Both the slaves and clanrats are both way too samll IMO. Usualy you wont 40 slaves and 30 clanrats at the minimum per unit. The Grand banner of Clan superiorty isnt that great, there is a comon magic banner that, for 5 points less (since we use the army book's points listed, not the rule book's) that consistantly gives you +2, while the clan banner has a 2/3 chance of doing as good as or worse, and only a 1/3 chance of doing better.

other wise it looks pretty good

Playing skaven to minimize randomness is like going to prom with your sister, you can do it if you really want, but in the end everyone will still laugh even if you do get lucky.

I always take at least one Warpfire Thrower. You can't always rely on your opponent to do massive damage to your troops. Sometimes, you just have to do a job yourself.

The problem I see with this list is all the units. It would be easy for your opponent to overrun and therfore kill 2 units at once and then hammer and anvil strike the rest of your units afterwards. I suggest linking the RO togetherin one unit as a force for a powerful unit.

Think also for example an army not capable of hammer and anvil in this manner, like WE.
They have very many irritating units that fires accuraty bow-fire at your units. What he would do is easy, kill your RO's in fire, deal with the HPA someway and then finish off the rest of your army in close-up fighting.

Not that I am an expert on the WE tactics but if your list can have a problem against WE, you should change around a bit.
