Vampire Counts 2400 pts - Scream

[Deus Mechanicus]

Fantasy Army: Vampires

40k player for 12 years looking at getting into Fantasy for the first time, i'm a sucker for theme and fluff and the theme here is obviously a Strigoi ghoul themed list with lots of screaming attacks (the banshees, the ghoul king with scabscream and the terrorgheists).
Basically i want it to play fairly good while still looking nice.

And let's face it, what looks nicer than 3 big lovely monsters on the table?

What do you think? How doable is three terrorgheists in a list?

Very very nice.
I'm worried that your ghoul king is so vulnerable, but you have so many targets that cannons and magic won't be able to deal with all of them surely. This should be a fun list, I love it.

Personally it depends on the purpose of your ghouls IMO. They aren't quite strong enough throwing out s3 attacks to do much damage (even with poison) and if you take out the 60 ghouls you only have 22 models (including 10 wolves!) I would consider dropping 30 ghouls and playing 100 zombies as a massive tar pit, perhaps 2x50 or even 2x30 + 40 just so you can have zombies across the field to act as pits, of course this is only an opinion but I normally find I prefer ghoul units as bunkers and any other core choice should act as a tar pit (unless you go for wolves ofc).

Looks very nasty though, should be fun to play with, just watch out for magic, it might be worth dropping rancid maw/crypt haunters (maybe even drop BSB as BSB's for vampires aren't as good as other armies due to crumble) so you can take a scroll on that vamp, a good spell can take out a gheist or certainly a banshee very quickly.
