 |  2,000 pts Vampire Counts Going for a bit of a magic heavy slant, but still trying to keep a balanced list 1 Lord w/ extra level, Master of the Black Arts, Dark Acolyte, Lord of the Dead, Flayed Hauberk, Skull Staff 445 1 Vampire w/ Summon Ghouls, Dark Acolyte, Book of Arkhan, Enchanted Shield 195 1 Vampire w/ Summon Ghouls, Dark Acolyte, Sceptre de Noirot, dispel scroll 195 20 Skeletons w/ spears, full command, Banner of the Dead Legion 225 20 Ghouls w/ Ghast 168 20 Ghouls w/ Ghast 168 6 Dire Wolves 48 6 Dire Wolves 48 1 Corpse Cart w/ Unholy Lodestone 100 6 Black Knights w/ full command, Banner of the Barrows 229 1 Varghulf Not too sure if a champ with the Black Knights is necessary to be honest. Also i would have preferred regular grave guard to black knights, but figured i needed a bit more movement. What do you guys think? |

| Re: 2,000 pts Vampire Counts sorry for this post (i hate bumping stuff), but does anyone have any opinions on this list? Stitch? God Grinder? Steve? anyone? hell, i'd even take opinions from Krom and Mart at this stage! the reason i am so desperate for a response is that i am building the army to the list, so i need to have the list sorted ahead of time to ensure i have everything i need, and nothing i don't! |

| Re: 2,000 pts Vampire Counts I was thinking a mounted wight lord to accompany the black knights give him sword of kings and flayed hauberk. or take Vlad and watch your opponent cry as he is once again brought back to life.......... you seriously need some combat heavy heroesto break the deadlocks between combats.

| Re: 2,000 pts Vampire Counts personally i think that vampires are more important than Wight Lords in this version - last time around, only the general could keep the army marching, so not taking as many vamps wasn't as big a deal - now though, they keep the army moving, and spending my points and character slots on Wight Lords seems a waste to me. i have tweaked the list somewhat in the last week - this is what i have come up with: 1 Lord w/ extra level, Master of the Black Arts, Forbidden Lore, Lord of the Dead, Flayed Hauberk, Skull Staff, Biting Blade 455 1 Vampire w/ Summon Ghouls, Dark Acolyte, Book of Arkhan, Cadaverous Cuirass 195 1 Vampire w/ Summon Ghouls, Dark Acolyte, Sceptre de Noirot 170 19 Skeletons w/ spears, full command, Banner of the Dead Legion 216 19 Ghouls w/ Ghast 160 19 Ghouls w/ Ghast 160 5 Dire Wolves 40 5 Dire Wolves 40 1 Corpse Cart w/ Unholy Lodestone 100 6 Black Knights w/ full command, Banner of the Barrows 229 3 Fell Bats 60 1 Varghulf 175 Total 2,000 not much of a change, but i added some armour to one of the vamps, added fell bats and switched Dark Acolyte for Forbidden Lore on the lord - i also gave him the biting blade - one opponent this army will face is Wood Elves, so the cheap magic item denies forest spirits their saves and against normal saves incurs a -3 modifier! |
