Topic title says it all...

To start I'll quote Nemesis (quoted from the "25 mile high club" thread):

"PS On a side note, on his turn six his single-wound hydra charged my single remaining block of slaves. 8 hydra swings (frenzy) promptly became 8 kills. Then I broke... D3+1 = 4 S3 hits, I roll one 6 to wound, he rolls a 3 for his armor and 2 for his regen. Dead hydra. Best warhammer moment EVER."

I guess the surviving slaves are promoted to clanrats (skaven)

mine killed 3 ghouls and my doomflayer in the only game they exploded. they usually just run off for frenzy bating so don't get the chance to be broken in combat
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.

So far ive only had one game against dwarfs!

When my slave bomb broke from combat with a block of 25 dwarf warriors, they both blew 6 inches. :KA-BOOM:

This contacted the dwarves (obviously), of which they killed 2, my stormvermin of which they killed 6!, a unit of clan rats of which they killed 3 and my abomination which they wounded too!!!

Dammit, theres a lesson here though. Must give slaves more room!

Shennanigans are out of the question!
In two games they ahve performed particularly well.

I fed a block of slaves to some wardancers, and took out 4 of the 7 when the slaves popped as well as 2 clanrats and a nearby dryad.

I held up a giant with a unit of slaves for 3 turns. The first two turns, the giant stuffed a slave into his pants. By turn 3, he had taken 5 wounds (go, slaves, go!) from combat, got tired of being hit, and popped them with a sweep of his club. dying in the process.

All my slaves did was take out 2 or 3 of the skinks who had just beaten them.

Just curious, how was the Hydra subject to frenzy?

Probably lost it's Beastmasters, failed it's monster reaction test and rolled Raargh!

I had a unit of exploding slaves kill the last knight of a unit of Chaos knights. I laughed. My opponent charged a unit of slaves with a 10 man unit of Marauders with MoK (next to the knight in question) and won combat pretty easily. My slaves were 21 strong, he killed 6, leaving me 3 ranks for a total of d3+3 hits. I generated 5 hits. There were my opponents 2 units in range and a block of clan rats(fortunately the weapon team was just out of range). I killed 3 rats, 3 Marauders, and, miraculously, I rolled a 6 to wound on the knight and he rolled a 1 for his armor save. We both enjoyed a hearty laugh.

Last game I played against Tomb Kings.

I had 15 slaves left who got rear charged by a bone giant. He did 6 wounds and broke the slaves. I rolled a 6 for the range and ended up killing one of his priests straight out, put a wound on his heirophant, and killed a skeleton in a unit with his prince, missed the wounds on the bone giant and my plaguemonks. If he would have killed only 5 slaves, I would have taken out his heirophant from the extra rank.

So far, slaves are sooo much better than clanrats. Damn Clannies always fighting S6 guys so the armor is useless.

In a game against Dark Elves, the explosion caught and killed a wounded sorceress standing nearby! :D
It was priceless, 40pts taking out 150ish ^_^

my slaves have done alright. in the first game against VC. i got charged on turn 2 by a Vargulf. the combat lasted 2 turns. the first time i won combat by number and he lost two wounds from it. next turn he won and i fled. he had 2 wounds left and i managed to knock it to 1. that was funny.
surely cheese is more important than warpstone
