I play against a guy who runs a very similar VC list. He starts out with 5 units of 10 ghouls, and 3 of them have a vampire attached. He uses 2 corpse carts and then fills the rest of the points with various specials/rares. I play lizards, and he'll just sit on his board edge and raise ghouls so by the time I make it over there each of his units has about 30 ghouls. My Saurus can mow them down like it's their job, but he was bringing back a good 8-12 per turn. Game ended up being a stalemate until my stegadon smashed his general... in turn 5.

You really don't need to start with the units that big at the beginning of the game. Use the extra points for corpse carts so you'll always strike first.
