Gatorman Bokor & Bog Trog Swamp Shamblers

Fearsome necromancers, gatorman bokors wield the very powers of life and death. Stalking among the war parties of the gatormen, bokors command the walking slave-corpses of bog trogs, using the cadavers in death with the same ruthlessness that first cost them their lives. Should any doubt the terrible power of the gatormen, they need only look upon the bokors and their undead minions.

Thoughts on Gatorman Bokor & Bog Trog Swamp Shamblers

Gatorman Bokor & Bog Trog Swamp Shamblers in a nutshell

It's a zombie horde! Shamblers aren't great - but they are good enough to mess up the enemy and jam up charge lanes. If you're using a lot of living infantry, you may as well chuck these guys in to get some extra mileage out of those bodies.

Combos & Synergies

• Sacral Vault - the Gator recycles the bodies, the Vault the souls. The vault also brings telemetry for more accurate Hand of Glories.
• Paingiver Task Master - Extra hitting power is always useful - especially with this many troops. And tough shamblers are annoying.
• Bog Trog Mist Speaker Veteran Leader really helps shamblers hit average targets.
• Gatorman Witch Doctor Extra speed on Shamblers is useful. And they are great cheap targets for sacrificial strikes. However be aware that the Witch Doctor zombifying other units will deny you corpse tokens for Shamblers.

• The Blindwater Congregation theme effectively makes them cheaper.
• The Boil Master and Spirit Cauldron can give the Bokor corpses.

• Non-Minion combos
  • Legion like them to feed their Spawning Vessels.
  • Wurmwood, Tree of Fate & Cassius the Oathkeeper - Similar to the Sacral Vault; you're already farming soul tokens, why not double up and farm corpse tokens too?

Drawbacks & Downsides

• Shamblers are terrible troops
• The Bokor is a killable lynchpin.

Tricks & Tips

• You're better to run and jam with them, than you are to burn your clock time making attacks with them.
• The Bokur cannot cast the Hand of Glory spell and buy melee attacks in the same activation. It's a special attack not tied to a weapon, and it doesn't say a weapon can be used afterwards (in comparison to, say, Combustion).
