From atop the morbid Coven Thrones, a Vampire Lady and her acolytes mark the most intriguing foes. Those chosen are beguiled even as they are torn asunder, their blood drained into a mystical font and used to scry the tangled paths to victory.

Red Banqueters
A Coven Throne is a single model ridden by a Vampire Lady armed with a Predatory Bite and Stiletto.
MOUNT: This model’s Spectral Host attacks with their Spectral Claws and Blades.
COMPANION: This model is accompanied by Handmaidens who attack with their Needlesharp Poniards. For rules purposes, they are treated in the same manner as a
mount.
The Hunger: Soulblight creatures crave the taste of blood and are empowered when they drink deep from the veins of defeated foes.
At the end of the
combat phase, if any enemy models were slain by wounds inflicted by this model’s attacks in that phase, you can
heal up to D3 wounds allocated to this model.
Frightful Touch: The malign spirits that surround the Coven Throne can freeze an opponent’s blood with a single touch.
If the unmodified
hit roll for an attack made with this model’s Spectral Claws and Blades is 6, that attack inflicts 1
mortal wound on the target and the attack sequence ends (do not make a
wound or save roll).
Scrying Pool: Within this pool of shimmering, enchanted gore, the Vampire Lady foresees the shape of the battle to come.
Once per turn, you can re-roll 1
hit roll or 1
wound roll for an attack made by this model or 1
save roll for an attack that targets this model.
This model is a
WIZARD. It can attempt to
cast 1 spell in your
hero phase and attempt to
unbind 1 spell in the enemy hero phase. It knows the
Arcane Bolt,
Mystic Shield and
Shudder spells.
Shudder: Staring into their eyes, the caster clouds her prey’s mind and instils fear into their heart.
Shudder has a
casting value of 6. If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within 12" of the caster that is visible to them and roll 3D6. If the roll is greater than that unit’s Bravery characteristic, this model cannot be picked to be the target of any attacks made, spells cast or abilities used by that unit until your next
hero phase.
Tactical Insight: The Vampire Lady and her Handmaidens employ their divinatory abilities to manipulate and aid their undying servants.
You can use this
command ability at the start of your
hero phase. If you do so, pick 1 friendly
SOULBLIGHT GRAVELORDS unit wholly within 12" of this model. Until your next hero phase, add 1 to
hit rolls and wound rolls for attacks made by that unit and add 1 to
save rolls for attacks that target that unit. The same unit cannot benefit from this command ability more than once per phase.
