 * Infiltrator Skeletons revolve around snaring dwarves and catching them off-guard, as well as constructing vineways to get to higher locations or impede dwarf movement.
 * Infiltrator skeletons get most of their killing value from catching dwarves behind shrine protection. These dwarves are typically weak from battle, repairing their armor, or simply not paying attention enough to fight off a Skeleton who can slow their attempts to melee them down and backpedal to keep distance.
-* Infiltrator Skeletons can also break lights in the keep and setup vineways to quickly bypass chokepoints on certain maps, making them an extremely valueable as a support monster.

 * It can be especially beneficial to have 1 or 2 dwarves constantly watching for Infiltrator Skeletons behind the front lines, especially as when they are left alone they can completely destroy all the lights before dwarves are able to fight there. Vines should also be destroyed on sight as they provide high positional value. Dwarven Runeblades destroy vines fairly quickly.
 * Watching positioning when dealing with Impact Skeletons is a must, as they can easily knock dwarves off of high cliffs to their death.
-* Shooting Skeletons while rampaging can also quickly deal with them inside, ontop of shrine boxes, or with extra health; since shots while rampaging will instantly kill them as long as the rampage is still active when the shot lands.
