I've wanted to make a similar bg for a while now, it sounds like a lot of fun, and I know some people, like Gainer, have played the deck to the top. The Lich King > Sacrifice combo is pretty damn powerful. It's too bad there isn't another skeleton champ in UD.
I think you may want to swap a Soul Siren for a Necromancer, and possibly the Graveyard for a second Mobilization, or Hungry Dead. I'd put inspire and Summon Skele 1 on the Tomb Lords. It looks like a fun build, and I'm completely jealous if you already have 2x Demon Lich's.

Hmm... as much as I would love to think that the Demon Lich serves a purpose, she doesn't.
=(
This BG is better off just UD/FW without the skelly sub theme.

I'm trying something like this but the demon lich takes the necro's kills.

I'm running this deck without the Necro on purpose. The two demon lich's take all the kills they can to get a little Deep Elf Skeleton army going. That army is boosted by the Tomb Lords. The little suckers have multiattack! It's great fun when you get it going. The Tomb Lords have summon skele on them. They are the main skele generation with just additional from the graveyard. Tomb of Hate for shrine heal. Tomb Lords have max boost and max summon. They are what the build revolves around. Inspire the Lich Kings or Demon Lich's and you have yourself a massacre! The two Soul Sirens are purely in this deck for Relocate Foe and Warcry. With this combination I can pull in an enemy and boost ap of all skele's around me. Very handy. I run 2x Sheoul Demon's in this build because they are very synergenic with the Demon Lich's Ablaze ability. Besides, I love my Sheouls! They are true beasts with Horrific Aura and Essence Capture.
PS. LoL Troost0, I am THE wet dream of Octopi. I am a truly addicted person. I cannot help myself. I have this overwhelming need to collect all of these runes. I currently own 2x of every playable rune including exotics. The only runes I'm missing for all 8 factions are Harby's and select LE's. I'm working on filling in those LE's & harbys......taking me a while. ;)
Last I checked I've probably spent somewhere in the neighborhood of $1500-$2000. I know, I'm crazy.

It looks abit like what im playing
my BG looks like this
2 LK
2 Zombie Behemot
Tomb Lord
Soul Siren
Cleric of Unrest
2 Mobilization
Dark Rising
2 Demon Lich
2 Sheol Demon
Nefari Messenger
Retribution
2 Sacrifice
Mindslicer Obelisk
Shatter
Works really nice very fun to drop the rising on a shrine with the boost 3 tomb lord around
the bg would probly be better with necros instead of Demon Lich and swapping out the behemots for something like deer elf monks but its very fun to play the way it is now.

I'd lose the graveyard, I think you'll fin it looks better on paper than it actually is, but that just my opinion, I think you'd get better use out of an essence drain, weaken or something like that, you might also look at squeezing in a deep elf fanatic or two some how.

Your probably right LucyBanana, but then people would really give me a hard time. ;)
I mean geez, if I really wanted to I could put together the most rediculous deck ever.
2x of everything purple. LoL
I'm trying to stay away from adding any more exotics than I have to. ;) Besides, the Deep Elf Fanatic is going through a sad time right now. He's just not that playable at the moment. Hopefully that will change...

I was thinking that a Deep Elf Fanatic would work nicely with a Demon Lich since his power would increase with every Deep Elf Skeleton that spawns. But I don't know how many killing blows you'd be able to get off with your Lich's.

Deep Elf Fanatics are ridiculously weak outside of FF. I believe it's damage is at 8-9 with 10/10 bonus.
Hardly worth playing even if you somehow made a bunch of deep elf skeletons considering you could use a monk or a dragon etc with higher damage and better survivability.
