(Note: My playgroup is casual but with the heat turned up)

In playing AINT NO PARTY like an UNDEAD party.., I have taken a liking to getting out my general and Rooftop Storm, and then casting Sidisi, Undead Vizier, exploiting Sidisi to herself, and getting a bunch of free bodies out. I search out Possessed Skaab, Phyrexian Delver, and Gravespawn Sovereign, return sidisi to my hand, cast sidisi again. I re-use sidisi as much as I can, Including once from the general. The last thing I plop down is Gray Merchant of Asphodel for a big effect.

I'm planning on adding Gravedigger, and Sibsig Muckdraggers as additional creatures to chain together. I'm also going to add Mikaeus, the Unhallowed, Phyrexian Reclamation, Havengul Lich and Panharmonicon to help enable the overall plan. Don't really want to run Ghoulraiser since it's random and my grave is likely to be somewhat full.

I was wondering if there are any creatures (they have to be zombies for it to work, since it relies on Rooftop Storm allowing me to cast for free) that I missed that have an effect like Gravedigger.

If anything else pops into your brain related to the shenanigans I'd love to hear that as well.

Since you need Rooftop Storm I'd suggest a bit more tutoring, if you have them: Demonic Tutor and Rune-Scarred Demon. Perhaps even a golden-oldie like Skull of Orm to retrieve it if it gets destroyed

GobboE: I do run Demonic Tutor and Rune-Scarred Demon. Skull of Orm is very interesting though. I've never heard of that before. I'll have to add it to my maybeboard for when my playgroup starts hating out Rooftop Storm. Thanks for the suggestion.
