Is there any monster/hero/magic weapon combo available to the Warhammer universe that allows for 5 strength 7 attacks? And if so, about how many points would it come out to be?

The closest I can remember is the Lord of Change (5 strenght 6 attacks 665 pts)
Or the Bloodthirster (7 strenght 7 attacks, 650 pts)

A Black Orc Warboss with a great axe and Imbad's Iron Gnashas would have 5 S7 attacks...

I'm sure there are plenty that are close but not exactly that..... a Skaven warlord with additional hand weapon and the bands of power gets 5 S8 attacks, but getting BoP off is unlikely unless you have enough magic to use up your opponents dispell dice. A frenzied warlord with fellblade would have 5 S10 attacks.

A Dwarf lord with a weapon that had the runes of might and fury would have 5 S8 attacks against any opponent T5 or greater.

You can configure a Saurus Old Blood to have ( 9 ) str. 5 attacks and move 9" charge 18" thru woods at no penalty for exactly 300 points - howz dat = )

If you equip the Saurus Oldblood with the Scimitar of the Sun Resplendent(+2 Attacks, 50 pts), and the Maiming Shield(+1 AS, +1 Attack, 30 pts) and the Bane Head(All unsaved wounds are doubled), you have a possbility of s5 8 attacks and any wound that is made is doubled, giving a possibility of 16 wounds!

If you give the Oldblood the Spawning of Sotek(When Charges, get +1 attack for that round of combat), giving a possibility of s5 9 attacks. Now imagine putting the Oldblood on a Carnosaur:

s5 8-9 attacks(Oldblood) + s6 4 attacks(Carnosaur)

@Duckass: Yes, that's true.

And I believe and Ogre Tyrant with a Great Weapon works too... Give the Ogre a certain magic item (can't remember the name), he gets 5 S8 attacks. Vicious, huh?
But I can't be bothered to find out the points now... sorry.

Wow, I didn't know there were that many. Well, I'm off to make my own house rules guy, with 5 s7, and no armor. It'll be fair enough.

Then give a wardsave or he will die fast-fast (and perhaps a high toughness will help 2! high for skaven=4)

There's no reason a warlord couldn't take that sword too btw. =p
And for that matter, a warlord or master assassin could generate 6 attacks at str 8 with bands of power and blade of black fury. Plaguelord would get 1 more for his frenzy.
Then of course you can't forget Snikch, six str5 attacks(str9 with bands). Verman lord is six str6, no save attacks which is also fairly close to what you were looking for.

So yes, there's an awful lot of stuff out there to use as examples of point costs.
