Morghast Archai

First of all at the time of writing I've reached 666 page views, which I find quite amusing considering most of my armies consist of demons or the undead.

Speaking of undead I picked up a box of morghast archai (alternatively could have been built as harbingers) today.  At first thought I thought a tad expensive for two miniatures.  That thought instantly dissolved once I saw the size of them.  They're huge.  Also if you don't have the rules for them (I do), then they are conveniently in the instruction booklet, well played GW, well played indeed.

On to the pictures.
 The obligatory box shot (get your mind out the gutter)


 You get three sprues in the box and you use most of the bits.  I've only got the single handed cleavers, a pair of rib cages and the alternate glaive heads left.
These guys are big.  They're on the same base as the new  treeman. Don't they look f*****g awesome.


 I appear to have made it into this shot.
 Dude number 1.



And dude number 2.

I assembled them as archai for two reasons.  They look cooler and they seem to be far more points efficient.  They can be a wee bit fiddly but I think they're worth they effort.  I think the bases much like Nagash's need a little something to break up that flat area, some rubble or a grave stone, maybe even a zombie.  The morghasts are must have for anyone running a vampire counts or undead legions army.  I also think that any chaos players (daemons, warriors or chaos marines) should consider these too.  I'm quite tempted to pick up another box and slap them on round bases.
