about Vampire magick being the only magick Vampire Civs can use the Vampires have Necros and Necros should have normal necromancy instead of Vampire spells and Necrarch are also Necromancers. maybe you can have Vampire spells and Necro spells for Vamp Civs where all Vamps (except Strigoi) can learn Vamp magic and all Necros can learn Necromancy with Necrarach being able to learn both (tho Necrarch Vamp special abilitys are to make them better at Necromancy and don't realy give them other abilitys other than better Necromancy spell use so maybe they don't get Vamp magick just necromancy)
do tomb Kings even have Necromancer units? and on a sepreat post I sudgested Sylvania and Lahmia be:
Sylvania: Von Carstein Blood Dragon and Strigoi
Lahmia: Lahmia Necrarch
because Lahmia and Necrarch probably wouldn't have Vamp Magick but just Necromancy spells. (by Vampire spells I mean the speacal Vampire abilitys that will most likely be called spells) (Necrarch is advanced necro skills and Lahmia would be to hard to implement or explain.)
unless you plan for Vampire Necromancy to be a little les powerfull than normal Necromancy in that case all Vampires have Vampire Necromancy Necros have normal Necromancy and Necrachs have both, because all Vampires except Necrach are a little less good at Necromancy than Master Necromancers (Necrarch are better)
for Necro spell ability it goes from worst to best:
Necromancer lvl 1 wizard
Vampire Count lvl 1 wizard
Necrarch Vampire Thrall lvl 1 wizard + modifiers
Vampire Lord lvl 2 wizard
Necrarch Vampire Count lvl 2 wizard + modifiers
Master Necromancer lvl 3 wizard
Necrarch Vampire Lord lvl 3 wizard + modifiers
modifiers include
extra skeletons and Zombies when he summons them
less chance to fizzle (for thoes that read the book I get this from +1 power dice and +1 to tottal dice rolled per spell)
secound chance to cast if spell fizzled or otherwise didn't work
spell range increased for spells with range (doesn't matter because the real life range + would be about 36 feet not actualy 1 space in Civ 4)
these modifyers are Necrarchs speacl Vampire powers
with all the +s Necrarch gets in Necromancy (they do get a -2 Weapon skill and don't use weapons and armor unless they are magickal)
so - Strength and can't use metal weapons
unless Tomb Kings use Liches you can use the Lich graphics as the Necrarch graphics.
