===The Restless Dead===

Are you disappointed by the lack of skeletons in your warband? Do you think sprinting is for sissies? Want a leader who can by mid game have 8 wounds?
Then restless dead is for you. 

Leader:

* Lich: spellslinging, wyrdstone guzzling liche that CAN sprint, wear armour and never equip non magical weapons- this guy is your bread and butter. After the first few matches building up his wounds and pitiful melee score he quickly becomes a force to be reckoned with, aswell as the ultimate escape artist.

Heroes:

* Necromancer: what's that you say, 2 casters? He like the liche uses lore of undead. Is your warbands only living member.

* Grave guard: 35gc, gets you almost baseline human stats but undead (so bs2 and crap initiative) , they also have the fantastic inbuilt ability wight blades: where any attack that rolls a 6 automagically wounds (still roll for crit chance if applicable) 

Henchmen:

Wight: 30gc. It has a human stat line, but bs2/ws2.  these very crappy skeletons are useful for only one thing, hiring in single groups and praying for a lads got talent roll as they are your only xp gaining minion. I recommend 2 clubs, or a sword and a club if you are feeling generous.

Skeleton:
Can’t gain xp. This 20 gold skeleton has a weighty zombie stat line but with bs2, and in theory can be equipped with a bow. Treat them like equippable zombies and send them to die in droves.

Zombie:
It’s a zombie what do you expect? 15 gold and not needing equipment is very good for padding warband numbers though.

Scarecrow: fast moving animated constructs and a conversionists dream. 65g for a t3 (6 against shooting and magic but flammable) s3 model with 1 wound, 2 attacks and can recollect non fire based injury rolls. They also need to be tethered to either your necromancer or lich meaning if the tetherering sorcerer suffers a wound then you take an ld test or these guys go out of action. Fluffy, but pretty shitty in the crunch.

Bone Goliath: this bad boy costs 225 to construct (and sacrificing wounds from your liche, Unless you build him on warband creation, in which case he’s just the gold). S5, T5, 3 attacks and non magical injuries discarded on a 4+ This guy eats ogres for breakfast and can absorb approx 1 gajillion enemy shooters fire. Get him on warband start if you can.

Building a warband:

Liche, light armour and shield

Necromancer

3x graveguard( maximise their average stats by giving them 2 weapons early game, hide armour if you feel extra generous) more attacks=more chance of auto wound., also they can equip bows if you have the cash.

3 wights with dual clubs.

As many zombies or skeletons as you desire.

Alternate warband: big boiz

Lich

Necromancer 

Graveguard x3 1x dagger 1x club.

Bone colossus
