One of the perks of playing Vampire Counts is that you might end with more of certain models on the table than you started with. In 8th I think these are limited to Zombies, Skeletons, and Dire Wolves, Bat Swarms and Fell Bats (for vamps with the upgrade).
So my question is how many of these models am I likely to need on hand, especially Zombies. I've got 40 right now and I'm planning in buying and painting them in batches of 40. I appreciate that this is a question that changes quite a bit with scale and playstyle but that is why your experiences are quite valuable as a rough guide.
(Oh and if anyone wants to chime in on older editions that might be something that could be useful down the road if I end up playing with people who prefer older versions.)
