Bienvenidos a los túneles (Your english is way better than my spanish) It is interesting to read some spanish translations of skaven-related words i.e. PataRápida I have to tell you, that in order to respect the copyright of GW, we are not allowed to post detailed pointcosts, but just the totals of units/characters. If you haven't read the forum rules : http://underempire.net/index.php?showtopic=10394 or the FAQ : http://underempire.net/index.php?showtopic=24829 I most friendly advice you to do it. Actually there is a lot of good stuff hidden there. However I am not the best armybuilder, but it is nice to see you including assassins and other Eshin troops. They are fun to use. (Just mentioning it, before others tell you that PataRápida is too expensive )Do visit us at the dark side :ph43r: http://underempire.net/index.php?showforum=1 |

I would choose first one. But I would also make some changes. First of all I would drop: -number Clanrats to 25 -Assasin I think another unit of 25 Clanrats would be suitable for 2000 pts army. Also I think there is not enough Night Runners in Your army. If you have only one mage in army he should has more deffensive equipment so drop Demon Storm and get another Dispel Scroll. If your enemy have some mages You won't have any chance to make any spell worked so deffensive mage IMO be better. Equipment of Warlord is also I think not as good as it could be. For better option look at this army list LINK Greetings EDIT ooo and also change banner in Stormvermin unit. It should be War banner IMO

@Morgoth
Don't think that... This post take me hours in complete xD
I don't know how sounds an English-Skaven.. But I love their reduced vocabulary calling everything "~thing" xD But... In spanish "Green-Thing" is "Cosa-Verde", "Dead-Thing" is "Cosa-Muerta" and so on... It Doesn't change completely... But the Orcs have a complete new vocabulary... like a magic object called "Mejor cachivache pa'l que manda" or "Lanza Pinchoz" or "Pinchapuercos de Porko"... xD And personally, we call the Orc's Boar like "Chancho", an Argentine expression for "Pig" =P
Oops =( I'm very sorry ._. I've already read the rules and the FAQ... But in the task of translating all the names of the units I forgot it...
Yes =) I love the Assassin... And my PataRápida over all xD Maybe he's a lot of points that could cover a weakness of my Army... And it's only 1 vulnerable miniature... But, it grants me a good and quick fighter who when is hide it plays with my opponent's mind... :ph43r: Maybe I'm wrong and it's worthless... But I say it again.. I'm a novice who never played asking advice Someday I'll try another character or units for that points and tell what happen ._. ------------------------------------------- @Kaz!o
Mmm... Originally, the number of Clan Rats was 25 with Spears... I've thought that with 30 with Swords will be fine because I can get a more wide unit to with more attacks and more resistant to casualties... In your experience in 2K games, is 25 rats have a chance to make a difference? If this is so, then may choose it to reduce costs... And the Assassin... I simply like it =$
If I can do some space, I like the idea of some more Clan Rats... The Night Runners are cheap, so they can easily fit in the list... But I have to drop something for this 2... [Don't look to my PataRápida Assassin!!! =$ =P] In the other hand... Is worth to drop the Daemon for a One-Use Dispel Scroll? Sincerely I never thought about the real value of the DS... Maybe it's because I never suffered by the enemy's magic... I will bear it in mind...
Mmm.. I've thought to give my Klawk TresPatas [The Warlord] a good salvation to protect him... So I focused to give him the Warpstone Amulet and the Warpstone Armor+Shield to make him harder to kill... That sword is what the few remaining points could buy xD
Mmm.. That's Ok... The War Banner always give the +1 CR... Instead, the Banner of the Swarm versus Orcs&Goblins can be useless... [By the way... What's IMO? =P] So... Now I will think on how enhance my list with this tips... But later because I'm at the "work" =P Thanks and Squeaks to all! =) PD: Sorry for the Ultra-Giant post xD

IMO = in my opinion ![]() The way You think about getting wider Clanrat unit is good, but from my experience I realised that "the more skaven on table the more fun game is" (I don't know if I used good phrase)

Both lists are good, I would recommend the first list for the warlord's superior leadership. A few suggestions for the first list: That magic sword is over-priced, give your warlord a great weapon for a fraction of the cost. Certainly keep the warp stone amulet, and the warpstone armor is good as well. You do not need so many ratling guns, 2 is plenty. Use those extra 60 points for another unit of slaves. Warbanner would be better for your stormvermin. Keep the clanrats at 30 strong, units of 25 are too small. |

