Their single-minded purpose seems to be the pursuit of those evil men who have cheated their rightful fate, for a Hexwraith's shade-like existence leaves it with a hunger that only the succour of a damned soul can sate. Once the curse of the Hexwraiths has been laid upon their prey, there can be no escape - the spectral horsemen can hurtle across rivers and pass through mountainsides on their incorporeal steeds without slowing their headlong charge. In recent years, the Vampires of Sylvania have learned to bind these creatures of shadow to their service, using them as weapons of war. The sight of a pack of cackling Hexwraiths approaching fast, spirit scythes held high and unnatural soul-fires flickering from their eye sockets, is enough to chill the blood of even the most seasoned warrior. It is small wonder that these deathly riders are amongst the most feared of all the minions of the Vampire Counts. ==Attributes== *'''[[File:Vmp_cavalry_scythe.png]]Cavarly''' {{wh_dlc04_vmp_cav_chillgheists_0 bulletpoints}} ==Strategy== {{strategy}} Hexwraiths with a significant slow ability around them that allows them to catch a target and keep them locked in with them. The unit also has improved melee stats and leadership which help make it an effective combatant. However, the increase in cost only makes them a better target for magical damage, so beware. Notably, they lose the fire damage of standard Hexwraiths and so only do magic damage. {{Navbox Vampire Counts units}} [[Category:Total War: Warhammer units]] [[Category:The Grim and the Grave units]] [[Category:Regiments of Renown]] [[Category:Vampire Counts units]] [[Category:Vampire Counts melee cavalry units]] [[Category:Vampire Counts Regiments of Renown]]
