Anyone used the new wraiths? Which ones are good, bad etc. I am converting some of them for my future Hunter Orc army and I wanted to know which ones to do.

I unfortunately haven't but I wanted to mention something. Idk how many people will have tried em. I may be totally wrong but for me....I wouldn't use those in a competitive win. It's such a risk.

I may be remembering the stats wrong but aren't they one wound and they can immediately vanish with a bad dice roll??

They have a very chance of resurecting when you kill them. Yes, they have one wound. You would probably use at least 2 or 3 at a time.

I haven't used them, and in all honesty I didn't read their rules until this past weekend, but they look really interesting and potentially very powerful. If memory serves, they've been FAQed to be able to might that resurrection roll.

Are you looking at having them with the Necromancer or just having one or two in an otherwise Hunter Orc army?

I'm not sure yet. As to Hunter Orcs, how good are they? Also, is their army bonus useful enough to use them only in Azog's Hunter's?

Well, the Necromancer makes the Wraiths pretty much indestructible, so that's the more obvious way to go. Have them lead whatever combination of Hunters and Gundabads you like.

I've only ever used Hunter Orcs allied with Morannons and I love the way they play there. For the Azog's Hunters army rule, again, I've never used it, but it gives you the option to spam decent archers that can mop up in combat. If you take Bolg, it's less archery spam but they're just a little bit more scary against heroes and monsters, and a lot more scary in general because Bolg. See what suits you and try it out.
