The walking dead

[Dhaan]

Hi there,

i am planning to make an role playing type of undead army, which should be capable for a no loss playthrough. I dont have much experience with them though.

'Role playing type of' means i dont want to go simply one stack Dark Knights or such.

Do you have any experiences, suggestions what units and items would be a good way to play through?

At the moment i am thinking about:

Black Knights
Ancient Vampires
Vampires
Necromancers
X

My biggest concerns are keeping them alive for no losses, especially against other undead/non-living armys.
I have plenty of questions. What hero would work best? I dont like to go Paladin for the role playing reasons. Do you use Vampires in bat or in normal form .. which means: is the life sucking attack good?

I was searching for an "all about undead armys" thread but didnt find one. If theres one, im sorry.

I would be glad about anything worth mentioning on the topic of the living dead.

Greetings,
Dhaan
