I have finally played a number of matches and got a feel of how the game plays. I am going to try out these 2 list in the next week, I have 25 and 35pt versions for both but was wanting to see if anyone recognized any glaring weaknesses that i may be overlooking.
All I can think off is adding some Paingiver Beast Handlers, otherwise two very solid lists. With the Mordikaar list I would personaly field one full unit of Praetorian Swordsmen with their unit attachment. With the Swordsmen under the effects of Hollow & Void Lord from the Warlock combined with the Perfect Strike mini-feat, Overtake and Practiced Maneuvers from the UA they can wipe out any single wound infantry unit in the game and give most multi-wound units a severe beating.
With only one unit being able to benifit from Mordikaars' party trick at a time, I personaly would bring just the one full unit of infantry over two smaller units. Apart from the concentration of force and the additional options granted by the UA taking just one unit forces your opponents to concentrate their attacks on the unit that gives Mordikaar extra fury when they die.

ok thats very insightfull, thank you alexander. The only reason i did 2 units was to because it gave the same number of troops as a full+ua, but it also allow me a free void spirit. Thank you for the advice.
I did more homework and figured out that one trick with hollow wouldnt work, hollow makes units undead, essance blast only works on living models.
The trick I was refering to was the benifits of Hollow on a unit combined with the boosted attack rolls from Void Lord. Essence Blast is a good spell and a great option to finish off a Warlock, Warcaster or the last remnants of a unit that your Swordsmen or a Warbeast has charged but I don't see it as Mordikaars main party trick. When Hollow and Void Lord get combined with his feat; this makes for a very buffed unit that will be hard to deal with for that turn with def 16, poltrigiest, tough & if they do kill a model Mordikaar gains a fury point.

I must read up on the rules because I must be missing something. Void Lord-"While in this models control area,friendly Void Spirit Models gain boosted melee attack rolls" Correct me if I am wrong but Hollow only gives them tough and undead, it doesnt make them Void Spirits.
I think paddy is the one missing something, or mistakenly citing the wrong rule.
As you say Riozaki, Void lord only affect Void spirit models, nothing else.
- But I don't want to go among mad people.
- You can't help that, we're all mad here...

Ah, I'm reading an older version of the rule where Void Lord effects any undead friendly models. Old Pdf from the playtest. My bad.
