empire pikemen
Gnoblar Suicide Teams with barrels full of powder - It will be fun trying to destroy them before they reach to your line
Maybe it's hard for MTWII engine but someone could set stats as for canon unit with min range and high rate of fire (explosions will kill both gnoblars and enemy unit) and not going to meele combat.

What about more types of skeleton armies ? I don't know any link to source but for example in new book about Gotrek and Felix there are beastmens skeletons.
The stories are many such references. Though I remember the great skeletal Orc Chieftain ... Suppose, however, that Sylvania is based on the remains of the imperial soldiers.
But how can someone do undead dwarves, which have short legs ...
As someone recently complained to von Carstein bodyguards ...
Such an idea for a cavalry unit - is it unique or personal guard, depending on one's vision.
In ArmyBook "Vampire Counts" ed.7.
There is mention of this Champions Black Knight - Hell Knight (do not know if the shield bears the number 666).
Of course, this figure in itself does not exist, because GW did not perform. But it reminded me a fansite processing.

Empire at War, p.30.
As for the crossbowmen - a little wrong on some issues. I found one picture, in a very old manual for this picture.
Has ticked them crossbowmen skeletal ... relic of the past.
it is said that during SoC an Orc army invaded Sylvania and were killed. Then Manfred made an army with their corpses, so why not add orc skeletons?
PS the artillery in the background is formed by undead ballistas?
actually that would be cool, but the engine make impossible to have different skeletons models in one unit
Ostland Black Guard
The heroic unit from Hel Fenn.
"Empire at War"
Pikemen State troop are already in the CoW. Ie. These are semi-pikemen, called in the WFB "spearmen". In my opinion they should be able to simply change the "shields wall, " the ability to "phalanx". As in the case Kislev's spearman.empire pikemen state troops that would be awesome!
This would be consistent with the lore in some degree.
I read about them (Ostland Black Guard) in the Vampire-Novels of GW. If I remember right, there was written they have a helmet which don't show the face. Just for an idea to make them more different from normal Greatswords.

Sorry for my bad english
I mean, that those "normal spearmen" is really pikemen. Only peaks that are shorter compared to tileańskich. These are half-pike (do not know how to write it in English). Anyway, note the way in which they hold. So they could fight in formation, "Phalanx, " as spearmen from Kislev.
In Tilea and Estalia likely you are using the longer peak.
I hope so. So to Hell Knights are yet arrived, but Ostland Black Guard rules.I bet, iselendil catch the bait
I asked myself the trouble and searched. In the last part of the trilogy, I found the appearance of such details.
In the calm before the battle, a priest of Morr walked within the ruins before the bowed heads of
the Black Guard, bestowing upon them the blessings of the god of death and dreams. Four thousand
of the fearsome black armoured warriors hid within the old fort, another thousand at the farm. Each
warrior carried with him a pouch containing two silver pieces. The coins were an offering to pay
their way into the afterlife should they fall on the field of battle.
Although he was not one of them, and did not wear the lacquered black plate and hauberk of a
true Black Guard, Vorster took the blessing gratefully.
Well ... my English is not the strongest, but I found no information on their helmets. I also know from another source that the name of his regiment had written on armor ... but I am not able to verify.
So it is best to use the drawings and information from texts.
I just have it in german. If you want me to do it, I can try a translation, but you know my english is not so good. May be someone has the novel (Retribution) in english?
Edit: Oh, our vampirelord has already made it .
By the way, it seems that I was wrong with the helmets... I couldn't find it too, when I was looking for it.
