Units 1 x Corpse Cart (80)* 4 x Myrmourn Banshees (90)*
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!

Jon Anderson: Coming from out of nowhere with a haymaker of a list is Nicolas Tassone showing the world why you don’t sleep on the REAL god of magic. Teclis and friends used the Andtorian Acolytes battalion to great effect in Nicolas’ 5-1 finish only dropping to Crematorians in the final round.
With a beautiful endless spell suite, Nicolas was sure to send his opponents care packages from afar courtesy of the Umbral Spellportals and Malevolent Maelstrom. This is what I like to see from Lumineth. No Vanari Sentinels in the list at all.
This is a list with some hair on its chest.

The Top Three AoS Lists
Army Faction: Ossiarch Bonereapers – Subfaction: Null Myriad – Grand Strategy: Spellcasting Savant – Triumph: Inspired
LEADERS Arkhan the Black (380)* – Spells: Drain Vitality Mortisan Boneshaper (140)** – General – Command Traits: Diversionary Tactics – Artefacts of Power: Artisan’s Key – Spells: Empower Nadirite Weapons Mortisan Boneshaper (140)** – Spells: Merciless Blizzard
We’re lucky enough at Woehammer to know Mrigank and the Stormkeep guys fairly well. So it seemed natural to ask Mrigank for a breakdown of his list.
Mrigank Jha: To no one’s surprise, Null Myriad is one of the hottest picks in the Summer of Death. The ability to disregard ye olde magical dominance of Tzeentch and Seraphon’s Mortal wounds spam pummeling traditional melee armies into the ground is held in check by this subfaction and so that was the pick. That being said, Katakros + Arkhan is all the rage now. Save stacking, recursion, negative bonuses, The list with 6 Immortis Guard and Katakros matched with Arkhan’s magical abilities is very good, very oppressive…….and incredibly boring. So I went in a slightly different direction.
I wanted to take advantage of extra primal dice for casting and unbinds so I went with dual Boneshapers to add a bit of recursion as well. One unit of Immortis guard to protect Arkhan from 15 Thunderers or 44 Blissbarb Archers if need be. And instead of the 6 Immortis Guard route, I went with the more damaging Hammer unit 6 Stalkers, who also have better mobility overall. I used the extra points from not taking Katakros towards a Morghast Archai for the OBR mirror and two spells Aethervoid Pendulum for more MWs and Hero assassinations and Soulstealer carrion to help me take objectives against the cheap SBG hordes of skeletons and zombies.
I faced Gloomspite Gitz, the OBR Mirror (the ones with Katakros + Arkhan + 6 Immortis Guard) Twice (once in round 2 and then in round 5). Blades of Khorne, and Soulblight Gravelords. Andtorian Acolytes was indispensable in making sure I always had a bank of primal dice to either cast my own spells or hold off to cancel out theirs. Instead of the usual Aura of Sterility (-1 to hit and wound in shooting) I went with Diversionary tactics (-3 to charge in a 12 inch aura) as the command trait on my Boneshaper to help with the OBR mirror and also against Legion of Night and Khorne. Mannfred and SBG units found it very difficult to counter charge with that aura affecting them and a key redeploy from my Boneshaper often messed up my opponents 6 or 7 inch charges. The extra units like Morghast Archai, with their ability to turn off commands within 3 and the damage of 6 Stalkers was enough to chew thru Trolls, Bloodthirsters and even 6 Immortis Guard. I felt like the extra units gave me more play on the board than the traditional Arkhan + Katakros list. Moreover having Merciless Blizzard and Pendulum to hit Katakros who isnt affected by a 2+ spell ignore, did make opponents nervous
As for the recursion, I don’t believe any opponent could have dealt with 30 wounds of Immortis Guard or Stalkers outside of a well placed double turn. I think recursion in OBR should probably be limited to 10 wounds for the health of the game, as I did find myself playing for a nervous double turn often in the mirror match to be able to fully wipe a 30 wound block of Immortis Guard/ Necropolis Stalkers before they all came back.
Overall I think this list has potential and a great toolset in the current meta. I’ll tweak it further after the battlescroll and its changes.

