In life, those who were to become Grimghast Reapers were careful and meticulous killers. In death, they never cease in their long, sweeping strokes that mercilessly cut the enemy down, and they never tire. This horrifying Assault unit moves quickly, travelling in convulsive bursts that are the very antithesis of the graceful movements of the living.

These intimidating Assault units dominate the frontline of the battle with their savage scythes. You can use the Grimghast Reapers’ Reaping Charge to race toward the enemy, locking them in combat until backup arrives. The charge also softens the defence of all nearby units, weakening them for your Nighthaunt army’s assault.

• You can upgrade Grimghast Reapers with Wave of Terror, increasing their attack speed for every unit nearby with the same upgrade.
• Use the Reaping Charge to deal significant damage to a particular enemy and leave their armour reduced, along with the armour of every enemy nearby.
