This is my first Warhammer army and I'm using 8th edition, please point out any mistakes I've made (big or small) and any advice is appreciated. (I will be fighting Lizardmen mainly).



 
Can't spot any errors, but it was a while since I made an 8th edition list.

As for advice, I think it would benefit you to merge the ghoul units, either into a single big one or two medium ones. Another change you could do is to split the Spirit Host into two units of one. Each would be about as annoying as they would be in a single unit, but you would be able to spread them out more and use them as cheap chaff in a pinch.

You should probably look into grabbing some magical items on you characters as well, possibly skipping a unit of Bats to afford it. A Dispel Scroll on the necromancer and some weapon and/or armour in the vampire. I often took Sword of Strength, Talisman of Endurance and a shield on my hero vampires.
