I have some questions on the Terrorgheist's Death Shriek.
• I understand that the deathly shriek is rolled against "the target unit's leadership", however does this take into account either inspiring presence, or any leadership buffs (e.g. the standard of discipline).
• I assume that as it is the VC player rolling (and it is not truly a 'test') there is no impact of a BSB being in range?
• The VC FAQ clarifies that Pha's protection can work as a protection if cast on the unit being 'shrieked', I would therefore assume that Iceshard Blizzard would equally provide protection if cast on the Terrorgheist doing the 'shrieking' (if not in B2B contact) - or am I missing something?

1. Yes, since the Death Shriek special rule does not specify the "Leadership characteristic on the profile" (and let us not go into "unmodified Leadership"). 2. That is correct. 3. As far as I know, there is no such FAQ. On the contrary, an FAQ for the virtually identical Banshee Ghostly Howl specifically denies it:
VC Official Update Version 1.1, p. 1: Q: Do items or spells that affect missile fire have any affect on a Banshee’s Ghostly Howl? (p31) A: No.

Ahh apologies I see that I've been reading a comp pack FAQ (looked like the official one). Okay that's clear then - thank you.

Okay so game last night a terrorgeist charged my paladin and then shrieked him to death.
My opponent wanted to then do a combat reform, but I wasn’t clear he could (as no combat actually took place? - shriek is in the shooting phase) - what do we think ?

He is correct.
BRB Official Update Version 1.9, p.8: Q: If I charge an enemy and they are wiped out before the Close Combat phase, can I choose to either Overrun or Reform From Victory? If I can, when does this occur? (p58) A: Yes. This occurs at the start of the Close Combat phase before any blows have been struck.
