Here’s my 2250pts army, which I’ll hopefully be taking to face some vampires on Sunday. I’d appreciate any thoughts or feedback you have. Model-wise I have roughly 10 spare slave models, a Verminlord/Warplightning cannon, 3 rat-ogres, 2 pack-masters and multiple rats (there’s a variety of rats on the doomwheel sprue and others).




215pts - Warrenshredder Glitterfang, Warlord: Warlitter, Warlock augmented weapon, Shield of Distraction, Skalm

150pts - Warlock Engineer: Lv 2 wizard, Doom Rocket, Warp-Energy condensor
165pts - Warlock Engineer: Lv 2 wizard, Warpmusket, Dispell scroll, Dispell scroll
185pts - Plague Priest: Lv 2 wizard, Warp forged blade

161.5pts - 21x Clanrats: Shields, Musician, Standard Bearer, Doom-flayer Lead by the warlord.
120pts - 24x Clanrats: Shields, Musician, Standard Bearer Joined by Doom-rocket Warlock
52pts - 25x Skavenslaves: Musician
52pts - 25x Skavenslaves: Musician
214pts - 22x Night runners: Warp-grinder Either place the tunnel near warmachines, or in the middle of the battlefield to worry opponents...
75pts - 17x Giant rats, 3x Packmasters
75pts - 17x Giant rats, 3x Packmasters

190pts - 20x Plague monks: Musician, Standard bearer, Bringer-of-the-word, Banner of the Underempire My hammer unit, with the banner to help ward off dem poncy ‘elves with their ASF. Will house the plague priest for a 7x3 unit.
100pts - 5 Jezzails Scroll-‘lock joins this unit to add to the fusillade. Jezzails provide some ablative wounds. Expensive wounds admittedly, but they come with a 4+ save.
109pts - 6 Plague Censor Bearers: Plague chanter

235pts - Hell Pit Abomination
150pts - Doomwheel Rollin’ rollin’ rolling’, keep those doggies skaven rollin’...

2248.5pts - 194 Models




Suggestions would be appreciated! It’s meant to be a fairly friendly list so if there’s something in there that looks horribly broken please let me know!

I really like this list. its very well thought through. for me I would break the rat packs up, but thats just me. the slave regiments are kind of big, and there is an odd number of night runners. just some minor tweaks is all
I had a cool picture but I lost it.

Well as much as I like the 2250pts list my opponent just contacted me to ask for a points increase. He’s had his girlfriend undercoating models and he’d like to field some new toys at 2500pts. Can I ask people to re-rate the list and come up with any suggestions?

100 pts 5 Jezzails
128 pts 8 Plague Censor Bearers

235 pts 1 Hell Pit Abomination
150 pts 1 Doomwheel

2498.5 pts 204 Models




One, among many, things I’m pondering is the weapons I’ve given the plague priest and warlord. For instance, should I swap the warp forged blade for the blade of corruption? Also: what about tooling a warlock up with an augmented weapon and possibly warpstone armour for combat? I’d be advancing with the clanrats and he’d provide a little extra bite to the unit.

Do I want to keep the rocket/condenser far away and hope I’m in range or stick them in a unit and shove them into my opponents face?

So many choices...
