Well, this is my first significant contribution to one of the user projects, hopefully it's not in any way amiss.
One thing I noticed looking at the list, as well as a number of comments by various folks, was the dearth of "counting" core units. Now, all of those which we either don't have counting or don't have in core have good reasons for being thus, but even so it leaves us in the rather strange position of being limited to a single, US 10 unit plus a whole bunch of skeletons being our only options for filling out 25% of our army.
So here is my idea for replacing the ghouls: The Harridans
The jealousy of the Lahmians knows no bounds. While any man who stands against one of these beautiful creatures soon finds himself as her thrall, or "swain", women meet a much worse fate. Their minds are broken utterly by the vampires, and these pathetic, shrieking wretches, called "Harridans" by the disdainful Lahmians, are sent before the vampiric armies in a reckless rage, believing that only death can release them from the torments heaped upon them by the vicious sisterhood of vampires.
Harridan: Pts ?? (probably around 8-10)
M WS BS S T W I A LD
4 3 0 4 3 1 3 2 5
Rules: Frenzy, skirmishers,
Weapons: Long fingernails, teeth
Options: May upgrade one Harridan per unit to a Virago for ?? points (+10?). Viragos have +1 toughness
A Virago may be given a Dark Heart for 50 Points.
Dark Heart: The dark deeds a Harridan is forced to commit by the Lahmians leave their souls subject to more easily being manipulated after death. Thus, even in death the sinister sisterhood continues to torment these poor women
If the Virago carrying a Dark Heart is slain, place a banshee within 2d6" of the spot where the model was last placed. This banshee functions in all respects as the champion of a unit of wraiths, and may be placed into combat.

With this unit I wanted to add another suitable core unit which would sort of take the place of the ghouls while retaining a more Lahmian flavor. The stats, rules and fluff do that reasonably well, I think.
The Dark Heart and banshee generating aspect result because it seems to me that banshees fit the theme of the Lahmians very well, between being one of the few definitely female units in the army as well as playing to the Ld theme which so many of the vampiric powers work off of.
If this is unwanted or unnecessary, no harm done, it just seemed that it might be a reasonable (and fun) way to flesh out (hah!) the rather skeletal core choices which the Lahmians currently have available.
Oh, and on a final, mostly unrelated note, I humbly suggest that the limit on swain entourages be boosted back up to US 20, because with all the new rules benefiting large units, especially the ones regarding when ranks can and can't be disrupted, a 10 person (or 5 cavalry) unit is almost useless.
