Lady O is great at holding the fort, but I think she costs too much without giving enough. Her spell is great, but she eats up a leader slot which everyone has precious few of. Plus, having personally been on the recieving end of a Drowner and Bladegheists combo, it's much scarier than anything Lady O can do

#

The list above is of course just generic Nighthaunt Goodstuff, and if you want Reikenor, I'm sure you can drop the Guardian of Souls and a unit of non-reinforced Hexwraiths for Reikenor and a unit of Glaivewraith Stalkers

#

That’s a pretty good Aggro list but it’s kind of trying to play matchup roulette imo

#

It’s basically gambling that Bladegheists with Special Assignment and +1/+1 will lift something

#

And, to be fair, they often do. But if you get hit first it’s trouble

#

True enough. I would do more hexwraiths but its a lack of owning those models issue

swift peak
#

That unit of 5 is pretty fungible imo

#

I think the main lessons to take from that list are more Bladegheists

#

And that if you’re gonna go Reikenor over Guardian, Morbid is probably the play

sharp jasper
#

Its a unit of 10

#

But i can add more gheists

#

Ouhh sorry you were talking about the other list

#

My bad

swift peak
#

You have 10 Hexwraiths in your list already, the main difference is the 5-man

#

And tbh I don’t think those add much other than triggering MWs for the Harridans

#

And you can accomplish that in other ways

sharp jasper
#

I was going to use crossboos and drowner for tagging things for harridans to attack

One sec

That 10-man of Bladgheists feels like it could be Dreadblade Harrows or something

sharp jasper
#

It could be. Scoring piece

#

Same point cost

swift peak
#

Also not sure your Lord Exec is doing that much here

#

Now that I think about it those could be a blob of Harridans. Or maybe 2 x 10

#

You can trigger Harridans at will with Reikenor

sharp jasper
#

Its such awkward point costing

swift peak
#

It is

#

But sometimes high end lists land at 1970

I've seen high end lists land on 1950 too
