Land type: Swamp
Scribes: [1]

Undead are a fast/medium speed race with a rare trait; the ability to convert on hitting. Additionally, they have immortal OP and incredibly reduced casualties on defence, meaning it is in some ways more forgiving to be hit: you will often be able to get back up. The basic and most effective idea of attacking with Undead is to hit in the proper range as often as possible using elite OP in order to generate free elite DP units for your dominion. Because they are a fast/medium speed race, it is recommended to have started building Guard Towers by early to mid-round.

  • Population bonus
  • Great turtle
  • Can be a very fun race

Cons

  • Very inefficient
  • Very expensive
  • Very unforgiving of mistakes
  • Hard to hit often while keeping enough DP home
  • Requires a lot of time for target searching in order to keep hitting
