Gatorman Bokor & Bog Trog Swamp Shamblers
Minion Unit
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.

- Allocate damage from the Bokor to a grunt.
- Stir the Dead - Collect Corpse Tokens from living models who die in CMD. Next control phase put a shambler into play for each corpse token (the unit can have a max of a little more than twice the starting number of shamblers).
- Magic Ability [ _ ] - This model can cast spells. Normally this uses up the model's Combat Action and as such is limited to one spell per activation, but exceptions do exist. (Average skill)

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.
Combos & Synergies
- Lots of infantry - lots of bodies for the mill
- Sacral Vault - the Gator recycles the bodies, the Vault the souls
- Paingiver Task Master - Extra hitting power is always useful - especially with this many troops
- Bog Trog Mist Speaker Veteran Leader really helps shamblers hit average targets.
- Gatorman Witch Doctor Tough on Shamblers is just annoying. 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.
Drawbacks & Downsides
- Shamblers are terrible troops
- The Bokor is a killable lynchpin.
Tricks & Tips
- Jam with them - a shambler is a waste of an attack.
