Age of Sigmar/Tactics/Death/Ossiarch Bonereapers

Grand Alliance Death Ossiarch Bonereapers

The Skeleton War is upon us! We ride against the fuckboys!

Lore Tactics General Tactics

Armies of well-armored skeleton constructs representing Nagash's ideal for all the realms. They collect bones to make more of them and as tribute for Nagash. Long has Nagash had a bone to pick with Sigmar, and now the time for Bone Daddy's vengeance has come.

Why play Ossiarch Bonereapers?

Pros

• They're SPOOKY SCARY SKELETONS!
• These guys have default, army-wide immunity to Battleshock, baby!
• They're durable, even for undead. On top of tough, well-armored troops they don't rely on heroes for 6+ Deathless saves. Especially if you use the Petrifex Elite Legion.
• Re-rolls out the ass, especially for the Necropolis Stalkers.
• A few pleasant reminders of Nehekhara for you Tomb Kings fans, such as a war machine that hurls flaming skulls.
• The models have multiple options for conversions or poses.
• They collect protection payments of bone like a skeletal version of the Mafia.
• Part of the reason for their existence is to troll Sigmarines.
• Nagash, bro-tier mini-Nagash and the Morghasts are officially part of the army roster.
• Hope you like bone puns...

Cons

• Most of your army is slow, with a few exceptions.
• When you bring 5 guys, almost everybody else brings 10. So if your opponent is on a objective you need to smash him in the knee caps can't smash knee caps, you need them for the tithe... just cut their legs out from under them.
• Some of the models look a bit cheesy or weird.
• Katakros' model looks especially cheesy to some (seriously, a bone bulge?)
• Hope you like bone puns...
