Yeah, the lack of forced vegetable-eating in this edition is a problem I'd say.

It seems pretty clearly trying to ape ww2-era tanks. I'm getting a sherman vibe from it, but can't say exactly why (other than perhaps the color). Spare tank treads were used as extra armor on tanks, and so were sandbags and other "stuff we can strap onto a tank" materials. It's not great armor, but the difference between "completely penetrated front armor" and "mostly destroyed front armor" can keep you alive.

I know. I play historical too. I just think it's a pretty weak sauce conversion. If there WERE some sand bags strapped on instead of all the treds I would have liked it better.

Now someone make a mini where the mage is replaced by Octodad in a mage outfit.

Include broken vases and strewn paperwork on the base.

I agree that the ability of undead musicians to play instruments requiring compression/expansion without muscles makes far more sense than the ability to play brass and woodwinds without lips/lungs.

I mean, the muscle issue is a problem with the "Animate Skeleton" idea more generally.

Maybe undead musicians should be zombies/ghouls?

I mean, they don't have ears either, but they could "hear" through bone conduction, so that's another mark in favor of a percussion instrument anyway.

But then is the skeleton really a musician, or is the actual musician the necromancer?

The Necromancer is more the manager giving the musician the drugs to keep going.
