I'm thinking about slowly building up a VC army relying heavily on Ghouls. What I was thinking of so far was:

Vampire(General) w/Ghoulkin, Summon Ghouls, The Flayed Hauberk, and Sword of Battle
180 Points

Vampire w/Avatar of Death, Summon Ghouls and Book of Arkhan
170 Points

13xCrypt Ghouls+Crypt Ghast
120 Points

13xCrypt Ghouls+Crypt Ghast
120 Points

Corpse Cart w/Unholy Lodestone
100 Points

Thats 630 Points so far, but nothing really that fast or hits that hard. I was thinking of getting a "Oh crap" unit that would support the core of the force here. Like some Cairn Wraiths+Banshee, a Varghulf, or maybe even a Black Coach(not sure about this since I want my PD to get more Ghoulies).

Anyone have any suggestions? Do I really need Zombies? Maybe not to buy as a unit, but to get from the "Raise Dead" spell?
