One of the figures used is the Skeletal Archer from the Legendary Encounters set of Reaper Miniatures.

The second figure used is a D&D Miniatures figure from the Angelfire set. Its model name and number are #50 Skeletal Archer

Character Bio: The clacking of bones signals the presence of animated skeletons deep in the crypt. But far before they come into view, deadly shafts rain down from Valkrill's newest minions: the Tomb Skeletons are now backed up by a shambling horde of Tomb Skeleton Archers.

SHAMBLING HORDE
You may move up to 4 Tomb Skeleton Archers you control each turn. If more than 2 of the Tomb Skeleton Archers move this turn, no Tomb Skeleton Archers may attack. If none of the Tomb Skeleton Archers move this turn, you may attack with up to 4 Tomb Skeleton Archers you control.

CLEAR SHOT
When attacking a figure that is not engaged, a Tomb Skeleton Archer rolls 1 additional attack die.

SKELETAL FORM
When rolling defense dice against an attack from a figure with a range number of 4 or more that is not a Cleric or Wizard, a Tomb Skeleton Archer adds 1 die.

Power Ranking & Master Index
Same price, same attack/defense, and same potential 4 attacks at range 7 as Blastatrons. Their figure movement and attack boosts are less impressive, though. Skeletal form cements them as an anti-range ranged squad. B-
