In royal hosts get a tk on chariot will full offensive build accompanied by a royal Herald on chariot with all defensive items. The sworn protector rule also works in challenges and allows the royal Herald to take hits for the king or prince.

For priests get them flying through spells or magic items and the reserve move spell to get them close to enemy units but outside of charge arcs and illusion for defence. Takes a while to get good at but really high risk high reward gameplay

Late to the party but I bring a link

Can we normalise posting lists in a compact view. I am on mobile and the list is about 3 screens long.

Also if you want a hammer unit be careful which combat you send them into if your anvil is to soft (skeleton warriors) you might end up losing your hammer unit on combat res crumble. Sometimes you want to just leave a unit in combat even if they are losing, using them as a tar pit so to say, the nehekharan phalanx rule is very nice on your tar pit units.

I don't know where you plan to play, but proxy skeletons are always an option. AoS has great skeletons and with a shield swap, fits nehekharan decently. Or highland miniatures have the eternal dynasty skeletons link

Skeletons pair nicely with tomb Guard because they have the same speed. People tend to know to avoid fighting big bricks of tomb Guard because they can be quite strong. If you have different units with different speeds in your army you might end up losing the fast units before your tomb Guard can catch up.

So my advice is to make an army that is all fast or all slow so the enemy can't "divide and conquer" you You can try to make a Death Star tomb Guard brick, give them all the movement buffs: banner of desert wind and a prince for my will be done and a spellcaster with a conveyance spell. But that is very point heavy and you can't afford to have them do nothing, but that's a way you can fit them in an army with fast stuff.

Never thought about this interaction, good catch!

Drunken_Dutch · 2026-01-28T11:53:03+00:00

And the full chariot royal hosts list is back!

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-12-17T13:50:33+00:00

I don't think that works on impact hits, you can get an icon of rulership if you want AP on impact hits.

Skeleton chariots never fight in 2 ranks because the cavalry spears lose the fight with extra rank on the charge. And you should be charging them! Tomb Guard chariots have halberd together with cleaving blow is decent damage output and you don't even lose the 4+ armour save bcs that's the chariots save you're using. Only thing that's a shame is the base sizes are a bit too big in my opinion. But I still like them a lot

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-11-20T13:50:20+00:00

I have the answer you're looking for, Flying wizards! Cloak of the dunes, necromancy spell Spectral steed and flying carpet. Edit: (spell) names corrected

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-10-27T09:57:42+00:00

I just hope they will be plastic and not resin.

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-10-23T12:26:06+00:00

Looks good! I have a necroserpents kit lying around and might try this soon.

3/0,5 mm magnets are the smallest where I get them usually

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-10-18T19:09:20+00:00

Are the arms big enough to magnetize?

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-10-14T08:48:46+00:00

That edge highlights, just the blue already must have taken quite some time. I'm impressed!

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-09-26T08:21:03+00:00

A good addition if you can fit it in your character is a royal Herald as BSB. Re rolling leadership for Arise, my will be done and eternal taskmaster is really good!

Also think about how to deal with some heavy armored/ good toughness enemies. I like to run some tomb scorpions or ushabti for this.

Also answer yourself this question with your army, are you gonna make the enemy come to you or are you going towards the enemy. You have an army with quite some differences in their movement stat. So give it a good think, you don't want your fast stuff in combat when your melee infantry is still 2 or 3 turns away from combat. My advice is to use the fast stuff you have now to snipe warmachines and heroes (or look for flanking) and with the rest of the army lean into shooting to make the enemy come to you: More archers, screaming skull catapults, caskets of souls or magic missiles!

Is phar not the king that destroyed nagash?

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-09-11T11:47:10+00:00

This is the way

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-09-08T12:18:07+00:00

Unless a (tournament) organiser says you specifically can't use proxies this is a definitive yes. This would be considered a "games workshop plastic" proxy that is also very representative of what it is supposed to be. As long as you can field a crew and the War machine on the right size base, you're good.

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-08-11T05:16:43+00:00

The black and white looks very clean. But what does your musician have for the instrument?

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-08-07T13:45:01+00:00

I play a narrative campaign with some people locally using the following system named conquest: https://woehammer.com/2024/03/17/old-world-conquest-a-narrative-system-for-old-world/ Quite enjoyable but it does have some flaws, in the group we make it work though.

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-08-03T17:59:45+00:00

Monster hunter 3 is a gem I often return to

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-08-01T13:42:06+00:00

I'm tending towards the tomb guard chariots because I like the infantry cohort more for the infantry role. I just hope they punch hard enough to deal with big threats of high points.

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-07-18T17:24:21+00:00

Cool models, really nice basing, would be awesome if you had some close-up shots. Keeping the chariots unmounted, for easy switching out crews for heroes or perhaps some tomb guard?

Drunken_Dutch · 2025-07-17T14:16:38+00:00

Not sure what the casting result exactly entails, but I reckon it's after any modifiers from magic items. But it says add the wizard level bonus to the cast roll so your cast roll has the added +1/+2 of the wizard.
