Hello All,
So I've had a chance to play test this list against a Dwarf/Chaos army (don't ask
), and it did ridiculously well. So I thought I'd post the list and see what people thought.
Vampire Lord - 440
Red Fury, Infinite Hatred, Dread Knight
Balefire Spike, Walach's Bloody Hauberk, Wristband of Black Gold
Extra Magic Level
Vampire - 195
Dark Acolyte, Summon Ghouls
Helm of Commandment, Nightshroud
Wight King - 150
Sword of Kings, Flayed Hauberk
Battle Standard Bearer
Necromancer - 105
Invocation of Nehek, Vanhel's Danse Macabre
Book of Arkhan
14x Skeletons w/ Std & Music 124 (Vampire here)
15x Ghouls 120
10x Ghouls 80
Corpse Cart w/ Balefire 100 (Necro here)
5x Black Knights w/ Barding, Std & Music + Banner of Dead Legion 189 (Lord here)
19x Grave Guard w/
FC &
GWs + Banner of Barrows 322 (Wight here)
1x Varghulf
Total Points: 2000
Power Dice: 8, Dispel Dice 6, 2 Bound Spells
The way I played it was Grave Guard unit dead center front line with ghoul units on either side. Behind them was the corpse cart and the skeleton unit w/ vampire. That vampire is there to lend were
WS to whichever unit needs it most and to bolster the ghoul units. The necro casts VH on any unit close by for the added punch and Miasma
ASF to help tip combat in my favor.
The Lord w/ his Black Knights takes a flank a does a sweeping arch from one side to the other taking anything down that gets in the way. There's just something scary about 5(potential for 10) S7 flaming attacks with re-roll to hit, and that's not including the
KB from the Knights
.
Now I've amended this list a little. When I played it, I used 4 wraiths + a banshee, but they were a little too squishy for my liking. SO the Varghulf will be my last placement in the deployment and will either be a mage/warmachine hunter or a flank charging support unit for the ghouls.
Thoughts? C&C?
Thanks!
