How do you run your Wraithlords? I have a couple that I am in the process of painting and assembling, and have been considering their heavy weapons, assault weapons, and ghostglaive/no ghostglaive. Some thoughts:
Ghostglaive: It seems like Wraithlords have pretty solid assault with their Wraithbone Fists. Good strength, AP, and Damage. Ghostglaives are slightly better on all accounts, though the jump in Strength is the biggest, especially against Dreadnoughts, Rhinos, and most tanks. It also helps against Space Marine statlines a small amount. How often will they see assault against targets that are significantly weaker against Ghostglaives compared to Wraithbone Fists? Seems inexpensive but potentially only situationally useful. However: highly cool-looking!
Assault Weapons: It seems to me that Flamers are potentially not price performant given the price jump over Shuriken Catapults. Getting 7 auto-hits vs 2.7 hits on average is nice, but no rending and the high price make it seem not worth it to me.
Heavy Weapons: So you can run without these entirely and just have a Wraithlord with a Ghostglaive running down the field. That sounds pretty cool (and would be relatively cheap). Also, you don't have to worry about heavy weapon movement penalties if you have no heavy weapons! Seems like Shuriken Cannons might potentially be good in such a situation as well. I've been considering 2x BL Wraithlord these days and wondering if one of those just sitting around shooting BLs would be useful. However, if you're paying all these points for a Wraithlord frame, it might not be efficient to sit in the back and shoot. And moving loses some firepower.
Some loadouts that might be cool:
Wraithlord with 2x Shuriken Catapult, 1x Ghostglaive: cheap, has a Ghostglaive, probably looks pretty cool. Not sure if actually good.
Wraithlord with 2x Shuriken Catapult, 2x Bright Lance: For providing Bright Lances and maybe helping out as counter-assault in an anvil or firebase part of the army.
What have you tried? What do you think will be good?
