Do you Tomb Kings of Dakka field Tomb Herald BSB or is it not worth the points for you people?

He is really expensive for what he does.

I see.

Haven't had a chance to try it as I'm still playing low-points games (don't have enough Core yet for anything above 1500 or so). But I'd say he'd be really useful in two situations. One, using his Bodyguard rule to make a Tomb King that's nigh unkillable for a little deathstar of Chariots or Tomb Guard or such (or if you run the TK alone, like on a Warsphinx or something). And two, in lists where you're not bothering to protect your Heirophant. (it's possible, with plenty of Bound spells and magic items). Using high leadership and re-rolls to prevent crumbling.
