    The Cloak of Mist and Shadows has its downside, a serious one for a vampire expecting to see some combat. Its user can only attack other ethereal creatures. But give the obsidian amulet to a wraith, and then you have a nigh invulnerable character.

    The list is solid. I don't know if I'd take a second unit of fell bats unless I knew my opponent's army composition, or had a good idea of it. Otherwise, I'd say it's a very good build.

    Are you giving the GG a magic banner?

    You should be able to summon scads of skeletons and/or zombies to get in those necessary flank charges.

    If he's playing all demon, you should outnumber. That along with the summoning should allow you to work demonic instability in your favor.

    Good luck! It's a good list that should serve you well.

    I believe that his list will look simular to this

    Lord of Change

    3*16 Horrors (With champion sorcerors)

    2*3 Screamers

    2 Chariots of Tzeench

    This is the army I've seen him use before (ish)
    It generates a lot of power and dispel dice, so magic maybe an issue. I wasn't going to give them a banner no, however I am using the 2 fell bat groups to attack his screamers

    maybe some black knights?

    The lord of change will be a pain up your ass man, engauge asap.

    The chariots should be charged.

    The horrors are sucky in CC.

    So bascially just engauge all of his units power he engauges you ^_^

    Which is y black knights might be a good idea.

    Yikes, a greater demon. He'll have your lord beaten on str, toughness, wounds, and initiative. The only advantage you'll have is on weapon skill, but the obsidian amulet should help. Are you thinking of taking your blood dragon toe-to-toe with his lord? If so, I'd drop Master Strike since killing blow won't work on him. If you had points for the sword of striking, or even the sword of might so that you'll wound on 4s instead of 5s. Personally, I'd avoid the thing and try to bog it down in throw away units.

    Otherwise, you should be pretty strong, don't you think? You'll have flank charges where he won't. I'd just want a strategy for dealing with those chariots as they're pretty tough.

    Good luck with the game. My friend has put the fear of demon armies in me and they can be tough when played well. And yeah, I can see how he will have a lot of magic!

    Well the game turned out to actually be against an empire gun line!!!, However I managed a winning draw, (won by 258pts). Vanhanse's Dance is kick ass!!!! My blood Dragon killed a wizard Lord and two units, before being cruely cut down by the Hell blaster!!!!

    All in all a good game!!
