So I will soon be getting create undead at caster level 8 granting me ghouls is there a template I missed somewhere all I can find are humans wolves and dire wolves.
What other undead on the list are useful I try to keep around as few minions as I can so I don't take an hour every round with all the actions so I prefer to have bigger heavy hitters rather then swarms of smaller mooks with little to no chance of hitting but a weakling with a cool trick might be useful.
I also have animate dead Most of my minions are relentless cursed zombies, burning skeletons or bloody skeletons, did I miss any good combos of lessor undead I could try out.
I don't have anything to up the number of HD I can control yet so 8HD is the max but I have the control undead feat twice, once from Undead lord once from necromancy spec wiz so I can keep 2 8's or up to 16HD across multiple.
And I know having 2 control undead is odd but my GM is cool with it as long as I don't take every mook I have controlled with me all the time.
Thanks in advance
