Now that I think about it, this might be a good way to make use of that "Heroic Obesity" trait that seems to come up from time to time.

Haven't tested it thought, but it's probable that the reanimated undead fatso doesn't get the crippling +3 encumberance, just the amazing str and hp bonus.

I can confirm that it does work, and you get the normal undead ability to ignore melee encumberance, including the obesity addition.

I once had the Hannibal merc as a rebirthed Giant Mummy with Heroic Obesity + GoH = some 200+ Hitpoints (SP of course.) Other than the hideously low action points, he was a nice little SC. Not very flexible, though, due to inability to switch out gear...

In one EA MP game as Ctis I RoRed a H4 prophet with Heroic Obesity after 6 turns, and reprophetised him. Not only was he a beast at reanimating, but with mummy stats and some 250+ health in full friendly dominion he was quite capable of turning other thingies to dust
