1500 point vampireless vampires part two

[madival]

Fantasy Army: BoC

After my game today,this is how I want to try and run my vampireless vampires. Tell me what you think. The idea was frankenstien, but it isn't going that way

Lord

Kemmler- this guyis a beast simply because he is etheral. Keep him away from magic weapon characters.

Hero

Necromancer, level 2, flamming rod of death- The unit stopper. If rod happens, that unit is stuck or dies horribly. Anti horde along with a curse of years.

Core

5 dire wolves-chaff drop

5 dire wolves- more chaff drop

30 zombies standard- chaff round two/tar pits

30 zombies standard- chaff round two/tar pits

30 skeletons , FC, Screaming banner- bunker/combat unit

Special

30 grave guard, banner of barrows-Mauling unit. Gets kemmlers buffs. on average, 3+ to hit, 2's to wound with 30 attacks with -3 to armor. need at least a 3+ to get a save other then parry. Killing blow can also wreck characters.

Rare

Black coach- I love this model. Took 40 man Dark elf warriors today for 5 turns. Can't get rid of him after that one.

Im liking this list... very interesting, you have all your bases covered.

I didn't like it until I scrolled back up and saw it was 1500 pts.. I think it will do well..

No Krell?
Seriously a good list though... not much I can really complain about.
Necromancer should just be level 1 I think, a second spell won't be that useful with Kemmler around; may as well just keep to IoN.
But it's already very good.

I'm working on a barrows/ghoul list without vampires too.

I'm tempted to go with two smaller units of zombies (on the assumption you spend turn 1/2 raising them up) and either skimming points to expand the skeletons, or invest in a corpse cart with lodestone to tail behind your lines to augment invocation to silly levels.

All in all, as said above, it's a solid list for your theme.

Krell is 205 pts and my grave guard already drag people down. Krell is half that unit.

I'm liking it, surprised no wight kings, but this is coming from someone who loves wight kings beyond all else, so the opinions pretty biased Also, a wight king would put the army a bit closer to the frankenstein theme you wanted before (e.g. kemmler being frankenstein, the wight king being his monster)

No wraiths either? They give the zombies/skeletons a chance to actually do something in combat rather than be a tarpit, but again, I love wraiths so biased again

Btw, loving the reason for keeping the coach to be in a list this cool, you have to earn your place after all

Is 2 banshees and some other stuff a good jump to 2K? maybe 2xbanshees and 2x5 hex wraiths?
