My favorite strategy with Vlad and Isabella, is to kill Zhufbar or Azhag. Then give those mountain territories to Ungrim for an alliance.nothing like a horde of nearly unkillable zombies making a wall for 4 grudge throwers.

Or just get play with helman ghost and go with the Zombie doomsack

This was very helpful. Honestly, i got carried through the campaign by those giant mohawk bats. I just kept spamming them, and it just kept working.

Loving these guides. Only 200+ hours in game, but I still learn something new every time I watch these or play.

Yeah im a game 1 day one player an the vamps just hit different campaigns with them are just to damn fun

I got another tip. In your late game when you are rich, make a change in your army. Field a dommstack of Blood Knights and you will absolutely destroy your enemies. Just rush the enemy army with your elite heavy cavalry in a full scale charge. That’s so much fun.

They really are fun, but most people hate them...

It's kinda dumb and counter intuitive that you get blood kisses using banshees and not, you know, vampires lmao It's such an easy fix too, just give assault to the banshee and assassinate to the vampire hero. It's also a cool decision since vampire heroes make armies much better, you have to make a choice between fighting better and farming more blood kisses. Another thing, they should definitely make vassalization easier. Right now, it's basically impossible to vassalize anyone, especially as VC.

@LordForwind

4 ай бұрын

yeah its really odd. I have yet to find a game that makes vassals work well. The closest is tribal client states in CK3 which leave after the death of your ruler. All other vassal systems make it almost impossible for vassals to leave peacefully

@@Hades_Space_Engineer yeah I like that mod, lately it's not as fun but overall a great mod. Don't know about vassalizing in that off hand

Not bad at all. I'd add that the Blood Knights are arguably the best all-purpose cavalry in the game once they get The Hunger. Sure, they are no match for Grail Knights in hammer charging or Grail Guardians for tanking, but Blood Knights are absolute terrors when the loose on in the field for slamming into already engaged enemies flank/rear, and the hunger makes them VERY hard to kill.

i have a question, is there a way to resurrect dead legendary hero? While playing as Heinrich Kemmler I confederated Vlad, in a few turns he died with Isabela in his army. Vlad was good to go shortly after, but Isabela truly died.

At my last game, i didnt do any hero building before like turn 40 , i got some necromancer building and 1 vampire building that's all at turn 77. The reason was that I would rather spal skeletons spams and conquer everything around me and do building once im super rich but now its quite late, and i wonder if its better to rush the heroes building, what are your thoughts? Because they cost like 10 000 dark magic

Well the heroes are going to be better at higher difficulty and they get you blood kisses and thus immortal lords, since vampires really rely on OP lords I would say get heroes, specifically banshees!
