For purely attacking is think tree revenants. But the spite revenants and bravery might be interesting too

I think the spites are really too situational at the moment to have much use especially when the tree revenants can be battle line too.

Good point. I was thinking the same but trying to figure out if there was soemthing to the bravery thing. Like an army dedicated to that, making other side run away

The only use of Spite-Revenants so far in my eyes is to fill de requirements to have Dreadwood Wargrove and its abilities.

Pure Sylvaneth I think the Tree-revenants are the better option (except as Haechi says for gaining access to the Dreadwood Wargrove). There is a decent synergy with Drycha as her spell attacks Bravery, and their battalion is decent at putting out mortal wounds. If you want to play them, then Dreadwood Wargrove, Drycha and Branchwyches would be quite fun with lots of mortal wounds and general shenanigans.

In a mixed Order army there are some interesting cross overs with other units like the Scourge Privateer faction to make a really heavily Bravery/ battleshock focused army. Also if playing a narrative game I could see Spite-revenants working with Death - both thematically and game play wise. Dropping leadership makes things like Crypt Flayers and Banshees much more threatening.

As you said, the Outcast battalion has the potential to be good. Paired with Drycha and if everything is in range, you could do a lot of mortal wounds. I just don't know how effective it would be in an actual game.

Also I'm very disappointed that Drycha's bonus to Spites is the same as the Dreadwood formation.
