A 2,998-point force places Ashktar on a Terrorgheist above a broad infantry host supported by Necromancers, a Wight King, a Tomb Banshee and two Cairn Wraiths. The accompanying plan uses replenishable blocks to hold enemies, Ethereal heroes to inflict damage safely against ordinary weapons, and Grave Guard or the Varghulf to finish important fights. Dire Wolves hunt war machines while the Ghoul King combines magical support with the Terrorgheist’s ranged scream.

He recommends using speed to choose isolated targets and matching the investment in mounted heroes to the size of the cavalry force. Heroic Moves, support from mounted Wizards and careful management of priority are central to preserving momentum.

Heavy cavalry can form an arrowhead around a strong mounted hero, with supporting riders and a banner turning a breach into a sequence of Heroic Combats. An army built around the charge needs reserves and cheaper heroes to keep movement under control after the first impact. The article also explains how terrain, countercharging mounted models and defensive shielding can blunt an opposing cavalry attack, using Morgul Knights and Imrahil’s Dol Amroth force as examples.
