I'm not sure I'll ever actually play this, but I thought it might be fun, and I've been looking for a way to use those Wraith Engines. The fever brain thought up this list, using the Bile Thralls and Bane Knights to fill up the Wraith Engines, so it's probably a bad idea :D
Completely dependent on souls, but sending in a fully loaded incorporeal Wraith Engine (or two) with 16" range (not including a TK on the target) might be fun. Apparition (2), Telekinesis (2), and Death Ride (1), means it should easily be in range to collect some souls from the Bile Purges in turn two. If only the Wraith Engine wasn't so huge, I could see it working well with Scaverous.

I am not sold on running only 1 node with Scavy @ 50 pts. Let us know how it went when you tested this list. I would swap Maddy for Gorman though.
ReplyDeleteMadelyn is a killer model, and often helps me more than Gorman, though the two of them together is fun. Gorman + Madelyn + Dougal + Telekinesis = 19" range Black Oil with +2 RAT and re-roll to scatter :D
ReplyDeleteThe single Arc Node is probably a bad idea, as you say, but twin Wraith Engines are expensive :D
