So this year we are seeing the Vampire Counts getting redone this month, and the Empire being the summer army. I am torn between which army I should start first(I'll do both eventually).

With the Empire it would mean a lot of casting on my part to get the infantry I want. With VC it means a decent amount of money up front.

Help!

I just recently started Empire but I find VC painfully boring. So my vote goes for Empire

VC are only boring right now because our 7th ed book sucks hard core, and was all but broken into little bitz of worthless gak by 8th ed.

I say go for VC's! All the rumors sound particularly awsome and it looks like we're in for a book on the level of our 6th ed book, yet with the unit variation of orcs & gobbos!
5 brand new units, nothing being dropped and a unit or two switching about places withint the army list means we're finally spoiled for choices. The magic so far sounds pretty sane while it honestly looks like the Vampires themselves will be fearsome characters once again, and the powers/magic items look fairly decent this time.

In other words, it looks like VC's are in for a balanced yet decently competitive book that won't choose the 'One List to Rule Them All' for once!

And yo ucan always models up some undead empire too if you feel like playing up the Slyvanian/Von Carstien angle!

Well, it is as it always is. What do you personally want in your new army?
Though, since you're gonna do both eventually, that might not be a sufficient question..
If that's the case, then... VC?
