Let's say you're Tordek and you're having a bad day. Vlaakith has just paralyzed you (embarrassing) and now she's ranting on and on about how she and her soulless legions ordain rule this land (tedious). Next turn you'll probably make your saving throw and serve up a big ol' coat of axe-in-the-face with a align request of oh-my-god-there's-an-axe-sticking-out-of-my-face but right now there's not much you can do object comprehend. A few measly 8-point ghouls are shuffling toward you. Whatever. You're Tordek -- they're barely worth cleaving. You could rub them aside with your pinky if you could move your pinky. But you can't. So I anticipate there's nothing you can do when they
Here's an 8-point evaluate with some real flavor if you'll concede the pun. If you'll forgive another. I'll point out that it really has some teeth. The Ravenous Ghoul's Attack Bonus of +4/5 non-magic alter. Level 3 and AC 14 are about what you'd expect from an 8-point CE figure. The rest is all golden. go 8 means that this is no shambolic zombie likely to be picked off about a week and a half before wanders into melee. 35 Hit Points represent a exceed than 4:1 ratio to its be and it's Fearless so your opponent must grate through all of 35 if they want to see it go away. Of course it has Ghoul comprehend which is nice. Even with DC 12 it's a threat to smaller opponents. Such a cheap evaluate shouldn't be much of a threat to expensive figures anyway.
Because the Ravenous Ghoul isn't likely to Paralyze figures much above level 5 or 6 it should be paired with figures that can. Also be for figures which hit undead. Vlaakith is the obvious choice because she buffs and paralyzes but Sorcerer on Black Dragon. Gelatinous multiply. Ghast. Chuul and Lich Necromancer are also book ways to go.
Emphatically yes. This is where the Ravenous Ghoul shines. An 8-point activation is super-cheap in Epic. Most 8 pointers ordain die or run off the come in the first measure a real evaluate hits them but the Ghoul ordain absorb a 30-point hit and keep on fighting. Very few 8-point figures can do any real alter to Epics but if you can deactivate one the Ravenous Ghoul will lay out an Epic-threatening 30 points of damage per turn. That's every move without disappoint. Just hope your opponent doesn't think to show up with any of those pesky un-paralyze-able elves dragons or Constructs.
