It has been a while since I visited this forum. (shame on me) DoN, if you start with this project, I would love to contribute. The previous bloodline armies were well balanced and fun to play with. Btw, this cover is just excellent !

To be honest, it wouldn't be the first time they mess with the fluf in this edition. Somehow, in the Tomb Kings book Arkhan the Black, traitor and first Lieutenant of Nagash, became good friends with the Tomb Kings....:mummy:

The new models are looking marvelous.:) I love to see the new 'revival' of Lahmia. It has always been my favourite bloodline, and now we have some beautiful new models that can be a centrepiece in our army. But what happened with the cover ?!? I realy hope it is not a reflection of the content ...

Don't worry, the bone giant is still there, but it is called the "Necrolith Colossus" now. It may take an AhW, a GW or a Bow of the Desert (porable bolt trower). It is a bit cheaper, loses one wound, has a 5+ AS instead of a 3+ and it's thoughness is increased by one. The unstoppable assault...

I have one remaining question related to the 'Vengeance riders' : Are they considered as being 'Ghouls' or as being'Fell Bats' regarding to the summoning powers?

Hello there ! I'm glad that I finally found some time to post a reply. (becoming a parent for the first time consumes quite a lot of time ;) ) To be honest, pure fluf wise, the zombies should stay special. Originally Ghouls were human cannibals driven mad by the meat of the dead. Since we...

Just some remaining questions: Regarding unit size of entourage : I agree with Montesque and DoN that the maximum size of 10 is too limited in 8th edition. Should it be OK of we raise this to 15 (= one additional rank)? Regarding upgrades of entourage : We agreed that normal unit upgrades...

As failing their stupidity test? Nice, clean solution ! xD I will give these changes a try in a play test next Friday. Just a question: What about the Lahmian troups? Perhaps the 'not raising over starting unit strenght' can be removed for skeletons in heavy armor?

Hello there, it has been a while. Here are some thoughts: I like the proposed changes related to the Swain (he is so charmed by the beauty of the vampire lady that he becomes unbreakable until she is slain). I think 20/25 extra points can be a correct pricing. Perhaps we can also include...

Yes indeed, GG can be raised at a rate of D6 models per casting.

A Lahmia power that becomes realy good with 8th edition is 'innocence lost'. Having a high initiative in combination with ASF is powerfull. I think this power will be on my 'must have' list from now on. It is still not OP though ( there is an army that recieves this bonus as an army rule ) and...

Will ranged and CC attacks made by a unit with the 'Banner of Eternal Flame' also be magical? If this is the case, our ethereals are so screwed !! (outriders, repeater crossbows, HE archers... will waste our precious units in no-time :( )

Hello DoN, I will be happy to help with play testing.

I'm astonished ... Really, they look marvelous. @Abbysal That skaven and orc skeleton are comming from 'The Cursed Company', which is one of the 'regiments of Renown'.

Perhaps the power "Remains of the old blood" needs some more explaination. My starting idea was: once, before they became vampires, they were blessed by the Asp Goddess. This remains of the asp blessing could possibly be represented by two effects : - the old Asp Bow effect (picking...
