Going by the fluff ( lifted from their site link ): Ghouls impale themselves with vicious spikes and deadly barbs, working themselves up into such a blood frenzy that they can shrug off most fatal wounds. Do you leave the spikes on or chop them off? Any pictures you care to share? Thanks in advance

I plan to cut them off. I have not yet. |

I was just putting some together this past week. I cut them off. |

I picked up a box to be my "ragers" for zombie games. Quickly snipped all the spikes. Cheers, Xin |

I'll leave them in. I'm not using them for that fluff, but mixing them with a pack of mantic zombies for general use as zombies/reavers/mutants/etc… |

Are they useful for none fantasy gaming? post apoc perhaps. |

They don't really look like undead ghouls. With the right paintjobs they could easily be used as wasteland mutants, space reavers, etc. |

Saw them for the first time last week (freebie sprue with a magazine) They don't fit my image of ghouls, more like zombies IMHO. I'd be cutting the spikes off. Daft idea. |

They are great in combo with the Z's as genre free undead. Oh, and I cut the spikes off. |
