I know, I know- waste of a Tomb King, putting him on one of those. But I was wondering what units, if any, he'd be able to join while riding a Sphinx.

From what I can tell, Lords and Heroes can join pretty much any unit, as long as they're the same type? So would a Sphinx King be able to join, for example, a unit of Necropolis Knights? What about another Sphinx? Chariots? (base size is the same)

And when a Tomb King or Tomb Prince is on a Warsphinx, do they count as Characters riding Monsters, or Monstrous Cavalry? I don't think it says so anywhere in the book...

Well if its any compensation you only can usually take a maximum of 3 warsphinx due to the max of three of the same unit type from special, you could potentially go beyond your maximum warsphinx by adding a tomb king(s) on (a) warsphinx AND since he counts as a character riding a monster, so either the rider or the monster could die without the other dying. That's 9 wounds between them. I do not think you can add him to a unit though.

[someone please correct me if I'm wrong about something]

You could potentially do a full-on Sphinx Bash, with a King on Sphinx, a Prince on Sphinx, and 3 basic Warsphinxes, along with 2 Necrosphinx if you wanted to.

You can never join a character riding a monster or a chariot to a unit

Except a tomb King or Tomb Prince riding a chariot. They can join units of chariots as per the "And the Tomb Kings rode to war....." special rule.

I am a Utah man sir, I live across the green, our gang is the jolliest that you have ever seen, Our co-eds are the fairest, ans each one's a shining star, our yell you'l hear it ringing through the mountains near and far.
Who am I sir? a UTAH MAN am I. A UTAH MAN sir, I will be till I die.

KI-YI

Were up to snuff, we never bluff were game for any fuss, no other gang of college men dare meet us in the MUSS. So fill your lungs and sing it out and shout it to the sky, we'll fight for dear old Crimson for a UTAH MAN AM I!!

GO UTES!!!!

Well shoot. That'd be cool, I though.

But what about joining it to other Monsters? That's still a no-no, is it?

A character on a monster may never join a unit and a character may never join a monster unit.
