This week we take a break from the historical and look at the monstrous Grymkin Death Knell battle engine for Hordes from Privateer Press.
The accompanying band plays a hauntingly enticing dirge luring those who would disrespect the dead to their doom.
It's abilities allow it to recover from sustained damage and also prevent enemies from doing the same.
Which warlocks would you pair with the Death Knell?

You had me at “cute little vulture”.
This is a staggering kit. I’m tempted, even as I fear a third Warmahordes faction.
great looking model for a very cool faction.
didn’t no the thing was a resin and metal kit. I actually stop playing warmahordes after first edition when they moved away from metal so this warms the cockles of my heart.
really looking forward to seeing what John does with the army.
The death knell features mainly in the dark menagerie theme force which can be run effectively by all 6 casters. The theme benefit means all non trooper models who can gain corpses start with 1, giving you access to the aura buff from the start of the game. It then collects the corpses from the dreadrot unit you brought, which in turn fuel the armour aura and let you fill up the heavy beasts with corpses to maximize the benefits they receive from the corpse tokens.
