Control and horrors

[shonuf]

Hi,

I am new to the forums, haven't tried MP dominions yet since I was living in brazil when I discovered the game, and my internet was too unstable for that.. Anyway, I was trying out this interesting tactic with LA Ulm that seemed really promising, but I couldn't get to work.

What I tried to do was to create a communion with 10 or so initiates of the second order as communion master, and a bunch of vampire counts - one master and 10 or so slaves.

The initiates were set to cast communion master, control, control, control, control. The VC master was set to sabbath master, hell power. The slaves were just slaves.

The idea was that the 11x hell powered guys would generate masses of horrors that my initiates would cast control on to steal them over to my side, thus quickly generating a vast army of horrors.

My initiates happily cast control on the horrors, but to no avail. Is it because I can't get through the MR roll, or are they simply impossible to control?

Edit: All my mages died in the test battle, and I'm too lazy to build a new army to test again...

Edit 2: I tried first with hellbind heart, but that wouldn't target the horrors at all. I guess enslave is the same?
