Boom baby!
Found these guys in catching up on postings that are of interest to me.  They seem pretty useful in an undead’ish kind of way. The OP is ZakArnston and here’s the thread discussing them.

The image is from Left Four Dead and is one of the boss mobs in that upcoming game.

I keep thinking I should somehow create a monster database on here somewhere but I’m not honestly all that fluent in PHP especially in making database calls to a MySQL db to do it so I’m not sure if that’s something I want to put the time in to do.  But it would sure be cool if someone made an online site where you could search for monsters by type, powers, ratings etc and get a pdf of the selected critters to print out and have in front of you.  Yes sir, that would be pretty damn cool.
