This massive infantry reinforcement box provides the primary Rank-and-File backbone for Nehekharan armies. The kit is incredibly modular, utilizing classic highly-customizable sprues repacked with modern base sizes. The kit builds 36 Skeleton Warriors. It contains 465 plastic components and 36 updated Citadel 25mm Square Bases (upped from the historical 20mm standard). 
Every single miniature can be alternatively assembled as either a frontline Skeleton Warrior (for melee) or a Skeleton Archer equipped with a warbow and rear-mounted quiver. 
If built for melee, the models can be dynamically armed with either thrusting spears or one-handed weapons (scimitars, axes, and swords), and each carries a tall Nehekharan shield.
The sprues include enough optional parts to build multiple command sections. You can assemble Champions (Master of Warriors), Musicians blowing horns, and Standard Bearers featuring a variety of distinct icon tops.
In Warhammer: The Old World, Skeleton Warriors serve as cheap, expendable tar-pits designed to hold the line while your heavy constructs or chariots position for flank charges. Upgrading the unit with thrusting spears costs +1 point per model. Community consensus strongly recommends paying this upgrade cost for melee blocks. Because spears allow models to fight from an extra rear rank, it drastically maximizes the number of attacks an undead horde can output to make up for their low Weapon Skill.
Skeletons can buy Light Armour for +1 point per model. However, high-level tactical guides generally advise skipping armor upgrades on core skeleton warriors; their low survival rate means points are better spent buying more bodies to absorb casual damage before relying on a Liche Priest's reanimation magic.
