I find it interesting that so many think her overpriced. The Nightmare Scenario only goes off 25% of the time, and is influenced by the opponent's drafting choices and figure placement. For instance, it doesn't do any good to NS Drake, if Drake is engaged with a bunch of enemies but there's no friendlies nearby.
Most of the units with friendly adjacency buffing powers actually have fairly mediocre attacks. Finn has an attack of 3, for instance. The NS doesn't even work at range! The same goes for the Romans, Kelda, Grimnak, the Parmenio, etc. The units that NEED to be adjacent are generally cheap and disposable and their stats reflect that.
I think she's perfectly costed as is and would be annoyed if all this naysaying made HEH up her cost, thus making her less viable for a variety of armies.
Morsbane is in no way comparable, the usages of their powers are totally different. Lily can get an extra 2-3 dice attack 25% of the time... making her raw firepower still much less than that of the Tarn Vikings on average! Morsbane completely cripples units, permanently, down to their base stats. Totallly, totally different.
