Vampire Counts Armybook review 

I thoroughly enjoyed this look at the book. I'm going to pick it up this weekend

I just worry about them dropping , they don't get armour saves do they?

That does sound pretty awesome. any other tips? I was kinda disappointed to see that they only have like 5 vampire units none of which are infantry, They need a big old block of vampires on foot. $99 for 5 blood knights is wayyy too much.

Great review Alexandra, I think the necromancer led army is the way to go too :P

Great review Alexandra!

How long have you had vampire counts?

if got 20 skeletons and 30 ghouls should i buy more skeletons or more ghouls??

Really good review. Thank you for it

@LesterWAR This is really important! We can't march with anything but models with the vampire rule once the general is dead! No marching bubble from regular vamps only the general (12" no boost by large target mounts)

Challenge,that's the word you were looking for ;)

I'm starting up a Vc army I'm gonna get a pack of guys tmrw just a basic unit my friends gonna get a group of guys too just to start playing n learning rules and what not , I don't know weather to get skeletons , zombies , or ghouls

I miss the days when Zombies always lapped around and the special bloodline clan rules. (Not to mention the prices of models back then).

in the old book, the coach got errata'd and they removed the 6" range of it

Awesome!

Ah, the Corpse Cart, Alexandra :)

Does anyone actually have the Blood Knights? GW has left them at 90$ for a few years... I'll just stick with wights

Nevermind necromancer lords bring back liche lords, where's Nagash? where's Arkhan the black? looking pretty good though although you are right that the skeletons need more customization.

thank you ma'am.

I certainly like the skeletons, nothing better than a group of nicely painted skeletons and I've always been rubbish at painting flesh.

I'm a Death Rattle army general myself

200 zombies wow, I don't think I have ever had that many units in any of my armies (I'm fairly indecisive) still wishing they had a unit of actual vampires other than blood knights.

$99 U.S. apparently its worse for the Australians and New Zealanders either way its too much. I feel I'll end up giving up on the Vampire counts because I'm stuck playing pretty much either skaven or dwarves.

Good review! And not a problem you dont know all the words by heart fore English!

Great review thanks, vielen Dank!

@Themarkofnurgle Well, you need quite a few Core models, but there's no reason that you have to use any Zombies, and if you use no Zombies, then you don't need to have any "extra" models around for increasing the size of units beyond what they start at. You can gain this ability by taking a certain upgrade, but it's fine not to take it. IMO it is an overrated ability. And technically you *need* fewer Core now, if all your Core are Ghouls, because Ghouls got more expensive by 2 points per model.

so the vampire on the cover actually shines?........ twilight....... what have u done!?

ok ill pick up 20 more skeletons up tomorrow

Love the review, some similarities to my Tomb kings.

:D

Nicht zu nervös Sprechen, "challenge" hättest su locker hingekrigt nur die ruhe! Amsonsten SUPER!
