	* '''Ossified:''' Attacks targeting this model reduce their AP value by 1, to a minimum of AP(0).

	* '''Guardians:''' Your basic troops are quite powerful, with a 4+ to quality and defense on top of everything else.

This makes them more potent in melee (especially if you give one of them Dual Falchions for a default AP(2) before factoring in War Aspect), but they remain just as vulnerable, if not more so, than the mere Guardians.

== Why Play Ossified Undead ==
The Ossified Undead are an unrelenting tide of deathless iron.

'''PROS:'''

* Ossified reduces the impact of AP.
* Undead negates many of the issues with Morale
* Some pretty strong quality values for your army

'''CONS:'''

* Very narrow unit selection
* (Almost) Your entire army is Slow
* Shooting is near-nonexistent

== Army Special Rules ==

* '''Arcane Power:''' This model may block spells as if it were a Wizard. If it already is a Wizard then it gets +2 to spell block rolls.
* '''Artisan of Shards:''' Any attached unit get the Regeneration special rule.
* '''Eternal Duty:''' Any attached unit get the Fearless and Furious special rules.
* '''Harvest Bones:''' Once per activation, pick one friendly unit within 6”, which gets Regeneration next time it takes wounds.
* '''Ossified:''' Attacks targeting this model reduce their AP value by 1, to a minimum of AP(0). While ineffective against hordes of basic Hand Weapons, it will make things like Great Weapons less powerful.
* '''Swift:''' This model may ignore the Slow rule. Unlike Unstoppable, this is only given to the model who buys it.
* '''Undead:''' Whenever this unit takes a morale test, it is passed automatically. Then, roll as many dice as remaining models/tough in the unit, and for each result of 1-2 the unit takes one wound, which can’t be regenerated.
* '''Unstoppable:''' Any attached unit may ignore the Slow rule.
* '''War Aspect:''' When this model fights in melee, they randomly get either Rending or AP(+1)

== Wizard Spells ==

* '''Enslave (4+):''' Enemy unit within 12" takes -1 to hit in melee. No better way to keep your bony boys unharmed than making them unable to get hurt.
* '''Undermine (4+):''' One enemy unit within 12" takes 2 AP 2 hits.
* '''Command (5+):''' One friendly unit within 12" can immediately move 6". The fact that your army is Slow just proves how invaluable this spell is.
* '''Deadly Contract (5+):''' One enemy model within 12" takes 4 hits. While they lack AP, it's a good way to at least dent a hero or brute.
* '''Deception (6+):''' Two enemy units within 6" take 6 AP 1 hits each. Way stronger than most spells like this and still able to flatten mobs.
* '''Drain (6+):''' Enemy unit within 18" takes -2 to hit in shooting. Considering how easily your army can get caught in the open, that -2 is incredibly powerful.

== Unit Analysis ==

=== Heroes ===

* '''Herald of Death:''' Your premier hero, gifted with Poison as well as War Aspect to guarantee some measure of AP. That said, it is merely a 4+ for quality and defense, which might see it suffer a bit against dedicated beatsticks.

=== Monsters ===

* '''Harvester Beast:''' A literal flurry of attacks with an incredibly vital purpose: These guys share Regeneration with nearby units while also benefiting from it. This alone can make them a powerful addition, as they can reinforce your troops to tank even more abuse. If you plan on fighting other monsters, then the Mace Arms can make its attacks more impactful for a few less attacks. You can also buy Spew Death, granting a Breath Attack to handle more crowds.

=== Artillery ===

* '''Crawler Catapult:''' Your singular piece of artillery, thankfully mobile but Slow. Thankfully, it has outstanding range and gives you some much-needed crowd control with a rapid-fire Poison hit.
