Editing Age of Sigmar/Tactics/Death/Soulblight Gravelords (section)

====Named Characters====
Nagash and Soulblight named characters with a dynasty (save the Cursed City characters) all have a special rule that allows them to be treated as general in addition to the one that you choose in an army of their dynasty (or any of them for Nagash). You can use this to your advantage if you want to utilize the generic command abilities, or in certain battle plans.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Nagash.pdf Nagash]'''(950 pts): The supreme lord of the undead is now a whopping 950. He gets access to all spells in whichever Death faction he joins, giving him a good versatile selection for him to use. Note that due to his status as supreme lord of the undead, he's able to work with any dynasty though he won't gain any allegiance abilities aside from the spell lores.
** He also gained a bit of a perk from the 2021 balance battletome, granting a command ability that lets him give a nearby '''DEATH''' unit +1 to their ward save.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Neferata.pdf Neferata, Mortarch of Blood]''' ('''Legion of Blood''', 365 pts): A lot more direct compared to Manny, and by necessity. Not only can she heal more from killing compared to the average vampire, but she also has a weapon that can insta-kill a model.  She also has two tricks that really help her army.  First is her command ability, which gives enemy melee attacks within 12" of her -1 to hit with the range now unaffected by how many wounds she takes.  Her signature spell also make a friendly unit immune to negative save modifiers; that's right, not rend, but negative save modifiers.  Have her cast this and Mystic Shield on Blood Knights for a 2+ unrendable save.  This makes her a viable strongpoint for Legion of Blood armies, but also a visible target.   

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Mannfred_von_Carstein.pdf Mannfred Von Carstein, Mortarch of Night]''' ('''Legion of Night''', 380 pts): The lord of assholes returns, just as dangerous as before. While he's still pretty dangerous between his own weapons and his beastly mount, his role remains being an elusive prick who bounces across the field to pick off the weak bits. Not only can he fly, but he can also redeploy wherever he wants once he's stuck in combat. The moment he kills something with his sword, he can then boost a {{AOSKeyword|Summonable}} unit, and this can stack with his command ability so his lackeys can fight on without his direct intervention. 

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Prince_Vhordrai_2021.pdf Prince Vhordrai]'''('''Kastelai''', 455 pts): Has had a nerf to Breath of Shyish being a flat 6 MW is now D6 and also now is only usable on a 3+ without the previous modifier of +1 if Vhordrai had slain an enemy model in the previous combat phase. Has had a buff to Bloodlance Charge much the same as VLoZD +1 dmg and added 1 rend and buff to The Hunger being D3 instead of 1. Of note he retains Chalice of Blood which VLoDZ did lose and still retains his Command Ability Fist of Nagash and his Spell Quickblood. Overall Kastelai players may prefer using him over a VLoDZ for the extra few points until AOS 3.0 reveals the new Command Abilities for Generals.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Belladamma_Volga.pdf Belladamma Volga, First of the Vyrkos]'''('''Vyrkos''', 200 pts): Though she can't fly, she's very fast and comes with a whirlwind of attacks thanks to her pet wolves. She's best run with some dire wolves, who can act as her meatshields as well as benefiting from her command ability (which lets them pile in an additional +3", meaning their engagement range is 6"). Also helpful is that she's a powerful wizard with two special spells, one that deals MWs and replaces the slain models with Dire Wolves, and the other making the target friendly unit deal double the hits on a 6+ to hit roll. If you plan on playing her, keep her behind plenty of dire wolves, and grab someone else if you plan on supporting the rest of your legions.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Radukar_The_Wolf.pdf Radukar, The Wolf]'''('''Vyrkos''', 150 pts) now no longer needs to be taken as a complete set with all the other cursed city models so could be brought in on his own. Though a good beatstick you might just be better off just bringing his beast mode variant, as you can't bring them both.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Gorslav_The_Gravekeeper.pdf Gorslav the Gravekeeper]'''('''Vyrkos''', 75 pts): An absolute steal for any <b>DEADWALKER</b> focused Vyrkos force. Has the ability to bring a half-size version of any destroyed <b>SUMMONABLE DEADWALKER</b> unit (not limited to zombies, so bring the dogs back, too!) to the table, without relying on a chance die roll. His dirt-cheap price means it's incredibly easy for him to bring more points to the table than it cost to bring him. 7 wounds with a 3+ dump-it-on-a-zombie save makes him quite tanky, and some solid shovel swings makes him a decent combat character. In addition, his own <b>DEADWALKER</b> keyword makes it really easy to trigger the -2 bravery debuff. Don't leave home without him!

