8" 2 4+ 1 In life, the Myrmourn Banshees sought arcane power for their own ends, failing to pay proper respect to the Great Necromancer. In death, they are cursed to consume magic with a horrible hunger, yet they can never use it themselves nor ever be sated. Wherever such energy blooms, the Myrmourn Banshees are drawn in like carrion feasters. Each of these spirits is burdened with a fiendish appetite for the arcane; they devour mystical energies as a starving mortal does a platter of fresh meat, but it is never enough for them.
Blind to all but the glow of aetheric power, flights of Myrmourn Banshees hurtle through the skies while shrieking their bitter torment. They are all but immune to arrows, bolts and sword blows, but when an enemy commander eventually uses magical energy to deal with them, they laugh in hideous glee and stretch their jaws wide to devour it. Upon doing so, a Myrmourn Banshee’s attacks become more frenzied and violent, fuelled by the tantalising power of the spell they consumed. Such exhilaration burns out quickly, driving them onward to seek out their next feast. | ||

When moving flying units, move them horizontally in any direction, ignoring intervening models and terrain, and place them where you wish, so long as they are allowed to end their move on that spot. Note that some units have the FLY keyword even if that unit can’t really fly. This often represents units that bounce, bound or skitter across the battlefield so adeptly that they might as well be flying! | ||

In some cases, it might not be immediately clear whether a model is visible. If so, stoop down to get a look from behind the observing model. If any part of the other model is visible, even if it is just the tip of a spear, then that model is visible for rules purposes. | ||
