Introduction
- Murderhost is a very agro list, you generally lose 70-90% of your army.
- Not for players that get frustrated by removing their own models, if this is you, then sorry this army is not for you.
- If you want to learn about other armies pro’s and con’s at the table then play this army.( more below )
- My Murderhost has 5 Warscrolls :Very low warscroll count , this is part of the reason it win sometimes.
- No spells
- No shooting
- Just the hero phase, movement and combat.
- Warscrolls which are very simple to use,
- Simple deployment
- It has an Alpha strike,
- Deals out Mortal wounds
- 6 unbinds
- 1 automatic table top unbind.
ALL Players know that you can be at a disadvantage if the dice go the wrong way
But
You can lose a game by making a single mistake or compound it by trying to correct it.
IE On Deployment,
unit’s attacking order,
movement of a unit etc
This army will smash into the opponent army and win if your opponent make ‘that’ deployment error, which you are looking for at setup.
The opponent from this point ( has lost a lot of his models ) will be mental shaken, if not even before.
They know they are going to lose models and have their magic shutdown for the first turn at least.
Because Murderhost only has a few warscrolls you only have to think about your opponent warscrolls and abilities, so when they make mistakes its ‘very’ clear to Murderhost player.
I generally tell my opponents that my turn one is a kick to the nuts.
Allegience Ability
- I just use the auto dispel(early game) and summoning(late game).

Heroes
Bloodmaster- One job, get the Bloodletters across the table, and then die
Bloodsercator- Always try to put him out of sight and on terrain.
Priest –Plus one to Bloodletters
Other Units
or heros instead of the priest (+1 to hit hmm).