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Torgillius.pdf  Torgillius the Chamberlain]'''('''Vyrkos''', 115 pts): A Vyrkos dedicated Deathmage, and Radukar the Wolf's BFF. 10 points cheaper than a standard Necromancer at the cost of trading the amazing Vanhel's Danse Macabre for his own identical-but-strangely-harder-to-cast version of Overwhelming Dread, and a less reliable but non-conditional ward save. Has the potential to generate an extra CP if he's within 3" of Radukar the Wolf, but that proximity means that one of them is not where they should be on the battlefield.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Watch_Captain_Halgrim.pdf  Watch Captain Halgrim]'''('''Vyrkos''', 80 pts): A Kirkland-brand budget Wight King. Trades giving a unit of skellies re-rolling 1's to hit to instead give 3 {{AOSKeyword|Deathrattle}} units a guaranteed 4" run. If you are running a heavy {{AOSKeyword|Deathrattle}} list he can be an interesting budget hero that actually fights reasonably well. Not as much utility as some other hero options but cheap enough to consider as a support hero.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Radukar_The_Beast.pdf Radukar, The Beast]'''('''Vyrkos''', 315 pts): Wow what a real melee beatstick this dude is! Can run and charge same turn, 3+/3+ 12 attacks -1 rend 2 dmg or d3 dmg with Piercing Blade (Bloodslick Claws able to do 2x MWs on 6s), pseudo in built Gryph Feather Charm -1 to hit, the generic "The Hunger" all Vampire Lords seem to have now and 12 wounds make him quite tanky as well. His CP abilities are pretty nuts too able to give a bubble of +1 attack to all Soulblight Gravelord units within 18" of him if he made a charge in that turn, notice how it says keyword "Soulblight Gravelords" this actually makes your Blood Knights very frightening with Radukar being able to keep up with them quite nicely being able to run and charge same turn. Summoning 10 Dire Wolves within 12" of him once per battle also quite a neat trick good for outflanking/capturing points but slightly limiting with the 12" bubble and 9" away from enemies. Very amazing points cost for the utility he provides. Also of note Curse City heroes/Radukar the Wolf cannot be in the same army as Radukar the Beasts lore is after Cursed City.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Kritza.pdf Kritza, The Rat Prince]'''('''Vyrkos''', 95 pts): Largely a cheaper Vampire Lord, Kritza trades off a point of armour for an extra wound, and swaps spellcasting for a -1 th hit in melee against him and a rather impressive ability to, when slain, be set up again elsewhere on a 4+ role, making him relatively resilient despite also lacking 'The Hunger'.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Lady_Annika.pdf Annika, The Thirsting Blade]'''('''Vyrkos''', 110 pts): Another lord equivalent, Annika also swaps armor for wound, and her spellcasting for 4+ wound negation and completely healing all wounds when she slays a model instead of d3.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Lauka_Vai.pdf Lauka Vai, The Mother of Nightmares]''' ('''Avengorii''', 285 pts): The new monster as a hero, acting a named vengorian lord. She's very potent, acting as combat superiority between her spell nerfing enemy charges and her aura nerfing enemy rending. She's meant to be crushing the enemy, with a charge bonus like the mounted vampire lord, and the chance to run and charge on the same turn - though this is at the cost of her command ability, which influences friendly monsters.

*'''[https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_Prince_Duvalle.pdf Prince Duvalle] & [https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/Eng_The_Crimson_Court.pdf The Crimson Court]''' (200 pts): Duvalle is pretty gimped for a vampire, lacking flight or any weapons aside from his sword, though he also comes with a unique spell useful for zeroing in on an enemy unit. His court aren't quite as durable, though one acts as a beef wall and they can effectively hop through terrain so they can kill whoever Duvalle targets.
