Unit of the Week: Lychguard

[Tyriks]

I ran ten Novokh Lychguard today with Scythes and a Lord following them for the reroll and the Novokh Warlord Trait giving extra attacks. They were extremely effective, averaging over the game slightly above 100% hit rate with the bonus attacks and rerolls, very reliable wound rates (he had sisters, guard and knights, wounding all but knights on 2+ rerolling 1s). They dropped several retributor squads and characters, a penitent engine and then wrecked a helverin. Ended the game with 9 of the 10 still standing (rather, standing again). They were about the only thing that got anything done for me all game.
