Ghouls are Black Goat units that are delightfully annoying.
Although they are poor combatants, they can be given the ability to go to any battle location after the fight is over and force a "pain" result (retreat) on each side in the battle - one pain per ghoul.
You can do this even if you weren't involved in the combat.
This is great for letting others fight and then clearly out the territory for yourself, or forcing opponents into unfavorable or weakened positions, or just to aggravate everyone at the table.
To be honest, although I love playing with these in the game, I wasn't that excited about painting them and I think it shows.
Cthulhu Wars is one of my favorite games to play. It is loads of fun and with enough variety to last a lifetime of playing. The miniatures excited me when I first got them, but as I paint more of them I am disappointed in the material of the models (pvc), which becomes tacky when painting (pvc is actually a terrible and unhealthy material as it is) and the casting isn't as crisp as they could be. This has dulled my enthusiasm for them somewhat.
