I play Slayers, so maybe I can help.

It's pretty easy to beat Slayers with Skaven. Go for heavy shooting. Jezzails, wap-lightning cannons, etc. If you get any magic, make sure you go heavy. The trick is to simply deny combat as long as possible and shoot as much as you can. A Slayer player can count on the average person, even one with some moderate shooting, to move up on the board and meet him in combat. Don't do that. Deploy far back and let him come to you. If you have good, solid shooting, you'll probably be able to whittle him down enough so that when he hits your lines he won't have enough time to make back the points he lost. Good luck.

maybe he plays skaven and slayers ;)

But its true, because slayers don't have an armour save, your ratlgun guns, warpfires, jezzials and cannon should finish them easy.

Im not sure weather its wise to waste WLC fire on them. Maybe rattling gun though. What about combat? Stormvermin/clanrats with higher initiative should be able to kill most of the front rank and hopefully win the combat... Flank charges would also be worthwhile...

WLC should be used to take down Doomseekers (since they aren't affected by targetting restrictions). And those things are nasty.

WARP FIRE THROWERS! I just realised how effective theyd be against slayers! Kill them on 3+ is awesome and incredibly effective!

I took a unit of 16 slayers out in 2 turns with a unit of 20 plague monks (5 font) including a plague priest. And shot my warpfire thrower into the combat. (So Skavenish!!!) Only lost 4 monks total!!!!

Sure-sure, toasty slayers may taste nice, but after cooking em with a WFT??? Wouldnt that be a bit poisonous?
