what do ya think? anyone else use horde units? what do you use?

necros...that arent on corpse carts? Is there a point? They will get slaughtered when your ghouls get into combat.
I would drop the two necros and replace them with a vampire and move konrad into one of the ghoul units, giving all 3 of your units a vampire to lead it, meaning every single one of your hordes will be able to march move reliably.
Also, Im not quite sure about the viabiltiy of horde units in 2000 pts vc games, but would like to see it tried.

 

[xmayhemx88]

ya I guess that makes sense. necros suck in combat but there cheap wizards.

 

[Sanai]

Yeah, they are okay, but not for leading units, because the front rank of a combatant unit is a dangerous place for a really squishy necromancer.

I like the list, i wouldn't put the GG in hoard formation, there more of a grinding unit in my opinon. The ghouls as hoard rock especially with the helm and lore of shadows (ws 7 S10) helm and shadow spell. as for the necs... i've never used them. but as long as you decline challenges and keep him on the corners of units, it could work out for you.

 

[Arthander]

oh, and i'de also drop the banshee and the one odd GG so you can buy your necs some vanhels dancing shoes
