I wonder if you will be able to field units of 10 when the Undead lists are updated.
Having just been at the open day the answer is yes.

I like Wraiths for the 20" charge.  However the counter-charge can really wreck them due to only having Nerve 2.  Three damage and they are dying on 9+.  They need to be used very carefully.

Sadly, Alessio wasn't too keen on the idea of Wraith hordes...

I'm sure if you send him enough emails, he will change his mind!

Wraiths are a must have for my Undead. I've played with and against them.

With them, I as so many of you do, run them down flanks- or even stright up the middle shielding them behind more stable units, until their 20" charge and Fly ability get's them knocking out war machines and enemy characters.

Playing aginst them, (I was using Elves) I found myself all too aware of their dangerousness- and may well have spent a bit too much attention on them (for very little payback cos of that 6+ Def)- the upshot is I pretty much got wiped out by two units of 5x Wraiths, Mhorgoth and the Balefire Catapult(!)

My opinion? Wraiths rock! and they will always feature in my Vampire army!
