Von Carstein Vampire Lord is a lord for the Vampire Counts added in the Aye-Aye! Patch for Total War: Warhammer II.
In campaign mode, they are recruited via the Bloodlines mechanic. They provide access to Sylvanian Crossbowmen and Sylvanian Handgunners, the only ranged units available to the Vampire Counts.
Description
Out of all the Vampires that have ever been known to man, the cursed bloodline of the von Carsteins is by-far the most legendary. Handsome, arrogant, charismatic, prideful and ambitious, the von Carsteins are the true aristocracy of the night. It is said that the history of the von Carstein family can be traced back to the time of Sigmar Heldenhammer and the founding of the Empire. Indeed, for in a way, there is some truth to this, for it was Vlad von Carstein himself that was present during that ancient time, giving Sigmar vital instructions on how to defeat Nagash before the gates of Altdorf itself.
