Speed! Think about, most undead forces consists of lots of shambling minions and the flanks being guarded with black knights and other support units. What if superior speed and raw cc power became the army focus? But with the magic umpf to back it up?
So here is my \\\"Flying Blade\\\" Necrarch list. Your thoughts or criticisms please.
Count = 358
w/ Lvl. 2, Noble Blood, Crown of the Damned, Barded steed, (either Sword of Might, Cynosure or Forbidden Lore . . .have not decided yet)
wraith = 152

necromancer = 150
w/ Lvl. 2, book of arkhan, dispel scroll
Wight Lord = 132

(2) 5x Fell bats = 200

I wouldn't take the crown on your count. With only Ld9, it's too risky IMHO. Give him a ROTN and SoM.
I like the wraith kit. Put him in a wraith train and snipe away :D
I decided to go with the sword of might on my count. I think RoN is overpriced, besides I think I can keep stupidity at bay.
thanks for the responce, I\'ll have fun with my wraith train!
\"I\'m going off the rails on this wraith train!\"
I intend to play some battles this weekend with my new army idea. Let you know how it turns out.

7 PD in a Necrarch army?? That's as many as I have in my BD force. Which, to tell the truth, is not enough to have an influential magic phase against at least 50% armies I face....
Unit selection is fine but I would really consider a second necromancer.
The wraith cant take the rod of flaming death becasue it is an arcan item if im not mistaken. So instead give that the cursed book instead.
The rod is enchanted. The wraith can take it.
Alright Mortis cheers for that i didn't know that but i would still drop the wraith for another necro
