Check out the Greebo Halloweenie team for Strigoyan. All you'd need to get would be a larger miniature for the lord. |

Yeah, I've seen those; there's only one vampire though, and he doesn't look at all Strigoyan or Crypt Ghoul-ish. But if you're willing to interpret the fluff more loosely, yeah, you could use them. |

It comes with 2 Vampires and you can pick up more if needed, or just use the wights and pick up a couple more of them. You're going to have to bend the fluff for Strigs since GW is never going to release pint sized Strigs |

Nope. 1 Vamp. 4 skellies, 4 zombies, 2 wolves, 2 wights, 2 Frankensteins, 2 ghosty things, 2 tombstones, 1 mummy. And bending the fluff is one option, but you don't have to. I'd just convert models to fit the fluff.
But that reminds me of Impact's Deadlings teams. Again, not very close to the fluff, but they're another cutesy mini-undead team. And I think their Ghoulings are more appropriate as Crypt Ghouls. http://www.impactminiatures.com/index.php?option=deadling |

I cannot find anything on exactly how the secret weapon roll works, it states its target and when to roll, but not the amount of dice or if you should roll over or under the target.
It does not even specify what happens if you fail the roll... |

Good point, I will clarify that for the next update. |

Awesome tribute team. Bets on which player opposing teams will target most? |

OOOOooooomg. Tray swank.
Now I may actually have to play stunty.
A couple minor nits jump out:
o In the "Stunty Doctrine" section (p. 2), there's a sentence that talks about "...not worrying about the final score line" - it's the final score, or the bottom line, not both combined. Just style, but still jarring to read.
o Under "Secret Weapons" (starting p. 5), it says "The following rolls are made after each drive for any weapon that was on the pitch..." - but it's never made clear if that's a roll to ban the weapon or allow it to return. (It can be inferred from parts of the fluff text, but...) |

Scoreline is fine. Although yes, final scoreline is a bit of a redundancy. |
