black knight heavy army

[Beastmaster Recrum.]

The plan for this army is for the black knights to go where they want due to the vampire lords dominance of the magic phase. I will be doing lots of 2 dice casting at +4 to cast.
The wolves are there as miss-directors to stop the knights getting flanked by anything nasty.

 The plan is to mainly win by points denial. The knights should be hitting on 3+ with re-rolls every turn due to casting vanhels on them. I get a average of 8 power dice a turn. Casting on average 4 spells at power 11. Seems decent.

The lord will be bunkering in a ghoul unit situated behind the other two ghoul units. With the knight units on the flanks.

 The only thing I can swap out without changing what the army does is the black coach really. I wanted to use it because of how quicker it gets buffed up in 8th.

not sure how this list would do against a strong gun line. i don't think favorable since the units tend to be on the small side.

If they can wipe out a unit in one go it will be pretty nasty. However the list will be making combat turn 2 and units will be getting healed very quickly so it is not all bad.

with no more partials it could be very back for your big blocks of troops. killing an entire enemy unit in a turn is not hard to do anymore

Ghouls are pretty sweet.  But it might be best to make one unit of them a little larger to maybe make a solid anvil.
