and even Fear from D8 would be more effective

I'm not kidding. In some MP game a while back, my large(Abysian?) army - that would have won - was routed by Onyx Amazon undead mounts (that come with fear). They had a Death blessing, raising them to Fear +4 or Fear +5. I would have won against any other blessing...
Black Templars with Fear -1 or Fear +0 would be very effective against low-morale militia. Only Earth could be as good, as their only enemy is fatigue. But hopelessly outnumbered by militia, fear is the only hope. Ever seen a D10 Prince of Death with a Horror Helmet take on indies? Often they kill one enemy, and the rest rout...
Granted, Death blessings are situational (and generally bad). But they can be awesome versus low-morale troops.
