Hey Folks,
The reanimates seem to have a really high combat roll for their point value. Am I correct that a unit of 3 reanimates roll 4 dice for combat? The card seems clear but this is a significant attack for such a cheap unit. The last game I played I got to roll 4 dice with essentially the entire army which (Knights, Banshee, Dragon, Reanimates) was just too much for my opponent.

I think they work out fine. Yes, they have a strong attack if they strike first... but chip away at them with ranged attacks, or make certain your melee gets to them first and you're looking at a much weaker unit. Compared to the special abilities Citadel Guards and Blood Harvesters have I think Reanimates are kind of lacking on their own. Their real strength is how they, as minions, interact with Graveyards, Necromancers and Lore cards. Plus, yeah, the fact that they have a 4 die attack when they're fresh.
