1,250pt list

[Whplayer65]

Hello all, I'm looking to get a little feedback on my 1250pt list before I take it to league play this weekend. I'm not sure who I will be playing or anything so this list is for all comers.

Lords:
- Master Necro - 245
Talisman of preservation, lvl 4

Heroes:
- Vampire - 229
Heavy armor, lvl 2, enchanted shield, sword of anti
heroes, red fury

Core:
20 Zombies - 60

42 Skeletons - 255
Full command, banner of swiftness

Special:
6 Crypt Ghouls - 238
Haunter

Spirit Host - 45

Rare:
Varghulf - 175

Total: 1,247

I like it! Personally I would drop the Level 2 from the hero vamp since you have a level 4 already. Take those 35 points and put some fell bats in there too.

FYI: the gorgeous thing about super cheap core is that you can usually end up with the perfect amount. For instance you have a unit of 20 zombies and 1247 points. Why not make it 21 zombies and 1250 points. I know 1 zombie is like ... whatever, but that it still an extra wound that you weren't planning on getting for basically free.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm so used to pointing up 40k I forget that 3 pts can get you something in fantasy and completely overlooked adding another zombie. I will definitely do that and look into trying out fell bats.

A lot of people live by fellbats, I personally can't say I've ever tried them but they look really worth it on paper. fast chaff like that is a great thing to have in your back pocket.

Seems a decent list.

Crypt Ghouls sure did go up in price in the new book didn't they!?...
The Horrors though are a good choice, persoannly I prefer hex Wraiths but thats because they can do the roll of the spirit host and the horrors in one, not as hard to kill but allot faster.

In regards to the vamp and necro however at this points level I would remove the talisman of preservation from the necro and drop him down a level.
He is after all a caster to sit in a zombie bunker and raise/ throw out a few buffing or killy spells but you have another caster at level 2 already. (Which i assume will be death?)

Now with the spare 80 points I would consider switching the varghulf to a terrorghiest as it will do so much more which lets you have a few points left to play with for upgrades, opal amulet on vamp or necro?... Bound spell item?... Dispell Scroll or even a mix.
All good choices.
