== Unit Analysis ==
=== Special Characters ===
* [[Tyrion]], Avatar of [[Khaine]]: Your number one asskicker, if you follow the fluff, and he's not too abysmal at acting the part of the murder-machine on the tabletop, either. For 700 points, you're getting a cavalry character with ''maxed'' Weapon Skill, Initiative and Leadership, 5 attacks, and a magical weapon that ignores armor and inflicts D6 automatic wounds per successful strike. In addition the Widowmaker is immune to spells and magic items that destroy magic gear just in case some uppity mage thinks of trying to break his weapon, though it's rules can be taken away/made mundane or it can be stolen through the Nikkit Nikkit spell (so don't take him against Goblins). On the other hand, 1+ armor save, 4+ ward save and Fireborn aside, he's a bit on the squishy side (T4, 5 Wounds), so, as always, watch the fuck out for cannons and other armor-piercing attacks! Summon the Glorious Dead, his bound spell, is kind of gimmicky, but if you want to bring along some Loremasters or Sorceresses (or their lordly counterparts) packing the Lore of Undeath, it could be handy. He has Frenzy and a bubble aura of rerolling failed to wound rolls; Frenzy is both good and bad in that you get an extra attack but can be lead on a wild goose chase by a great eagle. Given his movement of 10 however he has a pretty good chance of successfully charging more often than not unless the enemy are right on the edge of your movement limit. He'll mutilate [[Malekith]] in his original and [[Phoenix King]] incarnations, especially the latter thanks to his upgraded Ward save against Fire attacks, but Malekith the Eternity King will probably beat him in a fair fight. So don't fight fair.
* [[Morathi]]: She's the only special caster character that you have in this army. Luckily, she's one of the better ones. She hasn't changed from her days in the Dark Elf codex, so that means her usefulness remains the same.
* Lokhir Fellheart: 
* Korhil:
