Question re Vampire Teams

Post by Malthor »

Hi,

Unfortunately, BB Mag #4 is not available yet in my part of the world and the only info we have here on the Vampire team is what has been posted on the FBBL site.

Can anyone tell me if they have access to Apothecaries or some other means to heal all the poor dregs/linemen?

Also, when the Vampire Lord dies and another Vamp is promoted, does the newly promoted VL gain +1 Str and assumably lose their Off For a Bite penalty?

Thanks,

Malthor

Yes you can hire an apothecary but only for the human thralls.
And yes the vampire with the most SPP, gains +1 ST +1AV, and loose the OFAB, right away, even during a match.

Thanks for that!

The listing for the Vampire team at FBBL says the Vampire Lord has 8 AV - the same as the other Vampires.

So this is wrong?

(For any wondering, yes, I will be buying the Mag when it comes out, even if already manage to get the rules for the Vampire team beforehand).

Yes, it's wrong.

Vamp lord 150k 6/5/4/9 HG, regen
Vampires 110k 6/4/4/8 HG, regen, OFAB

Note that the vamps in #4 use the "official" OFAB (1-3 miss drive, 4+ set up as normal), not the COFAB rule here (which is being tested in MBBL)
