows for heavy split pushing, with that trio going one place and the rest going another, the Grimwrath is a free agent going where he chooses due to oaths and self-sufficiency.
Despite being a bit of a fun list, and not particularly competitive, it ended up playing surprisingly well. My only loss was to a very solid Khorne player taking advantage of my mistakes while playing an unconventional list that actually was somewhat of a counter to this one. ‘
For anyone looking to ally in some KO and maybe look for a simpler list to run, this may work well for you.
