500 points isn't much to work with but here is what I came up with.

Vampire with Lord of the dead, Avatar of death, Nightshroud, and Black periapt
170 points

10x Skeleton spearmen with FC and the Banner of hell fire.
120 points

10x Skeleton Spearmen with FC
110 points

Corpsecart with unholy lodestone
100points

Total: 500

I dont collect Vampires, so dont know what much of the stuff does but it looks like it could get shot apart easily. Perhaps swap some of lords stuff for more skeletons? Or does that stuff make him uber amazing?

Tactic: use cart to engage missile troops ASAP (im presuming its relatively fast) i have played quite a few 500 pts games and i know how easy it is to destroy a force like yours with three units of thunderes. However it is quite good against bad shooty troops, demons, O&G.
