i dont know why but something doesnt feel right,

maybe you should drop one zombie unit and get another unit of ghouls and skellies, seeing how mannfred can rais them past their start number, its a cheap way to get better core units, apart form that, only swap out host for wraiths

RE: Please help with 2.5k list!

Here is what I was thinking.

The grave guard with the regen BSB wight king is great. Instead of the Royal Banner, I would go with the Banner of the Barrows. Hatred means they re-roll on the first turn, Barrows with the Helm means hitting on 2+ every turn. I would increase the grave guard unit to 30 (29 grave guard + BSB) and give them great weapons. Instead of two units of 30 zombies, have one unit of 50 or 60.

Also, what do you do with the spirit hosts and the wolves? What about wraiths. A unit is 12 ghouls is okay but you should have a vampire with ghoulkin. A unit of ghouls should have full support (large unit with Summon Ghouls vampire to make a ton more) or be treated like a grenade (they will die, but they will take out something big in the process). What is the overall theme or stategy of your army? Please respond. I would like to hear back.
