VAMPIRE BAT Vampire Bats have developed a taste for blood, turning them into frenzied attackers in the midst of battle.
Vampire Bat Ambush, Magic A; Fly; Poison Attack. ZOMBIE Zombies are fresh corpses brought back to life by foul necromancy. Being more recently dead than Skeletons they retain more of their intellect and are more like living humans, although they are totally under the will of the Necromancer whose conjurations created them. Although rejuvenated by magic they continue to decay. Their flesh is rank and tattered and caked with blood.
Zombie Fear 3. SKELETAL STEED Skeletal Steeds are ghastly creatures. They were once normal horses, but when they died their flesh decomposed. When all that was left of them was their bones, evil Necromancers raised them from the dead.
Skeletal Steed Fear 5; Regenerate 1. Skeletal Steeds can be ridden by any Skeletons, Wights, Necromancers, Liches or Vampires. GHOUL Ghouls are the descendants of insane and evil hearted cannibals - men who ate the flesh of the dead. Over the years they have degenerated into a race that is no longer human. They live amongst places of the dead, feeding on corpses and sometimes attacking lone travellers or vulnerable groups.
Ghoul Break; Fear 4. SKELETONS Skeleton Warriors claw themselves out of the earth to attack the living. They wield rusty swords and axes, and mouldering remnants of armour still cling to their frame.

Ghost Chill 1; Ethereal -1; Fear 6. WIGHTS Although their bodies are decayed leaving only bones and tattered flesh, Wights are held together by evil magic so strong that it has endured by centuries.

Wight Fear 7. Wight Lord Fear 8; Magic Armour; Magic Weapon. BLACK KNIGHTS Black Knights are long-dead warriors who are tied to the land of the living by dark necromantic magic. They ride into battle on undead Nightmares.
Black Knight Fear 7. Hell Knight Fear 8; Magic Armour; Magic Weapon. Nightmare Fear 6. NIGHTMARE Nightmares are carcasses of great warhorses brought back to life by necromantic arts. Balefire glows in their eyes and their decomposed bodies are rotted and foul. The sickening stench of death hangs around them as they gallop into battle, crushing the living beneath their mouldy hooves.
Nightmare Fear 6. Nightmares can be ridden by any Necromancers, Black Knights or Vampires. MUMMY Mummies are protected by powerful magics to preserve them and cheat death itself. They are deadly opponents, capable of delivering crushing blows upon their enemies.
Mummy Fear 7; Tomb Rot (1D3). Attacking a Mummy with a source of fire causes an extra +1D6 Wounds damage with each hit. Tomb Rot Mummies can cause Tomb Rot, their mere presence rotting nearby creature's flesh. Any Warrior who ends the turn adjacent to a Mummy takes an extra 1Dn Wounds (where n is the number in brackets after the Tomb Rot entry), with no modifiers for Toughness or armour. Tomb Rot is Fatal Damage. NECROMANCERS A Necromancer is an evil wizard with powers over the world of the dead. His magic enables him to extend his own life for centuries and to raise corpses to create Skeletons and Zombies.
