There you have it!
It doesn't have the ususal tricks (ASF BG, ROH, POK etc..) but I do have a solid magic phase as well as 50 shots a turn and when combined with a couple of choppy characters the spearmen blocks work quite well.
I think it'll be a challenging list to play with.
Any thoughts of advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!

You can take your vamp lord on zombie dragon, 48 graveguard, blackcoach, 3 wraiths, 2 units of dogs and your 3 units of 10 piddly zombies and shove them up your f&$%ing a$$.....

Worst game of warhammer I've ever played.....

Its a finely balanced list. I would drop a chariot for more goodies on your characters. Engine of the gods will hurt your non ward save characters, and a bigger bang out of your characters would be good too, so AoD and CD is an idea.

Thanks for the feedback. It's true that my characters don't pack a massive punch so I will have to think very carefully before picking my fights. I thought about droping a chariot but I've found in 99% of my games that chariots work best in pairs and with two units of spears they provide a nice punch just in case I find my spearblocks in prolonged combats.
As always stupidity be will a factor I will have to plan for not to mention getting the most out of my magic phase as it is one of my strongest phases.
Look if I don't play like an absolute muppet I should at least give my opponent a run for their money, I hope.....
Cheers!

You could drop the crossbows on your dark riders to at least get your general a sword of might.
