Very nice. For once I have nothing to add that will be useful. Nice job, let us know how you do with the list. |

Thank you muchly, Aeschere, and you having nothing to add really is something I'll take as a compliment! You and everyone else have been most helpful in getting this list to a point it needs to be, and quite obviously it's there While you might not have anything to add, I'm very curious to see just what you, Aeschere would do with a 2000 point list led by a Grey Seer on a Screaming Bell. I could use your example as a future base for an army if this one doesn't work out so well, or I want to some variation. If you could post such a list(even in rough form) here, I'd be more than grateful...and also excited to see what another Skaven tactical genius comes up with Thanks again! |

Sure, I have an appointment at work in 5 minutes but once he is away I will see what I can come up with (yes, I actually brought the army book to work this time ;-) And thanks for the kind words. |

Well after fiddling around a bit I have come to this list. Not really sure about it though. 1 Grey Seer; Screaming Bell, Tenebrous Cloak, Warpstone Charm, Warp Scrol 520 1 Warlock Engineer; kit-pistol, Storm Deamon 110 1 Warlock Engineer; kit-pistol, Eye of the Horned Rat 110 1 Chieftain; BSB, Heavy Armor, Umbranner 109 23 Clan Rats; Musician, Banner 130 24 Clan Rats; Musician, Banner, Ratling gun 195 24 Clan Rats; Musician, Banner, Ratling gun 195 25 Clan Rats; Musician, Banner 140 22 Clan Rat Slaves; Musician 48 23 Clan Rat Slaves; Musician 50 23 Clan Rat Slaves; Musician 50 5 Night Runners 25 5 Night Runners 25 6 Night Runners 30 20 Plague Monks; Additional Hand weapon, FC, BoBH 210 3 Gutter Runners; Tunneling Team, Poisoned hand weapons 51 Total Points: 2000 Models: 207 Power Dice: 12 It still has 200+ models, a nasty magic phase but not a whole lot of shooting so it should be balanced enough. I am not sure about the 12 power dice though. It might be to much since the trend looks like it is being limited to 10. If that is the case I will seriously consider removing the engineer with the eye of the hornet rat and replace him with a plague priest with an additional hand weapon and the warpstone armour. First time I attempt a grey seer list so there could be some mistakes in there (especially in the magic item department) but I am quite happy with the troop selection. |

Ouch...I LOVE that list, Aeschere! Mind if I..."borrow" it sometime? Seriously, that's a nasty looking list, and if I may so so, a bit better than mine. There's a few things I'd change(personal preference), but wow...I feel a bit outdone

Sure, borrow what you want. Personally I like the Plague censer bearers that you have included. And I was really doubting if I was to include some jezzails but decided to add some more plague monks instead. Glad I could be of some help. Good luck with the list. |

Here's my take on that, Aeschere, adding in some of the units that I see as a bit of a personal trademark when it comes to my army lists. Let me know what you think. Grey Seer- Screaming Bell Tenebrous Cloak Eye of the Horned Rat Warpstone Token Warpstone Charm Warlock Engineer- Warp Blades Upgraded Warp Energy Condenser Supercharged Warp Power Accumulator Storm Daemon Warlock Engineer- Warp Blades Upgraded Warp Energy Condenser Supercharged Warp Power Accumulator Death Globes Warp Scroll Chieftan- Battle Standard War Banner 24 Clanrats- Musician Standard Bearer 29 Clanrats- Musician Standard Bearer Ratling Gun 25 Clanrats- Musician Standard Bearer Ratling Gun 23 Slaves- Musician 23 Slaves- Musician 22 Slaves- Musician 5 Poisoned Wind Globaiders 5 Night Runners- Additional Hand Weapons 5 Night Runners- Throwing Stars 20 Plague Monks- Additional Hand Weapons Musician Standard Bearer Banner of Burning Hatred Deacon 6 Plague Censer Bearers TOTAL-2000pts. Come to think of it, it looks a lot like my previous list, just more magic heavy! Cool. It has fewer numbers than Aeschere's, which is never good, but sits right around 191(almost 200) models. Not bad. |

I've been thinking, and I've been wondering if, since weapons teams are relatively easy for an enemy to get rid of, if it would be reasonable to remove one of the Ratling Guns from my list and replace it with 2 Giant Rat Packs. They could make for an excellent flanking force... |

i love the bell and my 2000pt list always fields the bell.. i find the extra dice and 360 line of sight a great help, +2 magic resistance and making the unit immune to psychology and when it rings...... it has won me a 2000pt game on its own before, against a bret knight player i got a 9 or a 10 and 3/4 of his army fled off the board. the WLC is my other favourite in 2000pts - it is a great VC killer |

Daniel cannot possibly exist in a dimensional state. Recent studies show that people who have attempted to comprehend Daniel have either disappeared, died spontaneously, or driven themselves into a pertinent state of insanity and/or catatonia. <img src="http://www.heresy-online.net/daemons/adoptables/23041.gif" alt="Broken Adoptable Image" /><br><a href="http://www.heresy-online.net/daemons/levelup/23041-dark-whisper.htm" title="Level up this Daemon!">Level up Adoptable!</a> | |

Thanks, bakfire! It's good to see the Bell can hold it's own and make something worthwhile happen every now and then. Of course, the Immune to Psychology it gives to its' bearer unit comes in handy too....Particularly against Vampire Counts. |

That is outstanding Skrost. However with so much magic, those globadiers seem unnecessary. I would recommend dropping them and using the points to expand the clanrats, especially the unit of 25. Dropping a weapon team for the giant rats would certainly be beneficial. |
