Bunny ear says flop

Rat Ogre pitfighting would be a nice one... although you should try to test the cost of those things. But would those then be individually?
:lol:

a rat beast is a single model never in a unit with more as it would attack the other one...

The rat mutant beast is a survivor of the most deviant experiments the mutators did on it. But as so many of those experiments it was a failure. His destiny was to die at the bottom of Hell Pit where all the failures are bannished to. There was a daily fight to survive, creating even more mutations because it was obliged to live on the weaker warpstone mutated failures...

After a few years of this hell the mutation become more stable. The mutators go in once in a while to collect the most terrifyng beasts to use them on the battlefield.

I could in some sense agree that Moulder is the weekest clan. As many here have mentioned they do not have a rare choice and i think that is realy bad. I would like to see rathounds/ratcentaurs or/and a mole rat/warp beast thingy.

Also i think Rat Ogres are abit snuffed from how they where before. Killing off the packmasters is realy easy with shooting.

But on the other hand Clan Moulder can field a very large swarm army. Just look at my 250 US 1500 pt army over at warpstone

The Harbringer of Mutation is a very nice magician i think. He is only lvl 1 but can cast Vermintide. With a diff of 7 it is doable with 2 dice. In adition he is a nice scroll caddy with whip and just staying in a giant rat unit to give beastmaster and LD.

Just my 2 warptokens worth.

today i played against Vampire counts with a 1500 army Moulder themed...

i had 2 packs of 2 rat ogres and 2 units of 4 packs of giant rats...

I must say my ratogres saved the battle. killing all 3 units of wolfs and a unit of zombies with a combines charge of clanrats....

I was amased that they outlived the battle but this time they really were worth their points.

My opponent, who said he was the champion of Poland (yeah sure), played a good match but he just putted to much points in a black knights unit of 14 big with a wight on horse in it...

The table was against me because there was too uch scenery and the table was too small for my army : LOL...

mt giant rats didn't do anything but hold up the knights and getting killed by a 6 strong spirit host...

I really enjoyed the game even more because this was one of the best battles for my rat ogres..

Hoorah!

The fluff of Throt says his working on a very big rat ogre, some kind of Rat Giant. That looks like a good Rare choice to me!

First of all congrats on the win. And on thw hole champion of poland thing... dont jump to conclusions here, it may just be that he is "champion" in 2000 point battles, i had a similiar scenario a couple weeks ago when i beat a "champion" and the only reason why is because he was not used to small battles.
That pesky warmachine keeping you down, or is that combat monster destroying your army? NEVER FEAR... ESHIN IS HERE

If I remember correctly in Throts fluff he is going in to Lustria to find out some big lizard to mutate together in to something...big. Don't have a clue about what tough. I don't think the Kroxigors will be likely candidates since the we allready have the RatOgres. That will leave us with either a humongous rat/stegadon or perhaps a terrifiyng rat/carnivore.
A rare choice is wanted tough. I would put my money on a warpspawn-rat thingie rather than fast cavalry or antyhing like that, since giant rats already are fast.

uh, i hate to tell you moulder-beasts this, but.....

throt is not the only special charcter model thing.....

a Deathmaster snikch model is coming soon, he's like an uber-assassin with four attacks, comes with bands o power and warpstone stars, has a horriffic ward save (only rat to actually train with the nippon/cathay assassins so he is THE rat-assassin.

so once again, moulder's one big advantage is snatched from under it's very paws

Nah. Throt is still a lot cooler. The ninja style of skaven is just silly.
No give me RATS! Real, evil, mutated rats in massing numbers... That will crush any flying dragon or crouching armadillo.

yeah, i know, i'm very used to play 1500 point games, because almost all the tournaments i played are like that. So when i experiment with armylist i always make a 1500 points battle...

But the table was just too small for the game... even for a 'small' battle like that (i still had 180 models in my army...)

then again if he brags like that it's fun to win a game from him to put him on his place :D
