Were they significantly better pre-CRP? |

The general theory is that the best coach to grace the SWL was coaching them at the time. |

Not having played them in earlier rule sets I would say that on the face of it they are better due to the OFAB changes. |

no longer being able to drain thralls of all their tasty blood while on a feeding frenzy is so much better. |

The bigger advantage for vamps in the current rule set over 4.0 is the way team value is worked out. The current rule set is far better suited to sides who have a few awesome players, than a spread of skills.
Vamps are better now than they used to be.
Although didn't hypno gaze used to be a straight agility roll?
I completely agree that Erikikers was the best coach that played. I still think that you can't call Vamps useless when they have won twice.
edit: on another note, would someone mind giving out the BB code that allows you to collapse and expand the text below it? just wanting to tidy up my sides bio |

Good to see team ALIEN(s) onboard. Name doesn't flow as well as it could (imo).
"Alliance of League Individuals from Exotic Nations"
could be
"Alliance of Legendary Incumbents of Exiled Nation States" |

DDS, you'll find all you need to know on the Introduction to BBCode page.
You can just copy & paste the parts you want and edit it for your content.
btw, if you edit it on a Notes page, you'll get a live update of how it looks. Very handy! |

They were quite similar.
Vampires just won the Black Cup by the way.
In my opinion they are very strong and can outplay anyone if coached right. Erikekers was able to do that. |

Its good to see i started something. I was mainly saying that i wasn't dissapointed with polemarch on the vamps. He had a good try and a tough team to manage. |
