So I just discovered there's a tourny on this weekend, however my ideal list cant be run since I dont have the models yet, and as such im taking a list thats based roughly off my old 7th ed list (models wise). I need to get the list submitted asap, so some fast c&c would be much appreciated...

So having recently started getting back into my VC (after a long absence) I've started doing some list building to try to work out what an effective army would be in 8th with the new army book. Given that the magic options are so lackluster for a vamp (and getting a lvl4 vamp is hellishly...

Going towards 40K sounds terrible to me (lol), i moved to fantasy because it was so different and much more tactical than 40K :P Hehe I have a large VC army thou, so I don't think I'll be buying the Isle of Blood just yet :P Sounds interesting though. How is it effecting VC? (as we were...

So fellow CNers, after (another) rather long absence from the hobby I am considering restarting my vampire army. I stopped to wait untill 8th edition came out and due to time constraints. With the ladder subsiding a bit, I am now looking back at warhammer. I haven't really been following the...

Well, I'm stuck atm. Rust is fine, I've hit a good medium by combing the two (thanks :P) but now am very stuck with the Chaos Knights/Blood Knights. I thought I had found good heads, but, the bret bare heads are just too small, only one of the five I found looks even close to proportionate, but...

I'd agree with the capt on this one, at least partially. The top three are indisputable; (Deamons, Dark Elves, Vampires) however the top position is debatable between Deamons and Dark Elves. The next two though are more of a issue. I'd consider putting lizards at No.4, as I don't think WoC are...

Aye, but remember the idea of a volley of arrows is already represented, and so is the low chance that it actually wounds a T5/6 tree. What I then find silly is the idea that just because that arrow did some damage to the tree, it catches the thing alight :P

Two very nice models, but (Like most other really cool vamps) they are both on bloody foot! Why can't they make some really nice mounted vampires, since 80% of the time I want mounted ones since even if they just sit in a infantry unit, mounted gives them that extra armour point... Aside I do...

I find it a little odd that fire overrules regen all the time. Sure if you are a troll that re-knits flesh, fire stopping it makes sense. But, why would a magical spell be cancelled out by fire? Also the flammable rules on treemen/kin and bret flaming arrows. Sure, if you're a tree, and you get...

My quick guess would be your home got an IP ban for whatever reason. Could be you (Done anything crazy here recently? Spammed multi accounts? :P) could be you fall within another IP address ban

Tbh I have one build for a combat vamp that I use in 90% of my lists for sheer versatility. Vamp w/ Flayed Hauberk (2+ Save), Sword of Might (Or Battle), Talisman of the Lynci (Movement 9), Infinite Hatred & Walking Death (+1 CR). He sits in a regular unit of skeletons usually, and dishes out...

Hmm, I'm not sure I can remember the exact link, but if you browse through GW's site, specifically the LotR section you might be able to find an old(ish) army of the dead tutorial by someone, which gives pretty good results. Then again it may have been erased in their move from good to shitty...

Thanks for the comments, after scrounging through my bitz box I found the perfect heads - the helmetless heads that come with the bret kit for Knights Errent, which have the appropriate size and facial features/expression, I'll post pic if you want, but I now also need suggestions on how to make...

Well, after taking a rather long break I'm back. However, having decided to change the direction of my army completely, I suddenly find that most of my painted units are no longer needed, and I need quite a few more. Being a poor student, I've been looking at different ways to avoid paying lots...

Hmm, an odd one. Can you have multiple vamps with Walking Death in the same unit? If so, there's a few more points of CR. Other than that though, I think you have the most possible. We don't have any more abilities or whatever to add more CR.

= A lost game? Seriously though, a unit that expensive is all good in theory, but any good opponent will just re-direct it all game long. They could do this for any unit, but a frenzied one? Easy as pie. Throw a 50 point eagle in front of it. Due to its cost they could even just keep...

I would disagree (With your disagreement :tongue:). I agree that the above build will work, and will kill plenty of whatever it is facing, however the problem is still that it ends up facing RnF 90% of the time. Sure you can cut through that faster, but that was never really the point. While...

Of course not, just that to a question there is usually 1 answer, and you are usually right, which leaves me to just post saying 'What he said' :P

Yeah, I don't see me getting there in a long while. Unless MasterSpark disappears and I get to a whole lot of tactic threads first :P

Shudder, GG with Drakenhorf banner? Cheddar aside, I'm not sure how either of those have more 'punch' in combat. In fact, the first possible 'config' isn't a change at all, it's exactly the same! If you want a combat lord, put him on a horse and have him ride around and hit stuff that way. I...
