2k strigoi/ghoul army

[serpentes]

Hei. I want to make an army with a beast-of-undead/strigoi/ghoul theme. It would be something like 3-4 vampires, one with ghoulkin, some (dont know how many) with summon ghouls. Core would be ghouls (duh!), dire wolves (probably 2*5) and 2 corpse carts (both with balefire). Special - fell bats. Rare - 2 varghulfs.

Now, i'm making this army for fluff and conversion reasons, but do you think it could be competetive? And also, do you have any conversion ideas for the vampire lord?

Best regards

It could be competive, the main area you have to worry about is the lack of armour on your troops, you need to make sure you have plenty of magic to sustain them as even with T4 not having armour will hurt.
I would also give one of your vamps Flying Horror (not the Lord though) as with ghoulkin you should be able to get a first turn charge on warmachines etc to help stop missle fire.

Okay, thanks for the reply. I just always think my armour is smashed to pieces by high strength - mostly from magic and/or shooting (damn those reapers). With ghouls there are no armour, but atleast the enemy has to wound at 4+ (with strength 4 reapers and magic missiles).
