ZOMBIES
>
mob,unarmored
Every fallen living beig is a soldier in the Scourge's ranks.
Zombies are the lowest form of these ghastly undead servants
Zombies are often brought to horrifying unlife to serve as frontline troops for the
Lich King’s armies. Their bodies are in a suspended state of decay, their flesh perpetually sloughing away or peeling aside to reveal bone and desiccated organs. Slow moving and clumsy they are only a distraction until the more deadly servants of the Lord of the Dead reap havoc in the battlefield.

SKELETONS
>
unarmored, sword and shields unit
Skeletons are mindless automatons of death, magical constructs made from the bones of the dead. Most skeletons are raised from battlefields and thus are often seen still clothed in rotting garments and rusting armor. A step above zombies, skeletons are able to still fight with the weapons they died clutching.
-UNDEAD WARRIORS
>
heavily armored, swords and shields
Comprising the bulk of the Lich King's army these undead are as dangerous in death as they were in their mortal lives. Once proud defenders of their homelands, these nercomantic minions clad in heavy armor and with rotting flesh all over their bodies have no purpose but to undo all life in Azeroth.
-EXECUTIONERS
>
heavily armored, 2 handed axes, armor piercing
Clad in thick plate and wielding greataxes these warriors serve as the shock troops of the Scourge foot soldiers. Their ability to cleave through their mortal enemies and lack of sense make them an extremely dangerous force everyone in their path.
-GHOULS
>unarmored, monster unit
These lumbering, rotting corpses were once innocent townsfolk who have made the final transition into true undeath. Ghouls have great stamina and revel in combat with living beings. Unlike the warrirors, they possess no armor but their claws, teeth and the fear of their sight more than makes up for it.
-WIGHTS
Resembling zombies, these creatures are even more horridly deformed and appear in larger sizes than regular undead foot troops. Their size and strength makes them excellent shock troops against enemy positions.
-PLAGUE ERUPTOR
Plague eruptors are the latest experiment of the
Lich King, designed to spread horror and chaos across the world of the living. These walking corpses have quickly earned a reputation as the most destructive of the
Scourge army: hyper-violent, incredibly strong, and deceptively fast. The most terrifying weapons in the eruptors' arsenal are the myriad pulsing nodules that dominate their rotting skin. It is from these nodules that the undead plague festers and bursts, insuring that wherever the eruptors go, they quickly spread the Lich King's apocalyptic contagion.

ABOMINATIONS
Abominations are twisted, mutilated
undead creatures comprised of multiple dead limbs and body parts from many different corpses. They are enormous warriors, scarred by loose stitchings and putrid, open sores. They love to carve flesh and tear their enemies apart. The slow-moving and dull-witted abominations constantly drip blood and smell like disease-ridden slaughterhouses. They carry large cleavers into combat and wield various sickle-bladed hooks on their disproportionate limbs.
-BONE GOLEM
Bone golems are deadly
undead constructs made entirely of bones and fueled by ichor of undeath. They are one of the deadlier types of undead employed by the
Scourge.
Despite their rarity their ability to cleave through the heaviest of armors makes them valuable assets in the Scourge's arsenal.
-WARLORD'S GUARD
>heavy armored unit, 2 handed greataxes/ axe and shield (?)
The ancient race of the Vrykul after their thousand year slumber awakened in Northrend.
Believing the Lich King to be a god of death, they have pledged their full loyalty to him.
Now the Vrykul Warlords and their elite bodyguards clad in thier heaviest armor march into battle to crush the Lich King's enemies and earn a place alongside him.
-DEATH KNIGHTS
> heavy armor, 2 handed swords and axes
Out of all the creatures and soldiers the Scourge posseses, the Death Knights are unquestionably its greatest assets. Clad in heavy armor, wielding rune weapons and ultilising necromantic magic they are the Sourge's answer to the Humans' Paladins and its greatest warriors.these dark champions possess unholy strength, however, they do not possess free will and their minds are inexorably entwined with and dominated by the Lich King's vast consciousness. Despite the heavy costs of free will, some powerful mortals are intrigued by the promise of immortality and pledge their souls freely into the Lich King's service to achieve it. As the Lich King's greatest champions they are found on the frontlines of battlefields leading their troops and instilling fear unto the hearts of all who gaze upon their unholy sight.

>unarmored ranged unit.Still with the knowledge to handle weapons like they used to in their mortal lives, these undead soldiers have taken up the bow to serve as the skirmishers of the vast Scourge army.

MOUNTED DEATH KNIGHTS
CRYPT FIENDS
The cunning crypt fiends were once the lords of the ancient spider kingdom of Azjol-Nerub that spanned the entirety of Northrend in ancient times. However, the crypt fiends' power base was destroyed by the Lich King, Ner'zhul, when he and his undead Scourge took control of the frozen continent. The Nerubians that had fallen in the war were resurrected as slaves for the Lich King's army. These reanimated insectoids became known as the crypt fiends because they still wear the tattered remains of the linens in which their corpses were mummified
CRYPT LORD
These ancient, evil behemoths were once the mighty kings of the subterranean spider kingdom of Azjol-Nerub. Though the nerubians fell before the wrath of the Lich King during the fabled War of the Spider, the insidious crypt lords were swayed over to the Lich King's ranks and granted considerable power and the immortality of undeath. Now the giant, thundering beasts serve as the Lich King's mightiest warriors and the guardians of the Scourge's holdings in Northrend.
MAGIC
NECROMANCER
Though they retained their Humanity after making a pact with death, Necromancers became the most terrifying agents of the Scourge. These dark, insidious men were once thought to be aspiring geniuses by the Magocracy of Dalaran. However, their insatiable lust to delve into the secrets of the dark arts drove them to forsake their very souls. Ner'zhul, the Lich King, granted these malevolent sorcerers true power over the dead in exchange for their loyalty and obedience. The shadowy Necromancers have the power to command various types of Undead and even spread the foul undead plague as well.
SKELETAL MAGES
Of all the minions raised by necromances, there are those that in life were talented enough to master the arcane arts. These gifted undead now serve the Lich King as the spellcasters of his army using potent magic to rush thenemies of the Scourge.
BANSHEES
Banshees created by the Scourge were once beautiful female high elves who fell before the power of the Scourge. Their restless spirits were left to wander the world in silent, tortured lamentation. Then, theLich King gathered them together and gave them terrible voices so that the living would finally hear their bitter anguish. Thus, the banshees have pledged themselves to Ner'zhul's cause and now serve as valuable agents of the Scourge
LICH
Liches are powerful undead sorcerers who possess tremendous magical powers. Bound to the iron will of the Lich King, they mainly wield frost magic and necromantic spells.[1] Typically appearing as large, floating, skeletal figures wrapped in long robes, they are often found in high-ranking positions within the Scourge.
DARKFALLEN
The Darkfallen is a race of vampiric undead blood elves, under the command of the Blood-Queen Lana'thel. They are a recent addition to the Scourge army, introduced after Arthas' second visit to Northrend. In the aftermath of the failed attack on the Frozen Throne by Illidan, the Lich King raised his fallen assaulters into powerful minions of his will. These elves, highly gifted in magic, formed the Darkfallen an elite sect of elven spellcasters that wreack havoc in the battlefield.
ARTILLERY
CATAPULT
MEAT WAGON
One of the strangest and most dire tools utilized by the Scourge is the dreaded meat wagon. This rickety contraption is used to collect and store recently slain corpses from the field of battle so that it can fling the diseased corpses at enemy units with its crude catapult device.
An invaluable support vehicle for the Scourge, the meat wagon strikes fear and woe into the hearts of even the most resolute defenders
BALLISTA
