The Zombies loudly moan while they march forward, and the Fell Bats hover over the army like a dark and ominous cloud. With the Vampire Counts, it’s also more intimidating. Just like in past titles, it’s always entertaining to see your units in formation on the battlefield. You can cast a seal that delivers a significant amount of damage to a charging enemy, or if the battle isn’t going your way, you can heal units to provide a small boost in health. Your commanding units can use a variety of dark magic spells, as well. If you are low on units, you can use dark magic to raise certain units from the dead, such as Skeleton Warriors, Zombies and flying Fell Bats.
This is especially useful when invading an enemy territory. The vampires’ war chest runs on necromancy, a form of dark magic.