Laron Roberts: Thanks for highlighting my list! I’ve been playing Slaanesh since second edition and I’m having tons of fun taking them to tournaments recently. Stick with me while I try to dissect my list here first. Hedonites of Slaanesh in its current form pretty plays its own game without to much regard for what your opponent is doing. Ive foundI only care what their doing to find reasons to use my Temptation Dice.
In my list I use Glutos to form a durable center that helps deter alpha strikes on my vulnerable units. While using the Pretenders Hosts ability to use the same ability more then once to put out alot of damage with anyone who does try for the Alpha. With this season I’m able to reliably use buffs to turn my Contorted Epitome into a Depravity farming creature of destruction with Hoarfrost and Flaming Weapon. Slick blades are in the list to push to get to 12 Debravity as soon as possible to really seal the deal on making my opponents army inefficient.
All right… Let’s dive in. This list does so many things well for me, but it has pretty key changes compared to other list that you’ll see for slaanesh. First only three min squads of blissbarbs… oh no! How could he possibly win with only 33 blissbarbs? Well, I think blissbarbs are obviously amazing, but at their current cost (appropriate cost, no more nerfing them!) and their vulnerability to lots of lists out there, they are pretty susceptible to getting blown off the table turn one if that’s all you have in your list. 33 is great – if you tried to alpha for me first turn, you’re getting unleashed hell times three; they’ll shoot down any screens pretty effectively; and really, with only 33, people still seem to freak out over them but they aren’t oppressive like other mass shooting lists.
You’ll notice that I also took two minimum size squads of slickblade seekers. Side note—I’m so glad they don’t suck anymore, they are one of my favorite models ever. This does mean that I cannot take a battle regimen for my list… And that’s totally OK. At gateway open, people seemed super concerned I would alpha them down turn one, so they opted to take first turn even though I was lots of drops. I’m not sure what the right answer for them is, but I did not feel like I was at any serious disadvantage going second. Second, I think 2×5 slickblades is the way to go. They are five up save and die at the slightest breeze. I feel pretty confident with two units of five that I can get my 12 depravity turn one pretty much every game. But then, unlike lists with a single reinforced unit, I have another squad for tactics, eliminating threats, getting me to 24 points, whatever I need. Having a second unit makes me a constant threat on turns two, three, four, or five.
Contorted is great. Some people think she (they? There’s two of them…) should be like 350 points, which is ridiculous. She’s perfectly fine at her points, I think people are actually just sad about crown of dark secrets and Warlord Supreme. Despite the haters, she’s actually super fragile and one misplay loses her, and without her I lose a ton of my power. Not much to say about the Lord of pain. While in some ways you don’t need him, being able to give out all out attack x3, his synergy with my blissbarbs and seekers regardless of my command points or other factors is just consistently awesome. I wasn’t taking him in lists for a while, but I really see his value now.
Lastly, the big man, Glutos! I see him in a lot of list, but I. He’s a damage threat, he heals like soulblight hunger heroes, and oh, -1 to hit is still really good. I find that most opponents don’t know what to do with Glutos, contorted, slickblades, and blissbarbs—there’s a lot of target priority confusion. This is especially true for Glutos where people aren’t sure if they should commit to him or avoid him. But they all feel really sad when they run in against him and his minus 1 to hit aura. I miss some of the things he had before the new tome, but he’s still just an incredible piece, and so hard for people to counter. And personally, I think my model has the sickest paint job out there.

Austin Timesch: There are 3 things in this list design that I have found to work best in the several two day events I have played kruleboyz.
Egomaniak on the sludgeraker is so important to making sure the buff to your armies damage and keeping the grand strat intact. Using 2 big blocks of gutrippaz is a huge wound sponge for your general to abuse. ( I have not lost my sludgeraker since the change to 2 big blocks of gutrippaz) Gobsprakk and abusing the primal dice for dispels. The ability to just say nope and do damage to small foot casters or a neferata or arkhan is amazing. Huge attrition and denial piece to armies.
Killaboss- I know everyone is used to playing order or the new death factions so they don’t really understand this mechanic of bravery. However playing this inferior grand alliance known as destruction we have to play in a phase of the game most people just skip. The killaboss allows you to act like one of those try hard grand alliances and just lose 1 model instead of your entire unit from chip damage.
To build on these 3 pillars of success The locus battalion really helps you maintain an opportunity to dispel with gobsrpakk and or cast blizzard from one of your shamans Also the wizard finder battalion really makes gutrippaz slap into the big bads of this meta like the VLOZD or neferata etc. Getting a potential 61 attacks on a unit at a time is really a tipping point.
The main Strat of the list is to find as many objectives in the center or near each other as possible and maintaining hold more and hold 2 every turn.
Second, as you maintain your castle and what I mean by castle is your killaboss is within 3 of both big blocks of gutrippaz, your sludgeraker is wholly within 12 of your bolt boyz and your 1 exposed block of gutrippaz you want people coming into, and lastly your shamans are within 3 of boltboyz and both units of gutrippaz to ensure the options of MAXIMUM DAMAGE!!!!!
As you move your castle up I like to set up the mighty waaaagh turn. What this entails is mostly charging in with the general, and both units of gutrippaz which are poisoned at the time. This allows my general and 2 units to fight after the general fights. Most times this cripples or absolutely deletes the current targets. This 1 turn a lot of times is when your opponent will go “kruleboyz are not that bad” or “I didn’t expect this much damage from Kruleboyz”
In all fairness when people ask me how I have had success with kruleboyz it comes down to playing them to specifically counter the current meta. And right now kruleboyz is spectacular into OBR and some SBGL lists. (we wont talk about how anyone can pilot these armies to 4-1/5-0)
Back to reasons why this list is fun and in a good spot. Your main sources of damage come from poisoned gutrippaz and or poisoned boltboyz. Rolling a slot machine every time adds to both the banter and enjoyment of the game with your opponent. With this being said as you go through your games the main reason of playing your game is to have fun and enjoy your time with your opponent. I have had the pleasure of playing the top of the game in the likes of gavin, and nate T ghosty pants. At that level even then the main reason is to play a good game and enjoy it. I hate the stigma on how competitive games cant be enjoyable. They can be and just make it a priority in your game on a personal level and it will happen.
Feel free to message me if you have any questions but, in all honesty, if I can find success with kruleboyz you can too! Roll 6’s and lets grow this community.

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!

This is the top three AoS lists for Donkeycon that took place in New Zealand on the 12th and 13th of August. It involved 10 players vying to be crowned champion in a 5-game tournament.
As this event had less than 20 players attending there won’t be any list comments here as the guys will be concentrating on the larger events of the week.
Before I jump into the Top Three AoS Lists, I wanted to remind everyone of our friendly Discord server where you can join in the conversation with the Woehammer crew and suggest articles or series for the website.

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.
