a question about undead, if an undead like skeletons and zombies, with no Int score, fights the PC's group, will he be using AoO? and who will he attack, the closest PC, the strongest PC (the one who delt more damage to him)? What i want to ask is whats an undead who dont have an Int Score fights?

Do you mean that Numion is mindless and attacks like zero int undead, or that you agree with Numion?

I usualy have them mindlessly flail away at whoever is closest, unless there's someone who uses positive energy durring combat (turning, healing), which attracts their attention (since I play it that this burns a painful image into their senses, and they will often recklessly charge forward towards someone using positive energy, sort of a like moth to a flame). They take AoOs at any oppertunity, never saving their AoO for later (something a clever opponent will often do), and generaly just claw away with it, though trips and grapples arn't completly outside of the realm of tactical abilities I'd have them use. Disarm or Bull rush would be, though. They act fully independantly.

Mindless undead act as they are commanded by the ones that created them. If their creator is dead, they do the last thing they were told to the best of their ability. Usually, this is guarding an area. So the skeletons and zombies should attack the closest PC. Of course, you could rule that zombies attack the one with the highest intellence. "Braaains!!! Braaaaains!!!" Hehehe.
