Here's my version. I was thinking along very similar lines to you, obviously. I kept the points at 60 but dropped it to 3 wounds (same points/wound as the zombies themselves). It's quite close to your option B, although it's not quite full bonding. I wanted to avoid chain bonding via Ornak, and I also wanted to make it hard to consistently get 4 attacks in a turn.

Yeah, it definitely needs testing. The way I have it worded, there's room on the card for a third power of some sort if it's needed. There's tons and tons of good options - some sort of zombie slam special attack, fear aura, adjacency-only fear aura, bonus to adjacent zombies... I could keep going.
Are you ready for a screeching U-Turn?

After playtesting my version, I found that the zombie shriek, as I worded it, gives very little value once the hulks are all in position. You really want your turns on the zombies themselves, so once the Hulks are engaged you don't want OMs on them any more. That was sort of the point, because I think a consistent 4 attacks per turn would be too powerful for the zombies, but the way I wrote it it's too easy to just engage the hulks and ignore them. I didn't want consistent 4 attacks/turn, but I didn't want the hulks to get completely shut down, either.

So... given the way my pseudo-bonding power draws opposing figures into adjacency, I think the zombie hulk does need to have some passive power to hurt adjacent figures. So... I'm going to run a test with the powers exactly as I had them on my version, plus paralyzing fear that only works on figures engaged to the hulks. I think this could work pretty well.
Awesome. Glad you got to play test it. I think you've really given this custom the extra thought and TLC it's needed to go from good to awesome. Let me know how the new power works out. I wish there was a way to get this one in front of the designers and make it an actual figure.

Re: Good Pig's D&D Customs

You have some pretty cool units here. I'll have to try out your Angha card.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

Thanks. I'll probably rework the attack a bit so it isn't exactly the same as Nilfheim's but I think it's a good foundation for now. Points might be a bit high, but the Revive thing should be worth quite a few points.

Some of them will get some more tweaking once I get a chance to playtest them.

Kronos and Molum, the -Nak brothers and the GAE. I do think that Molum's absorb earth special, depending on the map, is very powerful or not very powerful at all. I might consider replacing it with an extra defense die.

Yeah, this is one ability where theme was given more consideration than actual play mechanics. I thought rock or sand should be available on most maps, but you'd never want to take that chance in a tournament setting. I'd love to keep some sort of bonus, maybe it would be +1 defense instead of a heal ability. Then I could tweak the rest of his stats accordingly.

Molum probably needs to be tested more than any other figure.
