Upon further observation, Andriel also saw some weaknesses and easy upgrades of the skeleton shield wall. If they were each given even basic standard weapons, armor, and equipment, they could be considerably more effective. For one, a ranged weapon of sorts that they could fire in the meantime, while they form the shield wall could deal considerable damage. Polearms with reach would be another excellent way to keep the enemy at bay. Weapons that are based upon merely touching the enemy would be useful against more powerful enemies, like alchemist fire and nets and tanglefoot bags. Light armor might be worth it for the additional movement. What a way they had come though, from mere pack animals to already being considered for optimization in combat, all be it for mindless automatons, but still.
