VAMPIRE COUNT TACTICS

WAIT AND SEE
A extremely effective tactic against Bretonnians and Chaos Warriors and also against Skaven, Orcs'n'Goblins, Lizardmen and Chaos Dwarfs. This tactic do not work against defencive armies.
So, here it is. Have your big unit of skeletons even bigger than usual and drop all other units except for about 8-10 Vampire Bats and the Black Coach. Have a Carstein Vampire Lord with the Carstein Ring and send him wandering up to your enemys flank. Fly high with the Vampire Bats and join with the Vampire Lord to slaughter any ranged threats and slower infantry. All the time just stand still with your Skeletons with the banner of defiance and its character loaded first rank and wait for a unit to charge you. Even though you are not expecting to move much, always take VDM to avoid charges in your flanks - no rank bonus spells doom. With a skeleton champion with the Black Gem to fuck up your enemys general or hero, your own characters will beat your enemy in hth, and even if not, your +7 combat result will beat your enemy. All units beaten by fear causing enemies always break.
Anyway, you might get charged in your flank, but keep your skeleton unit 60models+, effectively denying you opponent any VP's while your Vampire bats and lords kill you the VP's you need to win.
