OOOOhhhh god this is sooooo very sexy.
Comes out in two weeks. I think i will share my roommate's VC army with him and buy models for it. I feel sort of bad he got the old garbage black coach when the new one may be coming in a month or so but whatever. Many new plastic kits instead of metal or finecast crap. Lots of monstrous infantry (one unit that flies and is like a mini-version of the varghulf and then a more bad ass version of the crypt ghouls) and big units coming (for lords and as rare choices) as well as a new cavalry unit. At least a couple new lord choices are coming. We also have a bunch of named characters as well. Please, please, please, release some of the named bad asses from the previous army book. I want to see the dude that dueled and killed a dragon in 1 on 1 combat and sucked its blood to overcome his thirst for blood, zacharias on zombie dragon in a new kit, the bretonnian vampire red duke and a couple others. Please don't just focus on the van carsteins this time. There were so many other vampires in the lore that got absolutely shafted.

Knowing 8th edition army books they'll probably take out most of the banners and items so that you have to use the main rulebook's crap. Sure a lot of the army books had garbage items nobody used but making us have to use rulebook items prevents faction variety. I don't know it's a mild complaint i have. Not to mention orcs and goblins got 3 good banners and you need a BSB for each one i think. Now since you can only have one BSB in your army that meant you could only use one of the army book's banners and the rest had to come from the 8th edition rulebook. Pretty lame guys i've gotta say that. Sure all 3 banners were cool but what's the point of only using one race specific banner a game. That's just pathetic.
