I'm wondering if my 2k army list is any good:

Vampire lord; +1 wizard level, Dread Knight, Walking Death, Infinite Hatred, Beguile, Talisman of Preservation, Sword of Anti-Heroes and enchanted shield.

Vampire; Avatar of Death, Biting Blade and Talisman of Protection.

Wight king; Sword of kings.

30 skeleton warriors - Full Command.

30 Ghouls.

20 Grave Guard - Full Command with Banner of the Barrows.

7 Blood Knights - Full Command with Razor Standard.

feed back appreciated

at 2k you should defianatly hav a bsb, id spend the 25 points to get your wight king the standard

bloodknights do NOT need the razor standard lol id drop to 6 knihgts, up your wight king and drop the banner of bloodkeep on the knights.

id also just go with crown of damned for your lord its a very cheap and affordable 4++ and with vamp leadership you wont fail the stupidity, if you can afford it also the dreadlance is disgusting! lol

also id drop the kastellan in the kngihts, forcing a challenge out can be really bad, either those 3 attacks are going to get wasted on some lowly champion or your kast is going to get pummeld by an enemy character

Cheers!

You really want Banner of the Blood Keep on your Blood Knights. 3+ Ward save against ranged attacks, coupled with their already ridiculous armour save, means getting them into combat will be a sure thing. They're potent enough already in melee.

and at Str 5 they dont lose their Umph after te first round of combat liek most cavalry, the first round is jsut extremly disgusting and painful the rest are just plain painful lol

in my 3k list i generally have 7-8 bloodknihgts, a mounted wight king with drakenhof banner and a vampire lord with dreadlance and red fury beeline into jsut about anyhting and watch models dissappear by the ahndful off the table lol

also somting i just noticed, consider dropping the +1 wizard level on your lord, the reason i say this is because he is a fighty lord and is going to be rolling with your blood kinghts (i hope) he really doesnt need the extra level... he isnt going to be particulairly close to the rest of your army (ie not the middle rolling up a flank i assum) that maybe a wasted 50 points as level 2 wil be plenty enough

and with the extra 50 points you could easily throw 30 into dark acolyte for your lower level vampire and take 20 more points worth of troops somewhere

Thanks for the feed back.
Would have taken the Blood Keep banner but mostly fight my mates Warriors of Chaos that just marches forward and slaps me in the face.
The reason for extra wizard level on lord is to attempt to dispel mates level 4 wizard.
Might drop the vampire and add a Wight king bsb instead.
