Soulblight Gravelords – Zondara’s Gravebreakers
4" 2 6+ 1 6+ Once a wise Ghurish wizard, Zondara Rivenheart delved into necromantic lore in an attempt to save her beloved Ferlain from a bestial curse. She now blends beast-magic with the energies of death, ransacking crypts, keeps and dungeons in search of a cure. Zondara’s shambling gravediggers are imbued with Ghurish magic, granting them a strength and ferocity beyond that of most animated corpses. They are led by the cursed beast Ferlain, Rivenheart’s illfated former lover, reduced to a frenzied brute who messily dismembers those who threaten his mistress. | ||

15.1 Coherency
Any time a unit is set up or ends a move, it must be in a single group. A unit is considered to be in a coherent group if each model in that unit is within coherency range, measured horizontally, of at least 1 other model in that unit (ignore differences in height between the two models).For the majority of units, coherency range is 1/2", though some units (particularly those with large models with overhanging parts) have a longer coherency range noted on their warscroll for ease of play. While there are 7 or more models in a unit, that unit is considered to be in a coherent group if each model in that unit is within coherency range of at least 2 other models in that unit.
If it is not possible for a unit to end a move in a single coherent group, that move cannot be made.

18.3 Slain Models
The commander of a unit must pick which model(s) in the unit are slain. However, after each slain model is removed, the unit must be in a single coherent group (see 15.1). If this is not possible, continue to remove models, one at a time, until the unit is in a single coherent group. You must remove the fewest models possible to make the unit a single coherent group.FAQ / Errata

3.3 Reinforced Units
When you add a unit to your army roster, you can add it as a reinforced unit. A reinforced unit has twice as many models as its minimum unit size and costs twice as many points. If a unit has a minimum unit size of 1, it cannot be reinforced. In addition, some units with a unit size of more than 1 can not be reinforced. This will be noted on their battle profile.
