Executioners
Please share your experiences, synergies and uses of your Executioners!
Re: Executioners
love them, they need the 5 up shrine wardsave/or the ring of shadows and either the +1 or triple march banner to get them into combat before they are targetted.
I use beast magic attribute to shift them a few inches extra per turn by putting a cheap wizard into the unit.

Re: Executioners
This going with older edditions, but a unit of 20-25 works wonders. Even if they do not hit first, chances are with Killing Blow and Great Weapons, and a base S4 they will still be standing over the dismembered bodies of your enemies.
Perfect for cavalry and monsters.
Relativly cheap for an eleite. Ten guys 120 points.
Their main drawbacks is standard elf armor (between high and dark is 5+) and the Always Strikes First canciling out Always Strikes Last, so at inititive. ANd their range of banners or the lack there off. Terror or armor piercing do make them good though (AP lets them go throuhg 4 layers of armor), but the selcetion seemed to go down hill after 8th threw most of them away.
No Current eddition experiance as of YET, but they seem to fall under the same killy potential as before.

Re: Executioners
Pack a good punch but die really quick considering that 5+ save is always a 6+ or nothing.
