So as i was perusing the TK book, and the BRB i came across this tactic.

so you get your horde of skeletons with a Tomb Prince. Everyone know the first thing they want to do is kill the prince. So you issue a challenge with your uber killer character of badness

now here is the interesting bit, the tomb prince refuses the challenge and goes to the back of the unit. the skeletons still get the WS bonus. under refusing challenges it specifically says you cant use his leadership but i didnt see anything about losing special rules.

as the rule for the TP is as long as they are with the unit the skeletons get the WS bonus, they are not required to be in the front rank.

That is correct. Same with any other rules that a character grants to a unit such as Stubborn

Yep, entirely correct.

Yuppers ps you are better of with a king or a prince in your tomb guard unit with halberds those guys are @$$e$ like really they dont die and are ws 5 or 6 with str 5 getting guys back every turn.
