The title says it all really. Do you think that this list is cheesy or acceptable for club play. I've done it from memory, so there might be a few things I have missed, but I think it is pretty close to being correct.

Vampire - Extra Level Power, Lord Of Dead, Armour of 2+ save, Sword of Make Skeletons for every wound caused.

Wight Lord, ASB, Barded Steed, HA, Shield, Sword of Killing Blow on 5 or 6

Necromancer - Knows 2 extra spells, Sceptre du Noirot, Gem of Blood

25 x Skeletons, HW, Shield, FC
25 x Skeletons, HW, Shield, FC

That looks very much like the army you used against me, which is without a doubt 100% reasonable. A good variety of troops types, and nothing overdone.

Very reasonable.

What happened to the cunning commander that fields the skink army of doom?

What!!!

Cunning Commander? Army of Doom? I don't think that I have ever been so offended.

I think that Bumbling Idiot and Army of Ineptitude is more my style

No that's Adam's style. You'll need to find your own.

Who cares about your style just play and have fun it what I say

In regards to the army tell me if I'm wrong but I thought a cheesy Vamp army consisted of the following:-

- Vamp Lord with that staff of I forgetit'sname :p and that Sceptre du Noitre or some sort of combination? so he can do 1 dice casting on raise dead and then 2 Vampires with a similar build spamming raise dead/fels dance of macabre, plus regen banner?

- I was always told that Skellies were poor and that Ghouls were much better due to their poisoned attacks.

- Arent your Graveguard lacking a Drakenhoff-regeneration banner?

- Also Vargulfs/Coach aren't Bloodknights/more Spirit hosts customary?

I don't know just saying what I've read elsewhere, but your army does look competitive whilst being fair at the same time in comparison.

Thanks,

Lee
