==Army Building==

Just buy two Start Collecting! boxes to start. That's it, you will get 20 Ghouls, a practically obligatory big monster, three Crypt-ids and a Courtier of your choice, there you have an 900 points army, excluding the additional big monster, which you could use to make a Vampire Lord on Zombie Dragon and a Ghoul King on foot (this last guy will fill your 100 points army perfectly) and two spared Crypt models. Here you have enough saving to buy yet another SC! box, mainly for the extra Ghouls and Crypt guys. From there, you can freely go crazy.

The new nightfeast hunter box is a good deal as well! 20 Ghouls and 3 Crypt for $65 US. Though at this point, the Start Collecting! Box is only a little more, and you'll get the Terrorgheist, but only ten ghouls.

If you chose the Terrorgheist, a good next step would be three boxes Crypt Horrors. Build one as a Crypt Haunter Courtier and the other eight as Crypt Horrors. This supplies you with an Abattoir Battalion, some Crypt Ghasts and a big monster-riding general.

If you chose the Zombie Dragon, you may want to add some Crypt Flayers instead. Have your general summon a new Crypt Infernal Courtier every turn and have them summon Crypt Flayers until all your models are in play.

If you chose to build the foot-slogger, get another such kit asap, build both monsters as Terrorgheists and put the second Ghoul King on the second bat, since normal Terrorgheists profit massively from having a Ghoul King on monster along for the ride.

==="Royal" Air Force===
For competitive play (2000pts) try this list, I've played several battles (vs order and chaos armies) and still have to find this armies adversary.

 - Battlescroll: Deadwatch
   6 Crypt Flayers
   6 Crypt Flayers
   9 Crypt Flayers
   1 Crypt Infernal Coutier
 - Abhorrant Ghoul King on Terrorgheist
 - Varghulf Coutier

This army is fast, all of them fly, regenerates units (flayers) and is full of possible mortal wounds dealing which are quit the deal.
Normal set up would be the 9 flayers in the middle with the 6 flayers each covering its flanks.
the Infernal (who has to be the general in order to make flayers battleline) and the varghulf hug each other and if possible cover behind the 9 flayers for adding losses. The Abhorrant Ghoul King on Terrgheist can be used for support on a flank though keep him close to the frontline for his delicious spell for 5++ save against all kinds of (mortal)wounds. Now with the Deathless minions rules you get for having the Death Allegiance from the Generals Handbook <s>(actually, because you have to have the Flesh-Eater Courts allegiance in order for Flayers to be Battleline, you can't use any of the Death allegiance abilities, you can only pick one allegiance)</s>(see General's Handbook FAQ)(See Also, the thing in the actual Flesh-Eater Courts allegiance concerning Mortal Wounds), you'll have a 6++ (5++ if you choose or roll that one command trait for your general) save against wounds and mortal wounds. Enjoy your '''9 flayers with 5+, 5++, 6++/5++''' with casualty replenishment for each '''5+ on 12 dice''' all the while they deal wounds and mortal wounds '''both in close combat and your hero phases'''! I've seen them tear down Alarielle due to volumes of attacks and those delicious mortal wounds. Watch out for negative modifiers against your flayers (they'll lose the mortal wounds on 6s when they have a -1 to hit) and protect your Infernal and Varghulf!
Negative modifiers do not prevent you from generating mortal wounds with your flayers as the ability states it happens on an unmodified roll of a 6

Beware though, Deadwatch has been massively nerfed, since now only 1 unit of Flayers can attack per hero phase. Don't let it stop you from playing this, but it's definitely weaker than it used to be.

===One SC Army===

Actually you can get your first 980 pts army with one "SC" box and "Endless Spells" box:

Just build your Crypt guys as Crypt Haunter Courtier and Crypt Infernal Courtier. Also you can build your Crypt Ghast Courtier with reamining parts and some green stuff. Choose Gristlegore Grand Court and take your Ghoul king and Terrorgheist separately.

List:

Leaders:
 - Abhorrant Ghoul King(160pts)
 - Crypt Ghast Courtier(60pts)
 - Crypt Haunter Courtier(120pts)
 - Crypt Infernal Courtier(120pts)
Units:
 - 10 Crypt Ghouls(100) -''battleline''
Behemoths:
 - Gristlegore Royal Terrorgheist(300pts) -''battleline''
Endless spells:
 - Chalice of Ushoran(50pts)
 - Corpsemare Stampede(70pts)

'''Total points''':980

Another option is to buy one "SC" box and one Abhorrant Archregent, which can build a 990 points list:

Build one of the ghouls as a Crypt Ghast Courtier. To complete the unit of 10 Crypt Ghouls, either build one from bits and green stuff, or get a single ghoul from eBay or similar. Build the 3 bigger guys as Crypt Flayers, and the behemoth as an Abhorrant Ghoul King on Royal Terrorgheist.

List:

Grand Court: Blisterskin
 - Abhorrant Archregent (240 pts)
 - Abhorrant Ghoul King on Royal Terrorgheist (420 pts)
 - Crypt Ghast Courtier (60 pts)
 - 10x Crypt Ghouls (100  pts) - ''battleline''
 - 3x Crypt Flayers (170 pts) - ''battleline''

'''Total points:''' 990

As a next step, look at getting a Varghulf Courtier. The Abhorrant Archregent can summon it, and it returns slain models to either battleline unit.
