I put that disclaimer there for a reason. Norse dwarves can go caress their plump helmets, Tolkien's influence over modern fiction destroyed the influence of the myths of old

If we're going to bring in Tolkien's influence into this debate, was there not a vast army of the dead that was called to help save the world in the end?

madrain: Yeah, my idea was more of a general magic suggestion. I'd have to think long and hard on it to come up with something workable. Also, you should play KQ.

Perhaps Necromancy requires certain objects/rituals which just aren't viable to use or carry in the battlefeild? More likely, it's probably difficult, but doable.

I don't have any problem with certain cases of objectively benign or neutral undead, although there's still the question of how dwarfs would be expected to react to such, *as* undead.

ah! like a Black Cauldon (workshop). You have to dump the dead into it, in order for them to come back as shambling monstrosities.

What is it with the onslaught of Disney references here lately?  (Or perhaps rather, Lloyd Alexander, for those preferring books over films)

Well, he stole it from actual myths, but yeah, Lloyd Alexander by a long sight.
Not his best, but good.

internal revolutions and breakable vials (molotov coctails) are required to stage THAT one.
