Power[]
"They're incredibly powerful physically, for the first year or so, and if they're allowed to bring strength to bear they can crush an older vampire with ease. But they are slaves to their thirst, and thus predictable."
with the armies vast numbers and physical strength, they are difficult to destroy, but through their uncontrollable nature and thirst, they are deemed predictable but also cunning, as they will expect their enemy to go for the obvious kill
