Dominar Rasheth
In an empire known for discipline and precision, it is a rare man who can excel in spite of his unsavory appetites and predilections. Rasheth leads a house well known for its ability to train mighty titan warbeasts, and profits from the recent push for western expansion has allowed him to delve ever deeper into decadence. Too slothful to walk on his own, the Dominar is carried into battle by a team of Agonizers.

Analysis of Dominar Rasheth
Dominar Rasheth in a nutshell
Rasheth is a Cryx-style debuff warlock that messes with the enemy, and comes with channeling abilities. Awful in melee, with luck it doesn't come to that. He's considered possibly Skorne's biggest (literally and figuratively) power caster for a reason, but is very vulnerable to anyone who can reach him. For those who are more familiar with Warmachine factions, he can be considered a slightly weaker version of Warwitch Deneghra, but he also shuts down enemy channeling and in a faction with much better guns than Cryx brings.
Common army selection
Almost anything; his spell selection make it so that he can make almost any model shine. That being said, he doesn't help things defensively, so it's better to not take too many fragile models.
- Fast solos and units to arc through. Paingiver Bloodrunner Master Tormentor, Void Spirit, Paingiver Bloodrunners, and Praetorian Keltarii are good examples; take care to use one that you have other uses for. Venator Slingers aren't that fast but have the advantage of advance deploying.
- Extoller Soulward (who gives Eyeless Sight) and Cyclops Savage (who gives Future Sight) to land spells more easily.
- Croak Raiders or really cheap infantry (like Praetorian Karax) for aimable Breath of Corruption targets.
- Massed ranged attack of decent power. Farrow Brigands and Venator Reivers come to mind, as do Venator Slingers against Warmachine armies.
- Cheap heavies, who can destroy a blood marked target easily. That mean Titan Gladiator and Titan Sentry. Or even the upgraded Rhinodon.
- The Mammoth needs a special mention, because he is hard to get rid of on feat turn and can hide Rasheth handily.
Having at least one shield guard and/or keeping an unit to block charge lane to Rasheth is a prudent, but not strictly necessary, move. Rasheth can prove very fragile.
Drawbacks and Downsides
- Literally the worst caster/lock defensive stats in the game. At least he has a lot of boxes...
- He's very hard to screen on his large base.
- With no weapon, he can't charge. This can cause problems in scenarios with a killbox where he needs to run on turn 1 if going first (or on turn 2) to avoid killboxing himself.
Tricks and Tactics
- If you put Blood mark on an enemy warbeast with full fury, you can't transfer damage to it.
- If you start on a scenario with a killbox, you need to run or get a speed bonus in either first or second turn to not trigger it. The easiest way to get one is the Tyrant Commander.
