10 fire+water blessed hydras (can only be blessed playing middle age pythium) under the influence of 'gift of flight'. Ah watch the undead dissolve under 180 blazing poison bites upon their rearmost troops and commanders, YES there will be blood.
I didn't think longdead and souless had blood. I also beleive it is late age pythium that gets sacred hydras. As for the "exploit", I agree. You get a lot more effective undead combatents out of a black servent prophet. I've never heard of that being refered to as an exploit or as unthematic.
