I just realized this. 30 clan rats (FC), a cheiftain with the Gouger, and a Hidden assassin with Weeping Blades (426 points) can beat 16 Chosen with shields (FC) (436 points.)

It scares me a lot. Assassin challenges...racks up over kill...
Chosen kill up to four (Lets say they kill four!), Chieftain strikes back...kills one maybe...

Chosen combat res: +4 kills.
Skaven: +1 Outnumber, +5 Overkill, +1 Kill basic.
Skaven win. Probally send the chosen (Ld 6 now), fleeing. Said chosen are probally cut down.
So everyone, next time you fight a chaos player who uses Chosen Knights (You get ranks then!), or Chosen Warriors (See above), remember this: You CAN beat the crap out of them!

3 attacks, hitting on 3s and wounding on threes. Chance makes him fail one, maybe two. You multiply each wound into D3 wounds. Thats 3-9 over kill, just five is the highest, so...yeah.

What if they refuse the challenge, there goes the overkill bonus...wait, does Chaos have to accept challenges?

They don't know he has weeping blades.
If you get lucky, he won't know he has 3 attacks at WS6...
And if they do refuse...
*Realizes that would be 8 attacks.*

You're screwed.

Weeping blades won't work like that in a challenge. Multiple woud hits are calculated differently to prevent just such a thing.Won't Chosen (on foot) have like a 2+ armor save? Don't they have 2 attacks each? I think Knights are ST5. Khorne has frenzy too.
It's possible to win like yo say,but hardly easy. Have a fully ranked unit and flank them to take away the Chosen's ranks.
If that unit of Chosen Knights hits the Clanrats flank.......10+ ST5 attacks....

How would Weeping Blades not work like that in a challenge?
Also, I meant if they charged you're front. If 3 chosen knights charged your flank, you're dead. Heck, if any amount of Chaos Troops numbering over 5 US charged the flank, you are dead. Marauder troops are the exception.

Ok, my mistake. I just saw the part of 3-9 overkill,not the +5 maximum. Sorry.

You're counting on a Hero vs. Champion challenge. Big Whoop! I think anybody(almost) can have a Hero beat a Champ.
But won't Chosen have 2+ save? So he'll still get 4+ vs. Weeping blade,half your wounding hits won't get thru.

Thats where luck comes in. If you're known for failing important combats, DO NOT TRY THIS IDEA!
