satisfactorly.
Call of the Hungry dead.
Minion.
Does the -1 intercept carry over to subsequent block attempts by other
minions?
I ruled that it does.
Change of Target
Does the card played for the action get discarded or returned to the
hand?
I think that the card is discarded.
Compel the Spirit.
When compeling a Shambling Horde do you have to burn another ally ect to
return the SH to play?
Bonecraft
At Superior -2 strenth
Can you have negative strength?
We had a minion with this card on them who struck for zero, then played
Lucky blow for 1 damage.
Is this correct?

No. Only that one particular blocking minion gets the -1 intercept. Other
minions who block are not affected by that Call of the Hungry Dead.

Discarded. Without any explicit text to return the card to your hand, it is
discarded.

Yes you do have to remove another ally etc to return the SH to play. When
Compelled, it is still "entering play."
Also, see similar ruling on War Ghoul:
If you have no other allies and no retainers in play when War Ghoul is
recruited, then you burn War Ghoul to satisfy card text. [RTR 19961113]

You can have negative strength. You can't do less than 0 damage, but this is
important for things that give + strength damage. Thus a typical minion with a
Bonecraft (1 - 2 = -1 strength) who strikes with an inferior Undead Strength or
a Lucky Blow still does 0 damage.

You have to remove one in your ash-heap from the game. (Card text.)
"Burn" is to enter the ash-heap.

Correct. (Otherwise it would just say "+1 stealth" and be done with it.)

Hmm is WG considered to be recruited when he's compelled?
LSJ
No. Compel uses the 'move' phrasing.
Hence the additional verbage on the card regarding requirements, disciplines, etc.
However, Compel (superior) *does* put the WG into play. So the "enters play"
effect on the War Ghoul must be handled. If the compelled WG is the only
retainer/ally you have in play, then he is burned.
