A nice rule of thumb is that a Necromancer with the Liber Mortis is a threat that takes the entirety of the Empire to reliably put down.
That's why you mass embrace vampires. They literally all hero tier fighters and casters. I genuinely think that could work to take out nagarond.
Omegahugger is always in favour of mass embracing.
Pretty sure even a newbie vampire is much faster and stronger than a elf. That elf from Felix and gotrek books(sob) was flashstepping like she was in a anime. While a mass embrace might be weaker I would still bet on a vampire over a scrub like dread spear or whatever.
I dunno, I think Dark Glee and "I will show them!" seems more like Max's jam. Mathilde isn't that kind of supervillain. She'd be smugly petting her white dog, and maybe making some puns. Like,
And best of all, you don't even put yourself out of a job, because now you get to have fun with the flock of vampires.
One problem at a time, I didn't say it was a good idea just that it is possible.
"What's happened to the Dawi Zharr... Is naught but mistery."
Mistery inside an enigma wrapped in a burrito.
"I visited Morr's Garden once. They made a good salad."
Mathilde: "I visited Uzkulak once. I didn't approve of what they were doing, so Hashut them down."
Yep.
It "hits" harder.
There's a very very very finite number of people who have ever been any good at corralling mass numbers of vampires, and every single one by my reckoning is one of the founding vampires.
Should be fine for the short term, will be problem after a few decades.
Nagash did it, but he wasn't actually very good at it. Von-Carstein-Before-He-Was-Von-Carstein immediately figured out that he could just be really bad at fighting, get himself killed, and Nagash would already have been overthrown by the time the ring that Nagash had given him had revived him.

Maybe it has a scaled-up Sound spell on it that shouts out a cool attack name describing its effect, and the rest is placebo effect and Warp-belief-drives-reality shenanigans.
So what you're saying is that we should save that plan until we figure out how to found our own bloodline, got it.
