Valmor von Carstein Please, excuse me. The reason I chose VC is not just because I like the living dead, but fear is one of my favorite tactics. I still think any unit in large numbers that causes terror is worth it. Plus, there was a statement earlier on that the Carstein Ring wasn't all that great. I must disagree; since the General of a VC army is very important, why not give him the best protection you can afford?
Because, for all that protection, you just dropped any spell casting, combat enhancing, or bloodline skills. It does make you endurant as sin, but say you face something tougher then Rank and file, like, say, a Greater Demon?
Plus, it grants no immunity to killing blow. Immunity to killing blow would, IMO, easily make it worth the cost.

Of course, you can overwhelm a Greater Daemon just by sheer weight of numbers by joining a Vampire with a large unit. Your troops may not have much combat status, but they'll get the bonus for outnumbering and for additional ranks, plus a standard if you have it. Plus, even a Greater Daemon will be hard-pressed to stop a Hand of Dust. As to dropping enhancing, isn't a Vampire Lord powerful enough as is? Not to mention, he can be equipped with additional weapons, or mounted. The thing about killing blow, however, is that your opponent has to hit the Vampire, and against a Lord, that is not exactly easy to do, especially since killing blows do not cancel Ward Saves. (What bugs me is that the rulebook I that have doesn't say whether the killing blow cancels regeneration or not, or would that be considered a save?)

Yes, you must always overwhelm opponets with thriller dancing zombies

Well, if we follow the rules for regeneration, unless it was a flaming killing blow, you would get to regenerate, except you would come back with only 1 wound, as killing blow gets rid of all your wounds. Essentially your head comes back, but it was lopped off just a minute ago, even if your undead, thats still going to hurt.

Eh, you can still make a Vampire Lord a lvl.3 Wizard, thats pretty damn good, with the ward save and regeneration. Mount him on a Winged Nightmare, he's a mobile spellcaster who can match the daemon for speed, and selectively engage him.
