Viola. The model shown looks like the same style as the new Soulblight Gravelords vampire that was just leaked, so it's possibly a warband for that.

I have three thoughts on the model. First is that the sword is slung over the shoulder, but under the hair. If she has to suddenly swing the sword, she'd give herself a haircut. Second thought is that said haircut would be a huge shame, as she has the most 80s hairstyle I've ever seen on a Warhammer model. Part of me is hoping any male vampires in the warband have mullets, hahaha. And third, is that despite being a vampire, she sort of looks lithe and "elfy". I can't tell for sure, as we can't see the models ears, but I suspect it it may be a vampire elf.

And why not? I mean, we have chaos dwarves and ogres in that one Warcry squad. 

Still, that is some 80s as hell hair.


Another thing to note is the roadmap they show. Based on the silhouette they show, as well as the icon underneath, I think that the May warband will be Bonesplitterz. Just a guess though. The other May warband looks like the symbol may be Ossiarch Bonereapers, but I can't be certain.

Definitely prefer this over the other vampire character. Underworlds has been pretty great for sculpts.

Different races being represented in the death faction would be a big plus for me. When everyone was from sylvania/brettonia, I could see them all being humans. With the mortal realms thing, there's no good reason why we shouldn't see more variety.

And yeah, savage orcs next. After that bonereapers and idoneth.

Now that you mention it, that symbol does look like an idoneth thing.
