Ahem. Firstly, it's R'lyeh. For some bizarre reason, everyone spells it wrong. I don't get it. It's really starting to bug me, like that "turrent" thing that was going around a few years back. I declared it a bannable offense on my site.
And yeah, I agree: The Ghost King is THE R'lyeh pretender of choice. He's stealthy, he's ethereal, he has zero encumberance....well, he lacks the flight and immortality options of the VQ, but he's also only a 90-point chassis. On the other hand, his paths are cheaper, which is handy for a nation that lacks as many loose points as Ermor. Not quite as potent in early expansion as the Vampire Queen, but you make up for it with the very handy Star Children assassins.
