From beyond death the Vampire comes, striking anywhere they please. They dominate the dark and forgotten corners of the Empire and the cursed lands of Sylvania.

Vampire Counts

The Carstein Ring grants Vlad a 4+ ward save. Furthermore, the first time Vlad is removed from play, roll a D6 at the end of the phase. On a roll of 2+, he is immediately returned to 'life' with a single Wound. Vlad must then be placed in the front rank of a friendly unit anywhere within 12" of the point where he fell (even one in close combat). If there is no such unit for Vlad to join, he is removed as a casualty.

The Carstein Ring

Close combat attacks made with Blood Drinker are resolved at +1 Strength. In addition, whilst Vlad wields Blood Drinker, he restores lost Wounds on a score of 4+ for the purposes of The Hunger special rule.

Infantry

Infantry includes all units of foot troops, be they Men, Elves, Goblin, Orcs, Zombies or any of the other anthropomorphic races that inhabit the Warhammer world. Infantry will normally be the core of your Warhammer army, the troops upon which you rely to get the job done. The basic rules of Warhammer are designed around infantry, so no further rules apply.

Special Character

The Warhammer army books each include the rules for several Special Characters within their pages. They are famous, named war leaders and mighty mages, tales of whose legendary (or nefarious) deeds have travelled far and wide, such as the Emperor Karl Franz, Grom the Paunch of Misty Mountain, the infamous Vampire Lord Vlad von Carstein and many more besides. Special Characters are exceptional individuals but, more importantly for our army selection purposes, they are unique – each can be included in an army only once.
