I also prefer to take undead in my army, but instead of vampires, I choose spawns (after all, the only archer in the Necropolis). Plus, there's free space left in the army for vamps resurrected by necromancy!!

damn why did you reveal the secret strategy *sob* :smile35:
we had 4 heroes each, man, and he took 2nd place
in 4 there were no opponents for chaos (on the hero)

regarding the subject
2 heroes vampires is cool
3 heroes vampires is just free powered creeping, nothing more
who could you scare with vampires in 3 (necs in 3 are not Castle)
4 vampires together with spawns (regarding loss of turns, in more than half of the cases, separating a detachment of spawns before creeping allows you to avoid losing the army's overall movement speed)
5 vampire is a quite balanced good strike unit
considering that necs pump up a lot of defense and little attack, it's not hard to oppose them
