He is, for the most part, behind the units (same as the Necros). If I didn't make that clear, I am so screwed for this game, my list relying on it and all.

This is a tricky one. At first I thought the chaos would win easily then I realised just how many zombies there are.

I don't think the Knights will be able to kill the zombies quicker than they will be raised and that having so many units and the ability to create more will make the undead hard to flank and be as maneuverable as the chaos in there own kind of way. That and then there's the wolves who i expect will be able to divert things and be a nuisance.

It looks like an uphill struggle for the chaos to get past a seemingly endless amount of zombies so vote for AFG and his VC.

Easy win to AFG's Zombies. He has enough sacrificial lambs to set up flank charges on those Knight units and slowly drag them down (providing he gets a character in combat as well to cause some wounds) and the rest of the chaos units don't have the killiness to wade through 30+ zombies.

(hang on one second, can vampires use armour and still cast spells?? I've rummaged and trawled through my VC army book and cannot find anywhere where it says they can)

The knights will have at full strength 16 str 5+ attacks with characters and 6 str 4 attacks with mounts. Zombies are toughness 2 and I 1, swinging back at -1 WS. Either of our dice could crap out, but I'm betting on my 20+ attacks.

I am not sure that even with the mass of attacks hitting those zombies that enough will die for a full collapse of a unit, and without that, I can't see the zombie line breaking, especially with the magic possibly making the zombies asf WS6 attackers.

AFG's zombies to get a close hard fought win

ninja out
