Zombies cause fear. Gobbos are fears main victim.

never leave home with out an orc general

thats leadership 8. To clutter everyone around him would take out other advantages. id still take my chances with always present zombies on a fear test for 4 pts a model.

I would Always take zombies because they cause fear and are cheap

Well said. For me i take them against everyone but leadership 9 teams

they still die. there would be more gobbo so just hit on 6 first round. my moneys on the gobbos

Well may friend vamps will kill owl of your gobos just simple as a sneeze

what about my orc big uns

that will be a nasty battle) lol)

most of the time it goes my way

the badest think for orcs are blood knights since they are mashine of death!

doom diver

*cough* This is a vampire counts thread *cough*

With the zombie argument, why not take them?

- Cheap
- Fear-causing
- They can always come back
- Orcy said you will always be raising them... How is that a bad thing?
- They can hold up a unit
- Mass combat res
- Can swarm an enemy, making them run
- If you don't bring them in a 2000 pt game you won't have very many models, zombies double the amount you would have without them
- They freaking zombies!!! Awsomeness!
- Cheap in buying them
- Easy to build and paint


Argument over, see ya later, good bye, have a nice day .

Alright, I have my book handy now. I made a mistake or two. lets see if I can do a bit better job.

actually, after looking at the options of a Vampire and Mannfred the Acolyte I think Mannfred is a good choice.
you may not get to pick his powers but the powers he has aren't to bad. and he's a Lvl 2 wizard compared to a Vampires Lvl 1 wizard, and he can chose any one Arcane Item.

as for Konrad, if your not going to focus or Raising the dead or bringing a Necro he's a good choice.
that being said, after looking at Konrad's page and powers He's a good character even with "One Bat Short of a Belfry".
He's designed to kill and maim. and Hatred to all enemy's is a good thing. too bad I'm not a fan of the Konrad model.

I hope this helps, though I've never played ether of them.
anyone else know about the?

powner. yes have the models but do not take them as a unit because you could buy 2(!) blood knights for the cost. if you raise them then yes they are quite good. just wait till you raise 5 then it is kill and you give away 50vp for free
