a slann is a ok idea when it changes... but what about when an oldblood riding a carnasuar in a unit of foot troops is targetted. if the oldblood is a valid taret in tatunit hen do you get 2 models for it or just one... and can you picture turning a carnasuar into a clanrat... lol.

just played agains VC and attempted to cast it 4 times:
1st turn: misscast
2nd turn: miscast
3rd turn: 19/20 grave guard dead, no rats :(
4th turn: 12 grave guards and a mounted vampire lord turn to clanrats... he concedes :D
It would be ugly to watch people poking sticks at a caged rat. It is uglier still to watch rats poking sticks at a caged person.


13th spell casts: 2 Kills: 32 Grave Guard,1 Vampire Lord

Mounted guys in infantry - Valid targets, count as one model, even carnosaurs
Big guys in infantry - Valid targets, count as one model
Others stealing your spell - Invalid, as counts as a summoning spell (yes yes technically they mutate, but under the rules its a removal + summon, thems the breaks and there ain't no arguing RAW)
Skaven v. Skaven - Doesn't make much sense, but whatever you targeted (slaves, SV, CRs) would become CRs and be on your side. Again, RAW strikes a blow. Agree with Vertink here, a simple "non-Skaven" inserted before the word "infantry" would solve this issue in the errata.

I actually manage to get the 13th spell off 2 time in the mega-battle I played on saturday. The frist one ate a unit of 14 thunderers depositing 14 clanrats with everything in the midst of a dwarf gunline for some great charges. The second time I cast it on a unit of marauders with Wolfrick taking all but the standard and wolfrick down, killed 14 out of 16 and making them tactically useless :D .

Used the 13th spell for first time yesterday against DoC

1st try was IF and 13 deamonettes died...
2nd try was 6 dices of total value 28 (no dispelcroll as he played slaanesh) and 13/14 deamonettes died =)
3rd try failed to work and then GS was eaten alive in cc by 4 seekers directing all attacks on him =(

Allin all impressed with the new skaven magic

You do realize that Grail Knights are not exactly infantry, right? :P

Neither is a mounted Vamp lord!

On a side note: This may seem like cheating, but he did not ask, so I did not tell! And in my German Book it does not say that it must be Infantry

Shennanigans are out of the question!
I was at the table next to a Skaven vs WoC game at a local tourney this weekend. The game that was REALLY close the whole time, and on the bottom of the 6th, the skaven player popped the 13th on irresistible with 3 dice and evaporated the WoC unit of 12 Chosen, sneaking out a minor victory. 12 points from major victory.

Even though I was busy losing my own game, it was REALLY fun to watch that one happen.

And ruined a perfectly executed plan by a fellow Skaven player to kill BOTH those nasty Lizardmen AND some Ogres! :P Well.. maybe not THAT perfect...
