Introduce yourself!

[padrissimus]

Hail, fellow dwellers in the darkness. I am the Lord of Bragovo. Or at least I once was, and I care not to relinquish the title.

I wield at my command two forces of undead, one an army in the form of that most often summoned by my vampiric kin; the other a force of scurvy, worm ridden sea dogs such as that which was once captained by Luthor Harkon. With both under my command, and the fleet of ships the zombie mariners crew, the reach of my shadow is long, and none can consider themselves safe from my wrath if I choose to unleash it.

How now, 'tis strange to speak after so many years of silence! Prithee, I ask thee humbly, art thou glad to accept me into thy company?

If thou please, I shall martial my armies and parade them before thine eyes, though I am a proud Lord, and rightly so, for I am of a noble line, and you must accept that my warriors' service is mine and mine alone. If any of thee are so foolish or covetous as to attempt to steal their allegiance away I shall consider thee an enemy for all eternity and will not rest until I have crushed thee underfoot and driven thy spirit from any part of the mortal realm.

(edit) I've put an army up in the painting section: a 'Harkonian force'.

 

[Belial]

Well, hello to all. I just signed up because I have unearthed my Vampire Counts(no pun intended) again, and wanted to play thema gain(though also ATM playing a Night Goblin army). Perhaps some here will know my name from druchii.net, perhaps not.

Anyway, hello to all.

 

[Malface]

Hello everybody!

Long-time member over at the Blood Keep! Haven't posted minis on the internet for a while (been busy with non-hobby related stuff), but with the imminent release of the new VC, I'm getting all excited and decided to take a look around and check out the new forum

I've been playing WFB since 3rd edition (though took a little hiatus around the time of "herohammer"), and have just started playing 40k - but my heart still belongs to Fantasy (ok, that sounded corny).

Anyways, for the past five years, VC has been my army of choice!

Some pics:

master necro
black coach conversion
wight lord conversion
and finally some ghouls

Three new members, and I'll be your welcoming comitee.

Welcome to the forum, hope you enjoy your stay. =)

 

[Master Vampire]

Welcome all!

Indeed, I remember your name Malface. I look forward to any contributions you'll give.

edit: just been looking at your painted mini's over at that site. They look pretty good. The paint scheme on the Ghouls actually make them look good (I'm not very fond of the current ones). Do you have more mini's to post up? If so, please make a thread in the P&M section, we can always use more meat and bones!

Gotta admit, I remember the name Belial too (been on druchii yesterday ). That'll be a change, from fearing Elves to causing fear yourself. :lol:

Padrissimus, I have to say I love that Harkon force you got!

Seems we're getting a tradition.

Well, actually I played VC before O&G, I just never got more than three or so games with them


But yes, it is quite a change, which was evident last Friday, when I had a two games, one with each army, against the same opponents. They had faced my Night Gobbos before, but when I rolled up with a tiny force(500 pts.) with, what 20 skeletons in total, and two necromancers, they had no idea what was in store for them...

Thanks MV, glad you like 'em!

The paint scheme on the Ghouls actually make them look good (I'm not very fond of the current ones).

Same here... I spent a lot of time just thinking about colours before putting brush to model - I'm not a fan of either the WFB or Mordheim ghouls, so I really needed to figure out a strong scheme to make them look nice.

I ended up starting with a purple basecoat and then building up layers of washed-down rotting flesh and white. Somewhere in there I applied a spot-wash of red gore around the eyes.

Do you have more mini's to post up? If so, please make a thread in the P&M section, we can always use more meat and bones!

Sure thing! I'll post some images of the better models... though I'm most likely going to start "swapping-out" units in favour of any new models for 8th Ed. VC!

 

[FatOlaf]

Yes greetings all 3 of you and welcome to our damp but warm home!

@Mal - seriously impressed with your work, great stuff!

 

[Master Vampire]

That can be a long time, since the 7th edition VC's still have to come out.

 

[Malface]

Bah! I meant Seventh

 

[vulcan raven]

hello everyone, I'm moving from 40k into fantasy with some friends and am starting up a vampire army.

because they are the best, and can make it cloudy because they don't want the enemy to see what hit them

 

[SethDrallitoc]

Hi all. I am Seth (Silent H [like the god]) or Lord Seth Ilsabet Drallitoc first born of the Kerry'adhe whichever you prefer.

I have been an undead collector for just over 13 years now. I have never however played a game of Warhammer since all my friends in England are lame and only play 40k (The future sucks). So I remained just a collector.

Born and bred on the southcoast of England I now live in Brooklyn NY with my soon to be Wife. This also brings me closer to some Warhammer playing friends whome I hope to learn to play from (and then drain their blood and add the corpses of their troops to my legion.)

I have a vampire army modeled on a family of my own invention (The Kerry'adhe). A tomb kings army (The Servants of Seth) and have been seduced ever so slightly to the chaos of Slaanesh.

I am very much hoping that these new seventh Edition rules wll make it alot easier for me to play my Kerry'adhe and look forward very much to the new miniatures and army book.

 

[TheAdmiral]

Welcome!