OFF: Again.. Sorry my poor english xD Yesterday I started my english lessons =) ON: After some weeks I'm back =) Now.. I've refined both of my lists.. And this what I've got =) This time I've deleted the individual's and the unit's cost =P ---------------------------------------------------- 1 Klawk TresPatas (Warlord) General + Shield Desolate Sword + Warpstone Armor + Warpstone Amulet <-- Maybe I should reconsider when start to play =P 1 RatSpark (Warlock Engineer) Warp Blades + Warp Energy Condenser + Warp Power Acummulator Storm Deamon + Dispel Scroll 1 Ishkik PataRápida (Assassin) Warpstone Shurikens 24 StormVermin 1 Fang Leader Halberd + Heavy Armor + Standard Bearer + Musician Warbanner 30 Clanrat Light Armor + Shield + Standard Bearer + Musician 1 Rattling Gun 30 Clanrat Light Armor + Shield + Standard Bearer + Musician 1 Rattling Gun 5 Night Runners 5 Night Runners 20 Slaves 21 Slaves 18 Giant Rat Packs <-- Or drop and get +5 Poison Wind Globadier +2 Jezzail for more Firepower/Anti-Heavy Guys [Or any combination for 90 points] 20 Plague Monks 2º Weapon + Standard Bearer + Musician Banner of Burning Hatred 5 Warplock Jezzails 5 Gutter Runners Tunneling Team 2º Weapon with Poison 5 Plague Censer Bearers 1 Warp-Lightning Cannon Casting Pool: 4 Dispel Pool: 3 Models in Army: 198 Total Cost: 2000 ---------------------------------------------------- 1 Rattenvoer el Infame (Gray Seer) General Warpstone Amulet + Eye of Horned Rat 1 Icklock (Warlock Engineer) Warp Blades + Warp Energy Condenser + Warp Power Acummulator Storm Deamon + Dispel Scroll 1 Ishkik PataRápida (Assassin) Warpstone Shurikens 25 StormVermin Halberd + Heavy Armor + Shield + Standard Bearer + Musician Warbanner 30 Clanrat 1 Rattling Gun Light Armor + Shield + Standard Bearer + Musician 30 Clanrat 1 Rattling Gun Light Armor + Shield + Standard Bearer + Musician 20 Slaves 20 Slaves 5 Nightrunners 12 Giant Rat Pack 12 Giant Rat Pack <-- Or drop and get +4 Poison Wind Globadier +1 Jezzail for more Firepower/Anti-Heavy Guys [Or any combination for 60 points] 5 Warplock Jezzails 5 Gutter Runners Tunneling Team 2º Weapon with Poison 4 Ogre Rats 1 Warp-Lightning Cannon Casting Pool: 8 Dispel Pool: 5 Models in Army: 182 Total Cost: 2000 ---------------------------------------------------- What do you think? =) I like them :> Maybe I start using the Warlord's List.. Because the Magic phase is more little... Until I get into the Game's Rhythm... I think that it should be more easy... My first opponent will be my Friend, who have an Orcs & Goblins Army... He has a Black Orc Kaudillo [I don't know the English name =P] and a Night Goblin Chaman... Also, the units are very big... 40 Night Goblins.. 30 Orc Boyz... 30 Savage Orcs... 15 Boars and so on... A few units... But all in a heavy quantity =P He told me that it's only tactic it's to go straight to fight my rats... He think that he can win by Brute Force... But I will try to use some tricky movements that I've read here :> So... Any more advice from the Veteran Warlords? =) Shall I pray to the Horned Rat the night before the battle? Should I send some Assassins to get rid of the Black Orc Kaudillo? Which nasty disease should I unleash to punish the weak troops? :> A million thanks to everybody =) |

Both lists are excellent. I would recommend using the warlord list as it provides better leadership. A few suggestions for the first list: With your warlord, the desolate blade is not an effective weapon for its point cost, take a great weapon or weeping blades instead. Since you only have one warlock engineer, the Accumulator is unnecessary because the warlock is unable to use the extra dice it provides. Use the 15 points to get more stormvermin. Hope this helps. |
