Unsuspected Battle At The Tomb Of The Lost Ones

Clan Krit thought pillaging those tombs would be easy, but they soon realized that this time would be different. As soon as they approached the gates, their whole bodies became cold. Standing tall before a small, archaic crypt, a menacing shadow appeared. The silhouette raised its arms in the air, making the ground tremble before the rats' feet.

Quills hastily dispatched his men: they would to approach the crypt slowly, each officer taking a small squad with them to search for valuables.

"UNDEAD-DEAD!" squeeked 'Eeks, pointing towards the tombs. One after another, bones emerged from the soil. More came from behind the crypt. Two groups of corpses quickly formed, the silhouette joining the nearest ones. The ratmen could barely advance anymore, seeing the dead walking before them.

Suddenly, loud squeeks of fear could be heard could be heard from the left-most group, along with crackling noises. Quills saw his warriors flee, followed by some sort of carriage.
"Ssof'!" he squeeked, pointing at the structure.
"Of coursssse" Ssof' nodded, as he prepared to destroy it.

But what Quills didn't see was the undead advancing, almost reaching the skavens. The moment Ssof's lightning reached the carriage, ripping it apart, the first bones were shattered. The ratmen made their way through a first wave of the walking dead, but more were coming, and more rats preferred to leave and not risk their lives.

As Quills group finally emerged from a mass of bones, they saw more and more bodies and bones coming from their left. Where 'Eeks' group, with many of the strongest rats, should be.

"Vampire, too ssstrong!" he screamed.
"RETREAT!" Quills ordered. "Thisss treasure isn't worth the price"



So I guess this is the beginning of my fluff for Nemesis, as I played my first battle today. Slight win against VC ^_^ Though I was annoyed at that big 600+ points block of skeletons with vampire going through my stormvermins like gnoblars...

I wrote this fluff while watching TV, so I don't expect it to be great or anything. But I don't really have time for fluff anymore, so that's "the best I can do for now". I'd like it if you appreciate it anyway :)

Not boring at all skavenguy, I'm guessing people are wading through mountains of stories at the moment :)

For some reason the line

has stuck with me - it's funny, as it indicates the rats had a choice in the matter! :D

So I take it this is a precursor to a second chapter?

If you'd look at the "Canada" thread of the Nemesis Crown section, you'd know I already have 4 other chapters planned. I'd like to do 1 chapter per game I play, even if they're small. Anyway, I checked and this chapter is 300 words or something (thus rather small) and it's about 2/3 of what Games-Workshop allows.

You'll have to excuse Sneaky there, your Lordship, for not putting two-and-two together about those battles you played and would report..somehow... or maybe for not having read your post about your 4 battles...or maybe for just not mentioning it.
Who cares anyway...

He took the time to read your report & even commenting on the content and showing interest in the next chapters..

Replies like yours will surely help, I'm guessing. ;)

P.S: and if you must know; bit short, but a nice story characterful skaven story nonetheless. It looked like a defeat when I read it (not like a small win), but meh.
Atleast you're fighting! *bsb*

Er... I didn't mean to be offensive or anything. Justy mentioning that it was also posted there. Sorry if you took it that way.


But the battle ended with the one, single unit of 60+ skeletons keeping growing. But I didn't kill them or anything. So I thought it would be the best way to put it.