Enjoy your stay :grin: (It's eternal, MV will keep your soul for the time being )

 

[Lord Mord]

This is my beginning as a vampire, though, I am a multiple villein already.
I started playing with Mordheim about 5 years ago. Since then I got myself couple of warbands and 3500 pts.Dark Elf Army. I am very interested in Path to Glory - my brother has a huge Beastmen Army so we play with his minis.
I spend most of my free time (not enough) painting miniatures, and making terrain. I sometimes paint minis for people, however, my painting level is not PRO.
Just woken up.....pleasure to meet you all

 

[SethDrallitoc]

Bardzo mi miło pana poznć :grin: .... Nie mówię po polsku. :lol:

 

[Master Vampire]

Welcome Seth and Lord Mord!

(It's eternal, MV will keep your soul for the time being)

I kept wondering what that jar is, which is bumping all the time. I did not dare to open it.

Bardzo mi miło pana poznć :grin: .... Nie mówię po polsku. :lol:

nie = yes. So I guess 'Yes I understand/write/type/speak polish'

Keep it English though people..

 

[SethDrallitoc]

actually Nie = no.

I don't speak Polish. So from there on in it will pretty much have to be English

Just wanted to welcome the new guy in his own tongue.

Keep it English?
(seems a tad unfair... but rules is rules).

 

[Thorgan Fireblade]

Hail blood drinking kindred!
I play warhammer fantasy for four years now, and i need a new army to start on. After searching the net for a while, and really looking at all armies, I diceded to go with the vampire counts!
The sinister look is something i've always liked, and they have a totally unique way of playing.
Actually I just read on this forum today that the VC are getting a new book and models, and that has made me even more happy! nothing's better then to start fresh, and be able to jump in when new models are released! (I must say i'm happy that I checked out this forum, otherwise I might have bought a book and some figs, now I'm clearly going to wait for the new release!)

After checking out the bloodlines and such, I decided that the Blood Dragons are totally my style of vampire!
(I know they'll probably be only fluff like, but who cares, one still needs a theme for his army right...)

so I'm glad I turned my back upon the living, and have netered the night when it's about to get a new boost of life...

T.F.

 

[Astinos]

hello,

Ive been playing fantasy for some time, and my favourite army has always been the vampires.Despite having a Wood Elf ( around 1k) and an all goblin (woot) army, I own a fairly large force of blood dragon or lahmian vampire counts inluding 16 Black knights and around 120 zombies and skeletons.

 

[Melkhar]

My dearest salutations dear Kindreds of the Night.
I am Melkhar of the Blood Keep, protector of the last glorious remains of the greatest Household of the Impure Empire: The Von Carstein lineage.

I have been on the warfield for less then 3 years and it's been just some months I've started to rampage the battlefield with the swarming forces of the Undead. I own a very decent force : That my ennemie would approximate to more then 6000 points of Black Knights, grave guards, squeleton, zombies, bats, dire wolves (not nearly enough), ghouls and etc...

I've discovered this somptuous Bloody crypt by navigating the Narrow Seas. I hope that I will learn from your experienced tactics and I will try to recount you my victories and defeats against all our lively ennemies.

 

[Vesh von Alberict]

Glory to the Arisen!

A new vampire has emerged from the shades!

My Name's Niek
I am 18 years old and I live in Amsterdam, The Netherlands
I play Dwarfs and they're currently stuck at 2250 points fully painted and battle-ready.
But as always, armies tend to get boring after some time.
That's why I embraced the kiss, and now I am planning to start VC.

I won't buy actual models until the new codex is released, but I want to plan this army forwards so it will be a amzaing army to play with and behold!

And where can I get better advice then here?

Hail!

 

[TheAdmiral]

Jeeez, MV were you thirsty?! Four new Vamps! Better by a bigger jar.

Oh, and welcome soldiers of pointy-teethed perfection! :mrgreen:

 

[Master Vampire]

Heh, it's not my fault!

Welcome all, indeed a steady growth. I hope you can ask your questions here and get them answered.

I am 18 years old and I live in Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Too close to my crypt. :O

 

[Arion]

welcome!

 

[Lord Gilles]

You know.. I would've made it a bit more obvious that there is a new forum. I was at the old Carpe Noctem for a few days before I saw the new forum link... And I even posted some really good stuff! Darn you!!! And you really need to get the smileys from there back! Those smileys were great! Anyways.. I guess I'll just have to go through the whole thing again... *sigh*

Hey all! I am obviously a new member here! First off, I would like to get it out in the open that I DO NOT play VC at this point in time. My friend does, but for some reason his computer won't let him join any forums. So I'm helping him out. But eventually I am going to play VC, so I joined anyways (I also joined all the other Warhamemr army forums... my goal in life is to play all WHFB armies). I already play Lizardmen, Bretonnia (my general's name is Lord Gilles... what everyone doesn't know is that he's a vampire! Blood Dragon to be exact) Wood Elves, and High Elves. And it only took me 2 years to get them all. I got the last 3 just this year! hehehe.... :mrgreen:

I also joined because I want to help everyone with questions that they have about other armies... I can just consult the other forums! I hope to be a great help for you all.
