I am at a loss as to how this character would be made. Can a 1 HD zombie gain character levels? How do you determine: BAB - Zombies get 1/2 HD BAB, do I add the class BAB to that? HP - Zombies get d12's, do I add the class hp to that or just keep giving d12's? feats - Zombies lose all feats and gain toughness, do they gain feats from taking levels in fighter? I'm unsure how to make this all work. In addition, there might be an issue with the warhulk abilities because great swing requires a full round action. I don't think a zombie can make a full round action because they can only do partial actions, so does that mean the zombie cannot use this ability? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

If you were a dm that likes to make players happy then you would allow it without either (considering that warhulk is the most unintellegent you could get) but if you were a smart dm you would just dissallow it in the first place. very broken class if memory serves.
