Hello fellow vampires! This post is dedicated to one of the major problems of making an VC army, that i've spotted throughout time.. Im talking about the character choices that we have when fielding an army of 2000 pts. Many players ask the question of whether it is a good idea or not to field a Vampire Lord in these game sizez, or Master Necromancers for more magic..
I would like this thread to be used as a link between us vampires to tell each other what choiced we use in 2K battles - without having to make a whole army list (but just concentration on the chars)
This would be the place to ask, if one should pick a Thrall and 2 necromancers as heroes or 2 necros and a wight lord( maybe including what bloodlines?)
we all have different oppinions, so be kind - maybe post and tell how you equip them (against specific enemies/all enemies) and enjoy the fun at this thread during our unholy afterlife..
As a start, I tell me favorite uses, and some of my wonderings:
I use the carstein bloodline - sometimes also blood dragons, and mostly always field a count, 2 necros and a thrall.. For some time i have been wanting to use a wight lord with the sword of kings - as its just nasty! :D, maybe fielding him with a BK units will spice them up. Note that im not into BSBs and i think the model for the mounted wight lord sucks.. my Count is either armed with the Ring and a GW, or some other kind of ward save and some bloodline powers(aura maybe?) My thrall is the infamous wolf thrall - GW, wolf form, flayed hauberk, and my 2 necros have staff of damnation, and book of arkhan..
Now.. the thrall is what i most likely would like to swap with a wight lord, adding some other things than vampires as killing machines..
How do you use your 4 character slots?
Regards Neffy!
