Ghoul/1.03

Ghouls are basic infantry.

=Factions=

Plaguelords
Although they've been hit with a few nerfs in their life time, they are still much better infantry than Slimes. They can be upgraded to be faster and have better combat which makes them capable of tackling late game infantry to some passable standard, especially with their crushing type damage that can render an enemy unit all but useless upon landing a critical hit. Those aforementioned combat researches certainly play towards this. Oddly enough, they don't actually cause Disease despite the in-game help box saying they do.
