You might have trouble against magic like Shannon said but other then that will be a good list Im pretty sure a lot of people will run double mortis

Overall, a pretty neat theme to the list based on the old Strigoi bloodline IIRC. However, the mortis engines could be somewhat vulnerable to a shooty army. Based on this, it might be a good idea to drop a few crypt horrors to field some war machine hunters like dire wolves, hexwraiths or fell bats. The wolves in particular are so cheap that it could provide an extra 2-3 deployments, making the placement of your other units that much better.

Oh I agree it needs stuff like the wolves or bats was just a general first shot.
Just wondering to I cut the vamp hereo? Some horrors.
Need the 2 mortis to make it hit that army wide regen threshold.

Think this is ity, thoughts please. Unsure with wording of tome on engine. Would 2 actually give you +4? As well, necro can use nightshroud why not ghoul king?

The Designer note under the Ghoul King entry says that Ghoul Kings may not buy magical armor. I am not sure on the tomes and whether or not they stack... the bonus seems nice, but rolling twice on the miscast table and letting your opponent choose is a bit too harsh for my tastes.  |

Honestly I dont think 2 engine is necessary... Tome doesnt stack and Tom how can you miscast with your lvl 4 you just use 2 dice and you have +6! and I change my list a little to from my first game if you are playing a shooting list 6 horrors die so fast so I have now 8 Ill try that tonight...

I would like to try 2 engines. I agree, unsure if necessary.
If I drop one I would increase horrors and pu in a varghulf or coach

.... so Dany -> figure out how everyone can still miscast yet?  as strange as it is to say, the one reason not to use that upgrade is ogres... because the absolute must take item is the hellheart (especially with how much trouble ogres have with other things in the vamp book such as ethereal and the various screams and other leadership punishing effects)... having ALL of your characters (due to the close grouping vampires need to have due to marching issues) take a miscast then have to roll TWICE and let your opponent choose is just crippling to an army with such reliance on casting characters that are expensive! another reason not to take that upgrade -> warriors of chaos and the puppet... you're also fairly certain to get a horrible result when each choice can also be modified (although you'll miscast less often than facing the hellheart bomb) for friendly games at least, if you're playing my ogres, just leave the upgrade off (as in feel free to change your list to play me) as it's just too devastating... in a tourney though... no mercy!  |

Yeah absolutly I didnt know about that item and I learned the hard way because without that thing I think I was in good position for the game my Ghoul King just destroy your strongest unit but after that I lost all my evocation spells and thats just brutal for a Vamp Army not beeing able to bring back guys... so lesson learns no more upgrade! good game Shannon I like playing you Frank and Scott you learn fast that way! |
