Starting Roster Vampire Team – 1.000.000 GP
All Vampires, 2 ReRolls
Quantity | Player/Item | Cost |
---|---|---|
2 | Vampire Thrower | 220k |
2 | Vampire Blitzer | 220k |
2 | Vampire Runner | 200k |
6 | Thrall Linemen | 240k |
2 | ReRolls | 120k |
Total: | 960k |
Having all six Vampires means you can only afford 2 ReRolls. You can opt for 5 Thralls (960k) and use the remaining 40k for an extra Thrall, Vargheist savings, or Dedicated Fans. While 6 Vampires increase Bloodlust risk and require careful Thrall management, it allows immediate SPP gain for all Vampires, creating a strong lineup from the start.
Vampires, 3 ReRolls, 7 Thralls
Quantity | Player/Item | Cost |
---|---|---|
2 | Vampire Thrower | 220k |
1 | Vampire Blitzer | 110k |
2 | Vampire Runner | 200k |
7 | Thrall Linemen | 280k |
3 | ReRolls | 180k |
Total: | 990k |
Drop a Blitzer for a 3rd ReRoll and a 7th Thrall for more reliability. Prioritize Throwers for Bloodlust 2+ and Strength 4/AV9+. This setup offers 10k for Dedicated Fans, enhancing your cash flow for future purchases.
Vargheist, 3 ReRolls
Quantity | Player/Item | Cost |
---|---|---|
2 | Vampire Thrower | 220k |
1 | Vampire Blitzer | 110k |
1 | Vampire Runner | 100k |
6 | Thrall Linemen | 240k |
1 | Vargheist | 150k |
3 | ReRolls | 180k |
Total: | 1000k |
- Quantity: 2 Vampire Throwers, 1 Vampire Blitzer, 1 Vampire Runner, 6 Thrall Linemen, 1 Vargheist, 3 ReRolls
- Total Cost: 1000k
A Vargheist, 2 Throwers, 1 Blitzer, and 1 Runner with 3 ReRolls is a balanced choice. The Vargheist is a powerful addition, and 3 ReRolls cover Bloodlusts and other critical actions. This setup balances strength and reliability.
Full Vampires, Vargheist, 0 ReRolls
Quantity | Player/Item | Cost |
---|---|---|
2 | Vampire Thrower | 220k |
2 | Vampire Blitzer | 220k |
2 | Vampire Runner | 200k |
5 | Thrall Linemen | 200k |
1 | Vargheist | 150k |
Total: | 990k |
For an extreme approach, this build maximizes Bloodlust potential with 6 Vampires and a Vargheist but no ReRolls. Buy a spare Thrall to handle Bloodlust demands. Prioritize earning ReRolls with match winnings, though this setup is risky and requires careful management.
Although Vampire teams include a number of extremely capable players, they are weighed down by the Vampires’ unreliability. Although they should be focused on the game, their attention is often diverted to their hunger and, before you know it, they’re off for a quick bite!
Team Summary
![](https://nufflezone.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Bob-and-Jim-blood-bowl.png)
Jim: Bob, have you heard of the Vampires in Blood Bowl?
Bob: No, I haven’t. What’s so special about them?
Jim: Well, at first glance, Vampires look like one of the best teams in the game. They have high strength and agility, and they even come with Regeneration and Hypnotic Gaze.
Bob: That does sound impressive. What about their backup players?
Jim: They have cheap Thralls to fill out the team, and they’re probably the best equipped to break a cage and get to the ball carrier. However, there’s a catch.
Bob: And what’s that?
Jim: The Vampires have Bloodlust, which can make them unpredictable and sometimes fatal to your own players. They also don’t start with any blocking skills, and team dice rolls are expensive for this team.
Bob: That does sound like a problem. So, are Vampires a good team for beginners?
Jim: No, I wouldn’t recommend Vampires to novice coaches. They’re probably one of the most difficult teams to train and they require a lot of planning and management to be used effectively. It’s guaranteed frustration for a beginner coach.
