I think the way this works is obvious. Monsters on the board, Scourges in the air.

you might want to take a electrocorrosive whip on the haemy as dealing 2 wounds instead of 1 for only 4pts is worthwhile.


Scourges are great, I would take bigger units so that if the opponent unleashes a volley into them you don't start losing your dark lances too fast, they are super cheap at 14pts/model and with 3 poisoned shot each (with new split fire option) they are totally worth it.

What would you suggest dropping to make those changes? Lances? Could be a good plan.

I like the concept of 3 lances per unit and I would drop a full unit of scourges too. that would give you more than enough to bring up the three leftover units to 10 each with a few leftover points.

alternatively you could take out the smaller unit of 2 talos to get 18 new scourges. do you really have 8 Talos?



For a coven list I actually like the wracks, they get to T5 with a haemy beside them which is nothing to sneeze at for a 10pts model who deals poisoned attacks and has a 5++.

Im even starting to like the grotesques, they have 5 attacks with a -1 armor and get to T6 with haemy.

Oh I love wracks and grots. I have a lot of them too. Custom converted grotesques from Storm Vermin and Talos parts. I've got a different list with them and less talos. I just wanted a chance to use all my pain engines
